Seeking Compensation After Brooklyn Rideshare Accidents

Thousands of people use rideshare services like Uber and Lyft every day, entrusting their lives to drivers they have never met. Inevitably, some of these drivers make mistakes or get involved in serious accidents. The victims of Lyft and Uber accidents in New York – especially in Brooklyn – can often seek financial compensation if they have been injured due to the negligence of the rideshare driver or another party.

At Kaston & Aberle, LLP, we have decades of combined experience representing clients throughout the New York Metro Area and Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Our lawyers are known for empathy for our clients and an aggressive mindset when fighting for their rights. Meet with one of our attorneys to learn how you can seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages and more.

What Rights Do Passengers Have In Brooklyn Rideshare Accidents?

After an accident, Uber passengers’ rights include the right to seek compensation for both economic and noneconomic damages. This accident compensation can include lost wages, medical bills, long-term medical costs, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of consortium, loss of enjoyment of life, disability and disfigurement. Compensation should completely cover the costs of the accident, so it is crucial to explore all of these areas carefully – and never to accept a low settlement that will not cover the true cost of the crash.

Steps To Take After Being Involved In A Lyft Or Uber Accident In Brooklyn

After a Brooklyn rideshare accident, injured parties should:

  • Seek medical attention
  • Contact the authorities
  • Gather witness statements
  • Take pictures at the scene
  • Obtain copies of police reports and medical records

Additionally, it is important to meet with an experienced lawyer for Brooklyn Lyft and Uber accidents. Every case is unique, and a car accident attorney will help you protect your rights, determine what next steps to take and seek the compensation you deserve.
