However, our qualified attorneys at Neuberger Law, LLC, can help you find the answers to your most urgent questions.

Drivers Vs. Ridesharing Companies<\/h2>

All drivers in Georgia are required to carry auto insurance. Drivers contracting with ridesharing companies may choose to purchase commercial auto insurance. This insurance works similarly to regular insurance policies, but it is designed to provide financial compensation to passengers who are injured in collisions.<\/p>

Both Uber and Lyft carry commercial insurance policies that include liability. This means if you are in an Uber or Lyft vehicle and you are injured in a crash<\/a>, you would be able to file a claim with the company’s insurer, which affords $1 million in coverage per crash. The companies also offer uninsured\/underinsured motorist coverage for bodily injuries suffered by rideshare passengers in crashes with other vehicles where the other driver is determined to be at fault.<\/p>

Our experienced lawyers can examine the factors involved in your case and help you determine whether you should seek compensation from the ridesharing company or from the driver. We can also assist you in calculating the total impact of the injury on your life.<\/p>
