California rideshare accident attorneys.
Uber and Lyft crashes turn on app status. Waiting for a match and driving a passenger are not the same insurance question.
The company’s policy position usually follows the driver’s status: app off, app on and waiting, or matched and on a trip. Which layer applies has to be confirmed for the date of the crash. We do not print policy limits.
App data is the coverage map. We look for it before it ages out of the company’s systems.
Damages that may matter
Passengers, other drivers, and people outside the car can all have claims. The damages work is the same careful accounting:
Passenger injuries
People who did nothing but request the ride.
Other motorists
Drivers and riders hit by the rideshare vehicle.
People on foot
Pedestrians and cyclists struck during a trip or a pickup.
Lost income
Work missed while the injury is treated.
Ongoing care
Treatment that continues after the app trip is a closed ticket.

Common questions
Free consultation. We handle cases on contingency.
Often both questions matter, and the answer depends on app status and whose coverage responds. We sort that during the review instead of guessing from the logo on the door.
Not always. A personal policy and a rideshare layer can both be in the conversation. Status at the minute of impact is the fact that sorts them.
