Our Investigation Will Show Negligence Caused the Rideshare Accident
In any car accident—even a rideshare accident—you must prove negligence. This means illustrating these four elements:
- Duty of care. The at-fault party had a civil obligation to drive with reasonable caution and prudence.
- Breach of duty. The at-fault party violated their duty of care through their actions or omissions.
- Causation. The at-fault party caused your accident and resulting injuries.
- Damages. You have economic and non-economic damages for which you want compensation.
To prove these four elements, we collect evidence and interview witnesses. While your lawyer focuses on building your case, you can spend your time and energy on getting better.
Our Lawyers Can Seek Damages Via an Insurance Claim
The rideshare driver’s insurance company could pay for your losses if the at-fault driver was:
- Signed into the app and awaiting a request
- On the way to pick up a passenger
- Completing a request with a passenger in the vehicle
If the driver wasn’t actively completing a rideshare-related duty, you could file a claim with their private insurance carrier. In any case, you have options, and our team can evaluate them after concluding our investigation.
Recoverable Damages in Your Pompano Beach Rideshare Accident Case
Economic damages after a car accident are typically simple to document with bills, receipts, estimates, and invoices. Examples include:
- Current and future medical bills
- Assistive medical devices
- Treatment-related travel costs
- Current and future income loss
- Loss of future earning capacity
- Property damage or destruction
Non-economic damages are intangible and can be more difficult to document on your own. Here, our team assesses the extent of your injuries and your mental suffering to quantify the costs associated with:
- Physical disability
- Physical disfigurement
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Our Wrongful Death Lawyers Advocate for Grieving Families in Broward County
We extend our condolences if you’re living in the aftermath of a loved one’s unexpected passing. In this situation, our Pompano Beach wrongful death lawyers will demand compensation for the decedent’s burial and cremation expenses. We also demand compensation for the loss of your loved one’s income, domestic support, and loss of consortium and companionship. Financial recovery can’t totally undo the grief you feel, but it can go a long way in helping you rebuild your life.
We Uphold Your Pompano Beach Rideshare Accident Case’s Deadline
All car accident cases have a filing deadline called the statute of limitations. It is an important part of your case since failing to comply could put your right to recover damages in jeopardy.
In Florida, the personal injury statute of limitations recently changed, which can make compliance even more difficult without legal guidance. In general, the new filing deadline is two years for personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11.
Our rideshare accident attorney will explain the various statute of limitations exceptions that could apply to your case, according to Florida Statutes § 95.051. We work hard to correctly interpret and comply with the filing deadline. Yet, before we act, we must learn about your case first. Waiting too long to seek legal help could invalidate your right to damages.
