If you are seriously injured by a rideshare driver while driving another vehicle, riding as a passenger in another vehicle, or as a pedestrian or bicyclist, you need the strength of a third-party rights attorney behind you, to help ensure that you receive fair compensation.
Because we have handled many similar cases, we are well aware of the workings of rideshare insurance. In a nutshell, the rideshare company bears liability only when their driver is working through his or her rideshare app. This means that we can only tap the $1,000,000 policy the company has for each of its drivers if the driver was actively waiting to be notified of a customer, picking up a passenger, or delivering a customer to her or his destination at the time of the accident.
This means that if a Lyft or Uber driver hurts you in an accident, whether you are the driver or passenger of another car, or a pedestrian or bicyclist, the company is liable for damages if the driver was working for the company at the time. It also means, however, that your situation will be more complex if:
In any of the above situations, you will be very glad to have our well-informed, agile rideshare accident lawyers at your side to clarify and handle the situation.

With Joseph Shirazi and Simon Esfandi at the helm, our firm is a trusted name in accident law in California.
After 10 accidents and 9 attorneys, the client met Simon, who stood out for his honesty and clear communication. Years later, after another accident, the client called Simon and was impressed by his professionalism and follow-through. Simon explained everything, connected him with top doctors, and kept every promise. It was the first time the client felt truly supported—highly recommending Simon and Joseph for their integrity and dedication.

Over two years, they ensured he got the medical care and surgeries he needed, helped repair his car, and secured the compensation he deserved. He highly recommends them for truly fighting for their clients.
