Lyft Accident Cases in Orange City Can Be Legally Challenging
Lyft accidents can be particularly challenging for a variety of reasons. This is because there are generally many parties involved in rideshare accidents. It can be difficult to determine liability and demand compensation. We could file a claim with Lyft’s insurer, depending on the status of the Lyft driver during the time of the crash.
For example:
- If the Lyft driver was not logged in to the Lyft app during the time of the crash, we could file a claim with their personal auto insurance provider.
- If the driver was logged in to the Lyft app but had no passengers in their car yet, Lyft would provide liability coverage if the driver’s insurance does not cover the accident.
- If the driver was logged in to the Lyft app and had passengers in their car, Lyft’s liability coverage would apply.
When things get complicated, it can help to have an experienced attorney by your side. Our Orange City Lyft accident lawyer can prove who was at fault for the accident and take legal action accordingly.
We Can File a Lawsuit To Help You Recover Fair Compensation
In some Lyft accident cases, we are able to reach a fair settlement through insurance negotiations. However, if an insurance claim does not result in fair compensation for you, we can file a lawsuit.
Please note that you have a limited time to file a lawsuit in Orange City, FL. State law only offers victims two years to file a lawsuit after a Lyft accident, and this time will go by quickly. Some exceptions could change the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit. Don’t wait to get started on your case.

Proving Another Party Was At Fault in Your Lyft Accident Case
We need to prove that another party was the reason you were involved in an accident and sustained injuries. Our team may even uncover that more than one party was responsible for causing the accident.
Your lawyer can prove the at-fault party caused your accident by showing that they were negligent. Some examples of negligence include:
- Drunk driving
- Speeding
- Reckless driving
- Distracted driving which can include the use of cell phones or GPS systems
- Operating the Lyft application in dangerous conditions
- Tailgating
- Failing to adhere to the traffic laws
- Driving with an invalid license, or without the experience necessary to safely transport passengers
- Driving a mechanically unsafe vehicle
We can collect evidence such as photos, videos, and the police report to demonstrate fault. This evidence can help us prove that the at-fault party or parties owe you compensation.
