Get Immediate Help from a San Bernardino Rideshare Accident Attorney
Our San Bernardino personal injury lawyers understand how the law applies to your claim and can guide it through the process efficiently. We also know solid cases are built on convincing and comprehensive evidence. As soon as we form a partnership, we will get to work on finding that evidence.
There are a variety of liable parties in a rideshare accident. Your lawyer will carry out a full investigation to identify that party and present evidence to show their negligence. The earlier we can start this investigation, the better. Evidence is more available early in the process and will likely include:
- Eyewitness accounts
- Security, traffic, or dash-cam photos or videos
- Physical evidence from the accident scene
- Medical documentation of your injuries
- Reports from accident reconstructionists or other experts
- Police reports
We will search all avenues of potential evidence and make use of all available information.
As a Rideshare Accident Victim, You Deserve Compensation
Rideshare drivers experience almost constant distraction. They have to monitor digital routes and passengers while driving. They must search for pickup locations for their clients and monitor drop-off sites.
The more clients they accept, the more money that rideshare drivers make. Their financial goals could encourage speeding or other safety shortcuts. They may also work for extended periods and become fatigued. Fatigued driving is as dangerous as impaired driving. It puts everyone else on the roads and passengers in the rideshare vehicle at risk
Of course, causes associated with any motor-vehicle crash remain. Another driver’s negligence could cause the crash, as could faulty brakes or some other vehicle malfunction or defect.
Unsafe roadway conditions and broken traffic signals are other possibilities. No matter who is to blame, a San Bernardino rideshare accident lawyer is ready to help get you compensated.

Determining the Value of Your Claim
Do not rely on the at-fault party’s insurance adjusters to determine the value of your claim. The team at BANA LAW will manage that assessment.
The other side will question your injuries and downplay the accident consequences to keep their payout low. We will know how much your injury case is worth and demand full and fair compensation.
You could sustain fractures and broken bones. These injuries will keep you in pain and out of work for a time. While you may see a full recovery, you could also experience lingering effects that never fully resolve. Catastrophic injuries, such as spinal cord or brain trauma, could leave you with permanent physical and/or cognitive limitations.
Your lawyer will fight to recoup your medical expenses and lost wages, property repair costs, and all other financial losses. Our settlement calculation will also include financial recognition of your pain, both physical and emotional, and loss of quality of life.
"I felt very protected, especially the way Ryan answered any question I had. I was very happy with the results of my case."

Rideshare Accidents Present Complicated Insurance Issues
Rideshare drivers carry personal auto insurance to cover their injuries when involved in an accident. Companies offer third-party liability coverage, but amounts vary depending on when the accident occurs.
For example, Uber insurance to help protect you as a third-party victim offers $50,000 per person and $100,000 per accident for injuries. It also covers up to $25,000 in property damage. These amounts apply to accidents occurring when the Uber driver is active on the app but has not yet accepted a ride request.
For accidents occurring when the Uber is carrying passengers or traveling toward a confirmed client, company coverage is $1,000,000 per accident.
If someone else is responsible for the crash, then another insurance company is involved. When there is an opportunity to deflect blame, insurance representatives will take it, prolonging the process. Your attorney will work to keep companies honest, so you get paid.
"Our goal is to remove the stress of the case from you, so you can focus on treating your injuries and begin your road to recovery."

How California’s Car Accident Laws Affect Your Claim
The California deadline to sue someone for a car accident is usually two years. Missing this deadline could cost you justice. Securing legal representation quickly is the best way to ensure you file on time. Even if you believe you’re too late, reach out to us for a case review. Sometimes, extensions apply. If your case presents grounds, we will pursue that extension.
Your lawyer will also break down comparative negligence in CA and how this system can affect your compensation. Any accident victim has the right to seek damages for their injuries and losses. If they are found to be partially at fault, they receive reduced compensation.
The reduction is in proportion to their percentage of culpability. If they are 10% responsible, they receive 90% of the calculated amount.
Our team will be prepared to face accusations from the other side. Inflating your fault helps them save money, and they will seize on any opportunity to blame you for what happened. Their attempts will not surprise us, and we will counter their claims with powerful arguments and supporting evidence.
