Practice Area — Chicago, Illinois
Injured as a passenger in an Uber or Lyft in Chicago? You are almost never at fault — and you have strong legal rights. No fees unless we win.
Liability
If your driver caused the accident through negligent driving, they are liable — and their $1M policy covers your injuries.
Directly liable if the driver had a disqualifying history, prior complaints, or if the platform's own negligence contributed to the accident.
If another driver caused the crash, you can pursue their insurance. Uber/Lyft's $1M UM/UIM coverage also applies if the other driver is uninsured.
As a passenger, you can pursue claims against all liable parties simultaneously — maximizing your total recovery.
Insurance
During Your Trip (Period 3)
$1,000,000 primary liability coverage from Uber or Lyft. This is the strongest coverage tier and applies from the moment you enter the vehicle until you exit.
UM/UIM Coverage
$1,000,000 uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Applies if another driver hit your rideshare vehicle and has no insurance or insufficient coverage.
At-Fault Driver's Insurance
If another driver caused the crash, their personal auto insurance is also available. An attorney coordinates all claims to maximize total recovery.
