How To Prove Fault in an Uber/Lyft Accident Case
Since the insurance company requires proof of your claim, you will need to provide evidence of fault and liability. Your attorney can obtain evidence of your claim from various sources, such as:
- Highway patrol official accident report, as required by Florida Statute §316.066
- Video footage or photos of the accident scene
- Eyewitness statements (passengers in the car, third-party motorists)
- Expert witness testimony
- Medical diagnosis and reports of your injuries
- Receipts and bills of all your accident-related expenses
We can gather all of the evidence and submit it to the insurance company for review. All the evidence that we provide may both establish liability and estimate the value of your claim.

Getting Compensated for Your Damages
Both Uber and Lyft carry similar types of liability insurance to cover all accidents in which the rideshare driver was at fault. Per Florida Statute §627.748, the coverage is $100,000 per incident, depending on the circumstances of the accident.
Like any other personal injury case, the value of your claim depends on the nature of the accident, who is at fault, and the extent of your damages. Some of the damages you may be eligible to claim include:
Your Medical Debt
You may account for your medical expenses such as emergency care or surgical procedures, an extended stay in the hospital, rehabilitative services, ongoing doctor visits, and medication.
Lost Pay While You Were Out of Work
If your recovery takes several weeks or months, you may lose pay. You may account for your lost wages in your claim. Lost income may also include future earning capacity if you are disabled and can no longer work.
Additional Damages
You may also account for noneconomic damages such as severe pain and suffering, loss of quality of life, loss of consortium, physical impairment, or disfigurement. Your damages may include long-term expenses from a terminal condition.
