Uber is a popular rideshare company that has made it easy and convenient for people to get around. However, the increasing popularity of ridesharing services has also led to an increase in Uber vehicles on the road and more collisions. Uber car accidents are often complex and confusing. Many rideshare accident victims are unsure of who should be held responsible, another motorist, the Uber driver, or the rideshare company. At the Hines Law Firm, our Uber accident lawyers can help guide you through the legal process, investigate the accident, and determine who should be held responsible for your accident-related financial losses.

Handling the Insurance Company
OOur personal injury lawyers will handle every aspect of your claims process, including negotiating with the driver’s insurance company or Uber’s insurer. Our experienced attorneys have extensive experience negotiating with insurance companies and are familiar with the tactics they will use to delay a personal injury claim, minimize payout, or deny a claim completely. Our experienced rideshare accident lawyers will not back down and will work tirelessly to help you recover the compensation you’re owed. If the insurance company refuses to make a reasonable settlement offer, our trial-tested attorneys can file a lawsuit on your behalf. As they prepare for trial, they will continue to negotiate with the other party. Typically, these cases do not make it to trial and are often settled out of court. An insurance company does not want to risk paying more or wasting valuable resources going to trial.
