Injured in a Lyft car accident? Farahi Law Firm’s experienced and knowledgeable Lyft car accident lawyers in Los Angeles are ready to give an aggressive fight and provide proper legal representation in an injury lawsuit against these big companies.
People find ridesharing services easier to use and cost effective over the traditional forms of transportation. Whether one wants to go to the office or needs a late-night ride from pub to home, almost people of all age groups prefer these rideshare services. Lyft has quickly become popular means of transport for Los Angeles residents and visitors along with Uber. It is basically an app on mobile phones that connects those in need of a ride with freelance car drivers.
The likelihood of a serious or fatal Lyft crash grows as more Los Angeles turn to ridesharing services like Lyft to navigate through the city. Victims in any accident deserve justice when someone else is at fault and the same goes for Lyft users. However, it isn’t always straightforward to hold the liable party accountable in Lyft accidents.
Our skilled Lyft car accident lawyers in Los Angeles at Farahi Law Firm, APC will provide knowledgeable and thorough litigation to hold Lyft or any other ridesharing company liable if they have behaved negligently or tried to escape blame for the accident.
Ridesharing companies like Lyft dominate the transportation market in Los Angeles. Uber of Lyft’s drivers use their own cars to transport passengers and are just like any other car driver you may encounter on the LA streets. And like all other motor vehicle drivers, they can engage in the types of negligent and reckless conduct that cause ridesharing accidents. Some common causes of Lyft accidents include:
Lyft’s drivers can be found financially liable for accidents arising from their negligent actions. They have a responsibility to ensure that their passengers are driven safely. You can be entitled to recover the compensation you deserve from the driver’s own insurance company policy and/or hold the Lyft company accountable in a lawsuit.
Ridesharing company’s insurance coverage can be confusing, but it is crucial to understand how and when Lyft policies can protect your rights in case you’re injured in a Lyft accident. Lyft provides three types of coverages:
The insurance coverage depends upon how the Lyft driver was using the app and was at what point in the process of offering rides to passengers when the accident happened. It’s further broken down into the following three periods:
Lyft driver’s personal insurance coverage applies.
Lyft’s primary liability coverage applies which is $50,000 for bodily injuries per person, $100,000 for bodily injuries per accident victim, and $30,000 for property damage. Lyft will also maintain $200,000 of excess liability coverage during this period.
Lyft’s primary liability coverage applies with $1 Million of coverage per accident. Lyft’s policy will continue to be excess to driver’s personal insurance coverage. In the event of an accident with an uninsured or underinsured motorist, Lyft’s UM/UIM coverage applies.
In California, Lyft provides comprehensive and collision coverage as long as the Lyft drivers have collision coverage on their personal car insurance. Expect to pay a deductible of $2,500 before Lyft provides cover for any physical damages to the vehicle.
Injured in a Lyft crash as a passenger, the first thing you should do is to seek medical attention. If it’s possible for you to gather any evidence about the incident, try to do so. Note down Lyft driver details or any other third-party details, take pictures of the scene, collect witness contact information, etc. as these help in your personal injury lawsuit.
Begin documenting the medical bills, days off work, and other damages and expenditures connected with the accident claim. Last but not the least, contact qualified Lyft car accident lawyers in Los Angeles like Farahi Law Firm, APC as soon as possible after the crash.
Working as a middleman between the driver and the passenger, TNCs often try to avoid liability in case an accident occurs.

We know the complicated rules involving Lyft accident liability, and will be ready to go that extra mile to get you and your family the maximum compensation for your injuries.
Lyft’s insurance agent can contact you after a Lyft accident, and try to persuade you to agree to a swift payout. Although a quick deal can be enticing, don’t consider it unless you consult with a skilled Lyft car accident lawyer. Initial settlement offers by these big firms’ insurers are always less than the case’s actual worth. Secure your rights by consulting with an experienced Lyft accident attorney, and aim for the compensation that you truly deserve.

The statute of limitations to file a Lyft car accident claim in Los Angeles is similar to that of any other motor vehicle crash. If you or a loved one sustained personal injuries in a Lyft accident, you have two years to file for an injury claim from the accident date. Missing this time limit will disqualify your claim and you will not be able to claim any compensation from the liable party. So, it’s vital to have an experienced Lyft car accident attorney to handle your case.
Injured in a Lyft car accident in Los Angeles, you can make claims for your economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include past and future medical expenses, lost wages and future loss of income, repair of damaged cars and other out-of-pocket expenses. Non-economic damages cover things like pain, emotional distress, loss of affection or companionship, and disability or disfigurement. Discuss your case with a qualified Lyft accident lawyer to build a strong personal injury claim and to evaluate the compensation available for your case.
Involved in a Lyft car accident, how much it will cost to hire an attorney to represent your case should be the last thing you need to worry about. Most Los Angeles personal injury attorneys work on “contingency fee” basis, which means attorney’s fees will not get paid unless they successfully recover money for the case. Farahi Law Firm’s experienced legal professionals provide a no-win, no-fee guarantee to make sure you don’t pay any money out-of-pocket. And our contingency fee rate is very competitive. Don’t let Lyft’s insurance company take advantage of your inexperience, contact us today.
Lyft car passengers have the right to pursue compensation in the event they are injured in a crash. If it was the Lyft car driver’s fault in the crash they can make a claim against him or the Lyft company. And if it was some third party’s negligence that caused the accident, Lyft passengers can make a claim against this third party. Even if there is an issue in establishing liability, passengers can seek compensation by making claims against the insurance providers for each driver who was partially at fault. Lyft provide $1 Million liability coverage to their passengers for any accident occurring during the trip in Lyft cars. Injured as a Lyft car passenger in a car crash? Contact our expert Lyft car accident lawyers in Los Angeles to recover 100% of your compensation you need to restore your life to its pre-accident condition.
Having legal assistance from an expert attorney after a Lyft car accident is the best decision. Without their expertise, Lyft’s insurance provider is likely to take advantage of your naivety, and deny your claim or just try to lower the settlement value way less than the case’s real worth. It’s important to know they operate for their own interests, not for yours. On the other hand, an informed lawyer is always willing to stand up to these giant corporations and protect your legal rights as an injured victim.
