Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Do Uber and Lyft provide insurance coverage for accidents in Bellevue?
Yes. Both offer up to $1 million in liability insurance when a ride is in progress. However, coverage depends on the driver’s app status. Your personal insurance or the at-fault driver’s policy may also come into play.
Can I sue both the rideshare driver and the company?
It depends on the driver’s classification as an independent contractor and the circumstances of the accident. Our rideshare accident attorney can help you navigate this.
How long do I have to file a rideshare accident claim in Washington State?
The statute of limitations is three years from the date of the accident.
What damages can I recover?
You may be entitled to medical expenses, lost wages, future care, pain and suffering, and more. In fatal cases, families may pursue wrongful death claims.
