Las Vegas, Nevada – /News Reported by LaGuardia Media and Public Relations/ — With rideshare crashes accounting for 15% of all vehicle-related incidents in Clark County and a 10% overall increase in the entire state in the last three years, it is safe to say that Uber/Lyft accidents are a growing concern in Las Vegas.

Whether the driver was at fault, another vehicle caused the accident, or there were issues with Uber’s insurance, I’ll work diligently to investigate your case and hold the responsible parties accountable” – Sam Ryan Heidari
Who is Liable?

In a rideshare accident, liability can fall on the negligent rideshare driver, another driver, or in some cases, the rideshare company itself. Your claim would first target the at-fault party's insurance, and if that's insufficient, the rideshare company's insurance policy will likely provide coverage. This includes Uber, Lyft, and other taxi services.
How Can You Be Compensated?

A passenger injured in a rideshare accident can be entitled to damages for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. These include both economic damages like hospital bills and lost income, and non-economic damages like emotional distress and a diminished quality of life. Depending on the circumstances, other damages can include property damage to personal items and, in cases of extreme negligence, punitive damages.
There are many moving parts when it comes to any personal injury case, but especially with one which includes a service-for-hire. Should you ever be involved in an accident as a passenger, consulting an experienced personal injury attorney to help you navigate the complexities of a rideshare accident case is highly recommended.
