Uber and Lyft are two of the most popular rideshare services available in the Los Angeles area. Uber and Lyft have been very successful throughout the years. Unfortunately, some of Uber and Lyft’s successes have been overshadowed by many accusations against these rideshare companies and their drivers. There have been allegations of physical fights, physical assaults, sexual assaults, and other attacks against Uber and Lyft drivers. There have also been instances where passengers attack their drivers. If you were the victim of an attack while you were using or working for one of these ride-sharing services, you might have grounds to file a lawsuit against Uber, Lyft, and the party that directly harmed you. Would you like to learn more about your right to file a lawsuit after being victimized by someone working for or using a rideshare service? If so, you must seek legal assistance as soon as possible.

An Uber driver can sue for his injuries after an attack just like an Uber passenger can sue for his injuries after an attack.

Regardless if you were physically or sexually assaulted, you could take action against Uber or Lyft (and the driver who attacked you). However, physical assaults and sexual assaults are very different although the end result is the same-an innocent victim suffers. Physical assaults usually result in assault and battery claims. Sexual assault, on the other hand, consists of any unwanted sexual contact which includes rape, attempted rape, touching, and sexual molestation, for example. Sexual assault is also considered assault and battery and often result is assault and battery claims. Assault and battery consists of a threat of causing harm and the act of causing harm. Any type of physical harm can be considered assault and battery. For example, if an Uber driver beats up a passenger, the passenger can sue Uber for his injuries, whether the injuries were broken bones, bruises, or scratches. Likewise, an Uber passenger can sue Uber for the injuries suffered as a result of the assault by the driver even after an attack of a sexual nature. If you are unsure whether you have grounds to file a lawsuit after suffering a physical or sexual assault, you must contact our law firm as soon as possible. Our experienced attorneys will provide you with all the information that you need to pursue a successful claim against Uber, Lyft, or the driver that harmed you. Contact us today.
Were you tasered by a Lyft driver or Uber driver? Tasers are often used for self-defense. However, these products are often misused. Uber and Lyft drivers encounter countless passengers every day. Without a doubt, drivers can encounter rowdy passengers that present a risk to their safety, so drivers might want to carry tasers to protect themselves in the case of an incident. Undeniably, there are incidents that might warrant the use of force by drivers against passengers, specifically in self-defense. Uber and Lyft have strict “no weapons” policy that applies to their drivers; although there is no guarantee that drivers will adhere to the policy. If you were tasered by a Lyft driver or Uber driver, you might have grounds to file a lawsuit against the rideshare company. For more information about the legal options available to you, do not hesitate to contact the experts at our law firm immediately.
If you suffered assault during a rideshare drive, whether you were beaten up with a baseball bat, with a baton, or even had an object thrown at you by the driver, it is important that you report the incident immediately and find a lawyer. I had an object thrown at me by the driver. Regardless of the object that was thrown at you, you could have grounds to file an injury lawsuit against the rideshare company for the harm that you suffered. For more information about legal options available to you after an Uber or Lyft driver attacked you with an object, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our law firm immediately.
Is Uber or Lyft liable for the harm that you suffered? Often, Uber and Lyft liability is unclear-especially considering that drivers are independent contractors. Uber and Lyft rid themselves of liability by hiring drivers that can pass a thorough background check. Although these background checks are generally efficient, it is possible for some parties to be able to pass even the most thorough tests with extensive criminal history. Uber and Lyft are common carriers; therefore, they have a high duty of care to their passengers. Does Uber carry liability for an Uber driver beating up a passenger? Because the answer to that question depends on the specific circumstances of the incident, discussing the situation with an experienced Uber and Lyft attorney is often required. If you would like to speak with the experts at Downtown LA Law Group, you must contact us as soon as possible.
Could an Uber driver assault and battery lawyer help you recover compensation for your attack claim? Could a Lyft passenger assault attorney help you fight for your right to receive compensation after you were attacked? An experienced lawyer could help you recover the compensation that is rightfully yours; however, you must first be eligible to recover compensation. Eligibility to recover compensation depends on many details of your claim; therefore, the thorough evaluation of an experienced attorney is necessary. Although every Uber and Lyft claim is different, you could be eligible to recover some of the following categories of compensation:

As explained above, you could have grounds to file a lawsuit and recover monetary compensation for the harm resulting from the assault and battery incident. You might have questions specifically regarding the average value of cases similar to yours. The value of an assault and battery claim depends on a number of details, including the extent of the injuries sustained, the extent of the treatment necessary, and whether any punitive damage provisions were awarded. Because assault and battery lawsuits tend to include quite a number of injuries, a good estimated range is $500,000 to $2,000,000 – of course, this is depending on the extent of the injuries and other factors surrounding the case.

Regardless if the Uber passenger is assaulted by an Uber driver or the Uber driver is assaulted by a passenger, the victim has the right to file a lawsuit.

All claims are subject to a specific deadline; if the claim is not filed within the deadline, the claimant will likely lose his or her right to sue the parties liable for the harm suffered.

If you were subject to physical assault, your claim might have a two-year statute of limitations. However, if you were the victim of sexual assault, a statute of limitations might not apply.
