Queens Uber and Lyft Accident Lawyer Keetick L. Sanchez Provides Legal Insights on Rideshare Accidents
Queens Uber and Lyft accident lawyer Keetick L. Sanchez (https://accidentlawyer-queens.com/queens-uber-and-lyft-accident-lawyer/), of K L Sanchez Law Office, P.C., sheds light on the challenges faced by victims of rideshare accidents and the complex legal matters involved in these cases. With the increasing reliance on Uber and Lyft for transportation, the number of accidents involving these vehicles has risen. Keetick L. Sanchez explains the critical steps victims should take to protect their rights and secure the compensation they deserve.Rideshare accidents can leave passengers, drivers, and even pedestrians facing severe injuries, significant medical bills, and complex legal battles. Unlike typical car accidents, determining liability in an Uber or Lyft crash is more complicated due to the involvement of multiple parties, including the rideshare driver, the company, and other motorists. Queens Uber and Lyft accident lawyer Keetick L. Sanchez emphasizes the importance of understanding how these accidents occur and what steps victims should take to protect their rights.
Several factors contribute to Uber and Lyft accidents in Queens. Driver negligence, including distracted driving, fatigue from long hours, and even driving under the influence, is a major cause. Additionally, third-party negligence, poor road conditions, and vehicle defects also play a role in rideshare crashes. Queens Uber and Lyft accident lawyer Keetick L. Sanchez points out that these accidents can lead to severe injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, fractures, and internal organ injuries, many of which have long-term consequences for victims.
One of the most challenging aspects of Uber and Lyft accident cases is determining who is liable. Since rideshare drivers are independent contractors, their personal insurance policies may not cover accidents that occur while they are working. In these cases, Uber and Lyft's corporate insurance policies may apply. These policies provide different levels of coverage based on whether the driver had the app on, had accepted a ride, or had a passenger in the car.
Keetick L. Sanchez explains that if an accident occurs while a driver is waiting for a ride request, Uber and Lyft offer limited liability coverage. However, when a driver has accepted a ride or has a passenger, a $1 million insurance policy typically applies. In some cases, if the accident was caused by another driver's negligence, victims may need to file a claim against that driver's insurance company.
Beyond drivers and rideshare companies, liability can also extend to vehicle manufacturers if a mechanical defect caused the crash. Additionally, government agencies responsible for road maintenance may be held accountable if hazardous road conditions contributed to the accident. Queens Uber and Lyft accident lawyer Keetick L. Sanchez advises victims to seek legal assistance to identify all liable parties and maximize their compensation.
Victims of rideshare accidents should take immediate action to protect their rights and strengthen any potential legal claims. Keetick L. Sanchez recommends that individuals involved in an Uber or Lyft accident prioritize their safety, seek medical attention, and document the scene. Obtaining witness statements and reporting the accident to both law enforcement and the rideshare company are also essential steps.
"Even if injuries seem minor at first, they can develop into serious medical issues over time," says Keetick L. Sanchez. "Seeking prompt medical attention and legal representation can be crucial in helping ensure that victims receive the compensation they need to recover from their injuries".
Reporting the accident to Uber or Lyft through their in-app reporting system is another important step. Both companies have procedures in place to handle accident claims, and timely reporting can help expedite the insurance claims process. Additionally, a police report serves as a crucial piece of evidence when negotiating with insurance companies.
Recovering compensation after a rideshare accident can be complex, as insurance companies often attempt to minimize payouts. Keetick L. Sanchez notes that Uber and Lyft's insurers may dispute claims, argue over liability, or offer settlements that fail to cover the full extent of the victim's losses.
Another challenge is understanding the difference in regulations between New York City and the rest of the state. In Queens and other parts of NYC, rideshare companies are regulated by the Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC), which imposes different insurance requirements than New York State law. Navigating these jurisdictional differences can be overwhelming for accident victims, making legal guidance essential.
The aftermath of an Uber or Lyft accident can be overwhelming, but legal representation can help victims manage the claims process and secure the compensation they deserve. Keetick L. Sanchez and the team at K L Sanchez Law Office, P.C. work diligently to advocate for clients, handle negotiations with insurance companies, and, if necessary, represent victims in court.
