Uber and other ridesharing accidents are becoming more common in San Bernardino. These crashes often lead to serious injuries, high medical bills, and confusing insurance questions. If you were hurt in a rideshare accident, you may have the right to seek compensation. At Bobby Shamuilian California Personal Injury Attorney at Law, we fight for rideshare accident victims and help them through the legal process.
At Bobby Shamuilian California Personal Injury Attorney at Law, we have strong experience handling Uber accident claims and Lyft accident cases across Southern California. Our team understands how rideshare services operate and how to deal with the unique issues tied to insurance policies, liability coverage, and California laws.
We know how the Uber driver app works, how the rideshare model affects insurance, and how to gather strong evidence from traffic collision reports, witness statements, and medical records. From bodily injury to property damage or lost wages, we aggressively pursue fair compensation from insurers or at-fault parties.
Many rideshare accidents in San Bernardino occur due to driver errors or external issues with their driving history, or failure to follow dangers. Our law firm has extensive experience managing injury claims resulting from:
Such accidents can cause significant physical harm, emotional distress, or fatal outcomes. Whether the accident occurs on a main road or near public transit, a legal team familiar with rideshare complexities is essential. We investigate each accident scene using tools like surveillance footage, police reports, and vehicle maintenance data to build strong legal claims.
In Uber or Lyft accident claims, more than one party may be responsible. At Bobby Shamuilian California Personal Injury Attorney at Law, we break down every detail to find who should pay for your injuries and collision damages.
Uber’s coverage includes different liability policies depending on ride status. If the app is off, only the driver’s personal auto insurance applies. Limited coverage applies if the Uber app is on without an accepted ride. During an active ride, Uber offers up to $1 million in liability insurance. If the other driver has no coverage, uninsured or underinsured motorist policies may help. We handle the insurance gaps, the claim negotiation, and every part of your personal injury lawsuit.
After a rideshare traffic collision, taking the right steps is key. Take these steps to defend your health and protect your rights:
The sooner you take action, the stronger your insurance claim or legal representation can be.
Rideshare crashes often result in serious or hidden injuries. At our personal injury law firm, we see victims suffer:
Some symptoms don’t show up right away. You may feel fine at the scene but experience pain hours or days later. Always seek medical attention quickly and follow up with your doctor. Early care not only protects your health but also helps support your personal injury claims with strong medical records.
Our legal team works diligently to ensure that rideshare accident victims receive the support they need. We help identify whether to file against the rideshare driver’s personal insurance, Uber’s liability policy, or an uninsured motorist policy. Many people are unaware that Proposition 22 impacts how ridesharing services handle insurance coverage.
We gather strong evidence, including California Highway Patrol reports, rideshare app data, and witness statements. Our team also works with Lyft accident attorneys and experts to review surveillance footage and crash details. If comparative negligence is an issue, we’ll fight to ensure fault is fairly divided.
We deal directly with insurance companies, saving you the stress of medical bills and paperwork. If needed, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial. Our firm offers free consultations, and you don’t pay us unless we win. That’s our no-risk, no-win-no-fee promise.
Rideshare accident injuries could entitle you to compensation through a personal injury claim. The value of your case depends on the type of harm and losses you suffered, which may include:
We pursue maximum compensation under California law, whether you’re an injured passenger, driver, or pedestrian. We’ve helped clients in Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and beyond hold rideshare services and their insurers accountable.
In California, you usually have two years from the accident date to submit a personal injury claim. If you're filing on behalf of a child or a loved one who passed, or if your injury wasn’t discovered right away, you may have more time.
In some cases—especially if a city vehicle or public agency is involved—deadlines can be even shorter. That’s why it’s critical to act fast. Waiting too long can cause you to lose your right to seek compensation. Quick action helps us gather strong evidence, preserve rideshare data, and request important records from the California Highway Patrol, insurance carriers, or the Uber app.
Yes. Uber cases involve complex insurance coverage and corporate teams. A lawyer helps protect your rights and fights for fair compensation.
Uber uses a tiered insurance policy based on the driver’s status in the Uber app. If the driver was active, their liability insurance may apply.
It’s rare. Uber drivers are classified as independent contractors under Proposition 22. However, their insurance coverage may still be accessed through legal action.
You may be covered by Uber’s policy or the other driver’s personal insurance. A lawyer can determine which insurance claim is best.
We don’t charge upfront. Our personal injury law firm works on contingency—you only pay if we win your case.
