    What was once the exclusive domain of taxi cab drivers has turned into a popular way to get around town called ridesharing. A rapidly growing number of customers call a rideshare company for transportation from entertainment hot spots such as Times Square to a bustling nightclub operating in Manhattan. Rideshare companies have emerged as a contender for the title of King of private transportation because of several reasons, including a more comfortable ride and a familiarity with the driver representing the rideshare company. However, rideshare drivers have to deal with the same safety issues faced by other drivers, whether it is a taxi cab driver or a commuter heading home from work to a home on Long Island.

    Rideshare drivers also have to deal with motor vehicle accidents, as do the passengers they serve across the State of New York.

    Filing an insurance claim for an auto crash is often a confusing and frustrating process. Far too many insurance companies deny valid claims for financial assistance or if they approve an insurance claim, the value of the claim is much lower than it should be. Although filing an insurance claim poses several issues, filing one against a rideshare driver or company generates additional issues that require the legal support of one of the experienced rideshare lawyers in New York.

    The first issue to settle is which party is legally responsible for paying the costs associated with medical care and property damage. Experienced rideshare lawyers in New York review the legal arrangement made between a driver and a rideshare company to determine which party’s insurance company must pay for damages. If the driver or the driver’s rideshare company committed one or more acts of negligence, a rideshare lawyer in New York gathers and submits the type of persuasive evidence needed to get an insurance claim approved and win a favorable legal judgment by filing a civil lawsuit that seeks monetary damages.

    Because of the complex legal issues that arise after a car accident involving a rideshare driver, you should contact one of the highly-rated personal injury attorneys at Morgan and Morgan. Since 1988, Morgan and Morgan has recovered more than $25 billion in monetary damages for clients that filed personal injury lawsuits. Since the advent of rideshare options, Morgan and Morgan has created a separate personal injury team to handle rideshare accident cases. We help clients determine which party’s insurance company should process a claim, as well as conduct a detailed investigation that proves the driver or the rideshare company committed at least one act of negligence.
