Navigating Insurance Issues in Uber and Lyft Accident Lawsuits in Albuquerque
Since Uber was founded in 2009, and Lyft in 2012, the landscape of rideshare services have changed significantly. Many Albuquerque citizens use both the Uber and Lyft applications to hail drivers and quickly get wherever they need to be, and often at a more manageable cost than with a taxi. These rideshare apps may provide immense convenience for users, but many times the drivers are not professionally trained individuals. This means that they are just as likely to cause and be involved in auto accidents as anyone else, and sometimes, due to increased distractions, even more likely to do so. If you are seeking to pursue a rideshare accident case in Albuquerque, NM, it is imperative that you hire experienced professionals to support you, like the attorneys at Carabin Shaw.

Navigating Insurance Issues in Uber and Lyft Accident Lawsuits in AlbuquerqueOne of the biggest reasons that expert consultation is so necessary after an Uber or Lyft accident is because of how convoluted the process of identifying insurance and liability can be. As with in any other city, the rideshare drivers in Albuquerque are contract-based. This means that they are not direct employees of Uber or Lyft and, as a result, Uber and Lyft are not inherently liable for accidents caused by drivers in some cases.
Depending on when or where an accident took place, Uber or Lyft’s insurance policies may not even come into play when a claim and case are filed. While both companies have blanket insurance policies, those policies only are involved in certain circumstances.
Hiring a Carabin Shaw Albuquerque rideshare accident lawyer means winning the guidance of an expert who has years of experience fighting for the compensation that rideshare accident victims are owed. Our lawyers understand the fine points, and complicated intricacies, of filing a claim involving a rideshare company. This includes identifying the at-fault party, identifying how liable Uber or Lyft is as a company, seeking the necessary and applicable insurance claims, and winning the absolute maximum compensation that you are owed as a victim.
