Why Houston Victims Shouldn't Accept a Quick Settlement Offer from Uber or Lyft

Being injured in a rideshare accident is overwhelming, and victims of such accidents in Houston rarely know what their options are for legal recourse without speaking to an expert attorney. When you agree to enter a vehicle with an Uber or Lyft driver, you probably don’t expect to suffer a grievous injury because of another person’s negligence. Additionally, physical injuries are rarely the only damages suffered. Many victims face expensive medical costs, lost work time, and other unexpected consequences that cause incredible financial hardship. If you are seeking to pursue an Uber or Lyft accident lawsuit, working alongside Carabin Shaw’s experienced lawyers will ensure that you win your maximum financial settlement.

After a rideshare accident, it is likely that the at-fault party will pressure you into accepting a quick settlement. They prey on victims who don’t know their full rights, and offer settlements that are far below the value of the damages suffered. So why should you work with an expert attorney after such an accident?

An insurance company is no friend to a personal injury victim. Marketing campaigns may claim that insurance companies exist to look out for those who have suffered accidents, but they are a business like any other. The ultimate goal of an insurance company is to make money off of you, and to give you as little money as possible, even after a crisis.

Some insurance companies encourage victims to sign releases and take actions that are not in the best interests of the victim. When you are fighting for a Houston Uber accident settlement, you deserve someone who will fight alongside you and protect your best interests. The attorneys at Carabin Shaw will do just that.

Liability, in the case of a rideshare accident, is complicated. Employment with Uber and Lyft is unique to many other employment agreements, meaning that establishing liability can be difficult and unclear without the decades of experience that Carabin Shaw attorneys have.

While Uber and Lyft will try to undervalue your claim, hiring a skilled attorney guarantees that such companies cannot take advantage of you. Damages that can be included in a personal injury case can be

• Medical expenses
• Loss of income
• Pain and suffering
• Disfigurement and scarring

And other types of damages. The attorneys at Carabin Shaw have helped clients to win their full legal compensation for over thirty years, and our results can be seen at Carabin Shaw’s client reviews.

After a rideshare accident, the last thing you need is to fight against big companies trying to take advantage of you. Schedule your free case review with Carabin Shaw, and begin your path to winning the justice that you and your family deserve.
