Although it took several years to reach the courtroom before the judge and jury, Cyrus prepared me thoroughly and represented me with the utmost professionalism.

I am grateful to Cyrus and his...

Common Injuries

Common Injuries You Might Face After An Accident or Personal Injury Incident

The very first step you should take after an accident is to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if you feel all right at first, you might have suffered an injury that is not yet evident but could become more severe as time goes on.

Some of the most common injuries stemming from accidents include head, neck, chest, limb, and back injuries. While your chest pain or whiplash might seem temporary, it could be indicative of more significant internal injuries such as concussions, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), spinal cord injuries, or internal organ damage. Similarly, while a herniated disc might be easy to ignore at first, it could lead to reduced motor function or leg weakness, which, in the long term, could affect your ability to walk.

For these reasons, it is essential that you seek medical attention after an accident or a rideshare collision in LA, even if your injuries initially seem minor.

Determining Liability After a Rideshare Collision

Figuring out who is responsible for a rideshare accident—and holding them accountable—can be complicated. Normally, the driver who caused a crash has their insurance pay the injured person’s claim. Where rideshare companies like Uber or Lyft are involved, however, there are different types of insurance, policy limits, and many other issues that come into play.

Liability can vary from case to case. It will depend on the specific rideshare company the driver was working for at the time of the crash, as well as who caused the accident in the first place. With the aid of an attorney, an injured person might sue both the driver and the rideshare company, as there could be joint liability or liability for the company as an employer (or at least as a principal with the driver as their agent).

A lawyer familiar with rideshare accidents in Los Angeles and bringing claims against large tech companies like Uber and Lyft can guide you through these questions and help you make the legal arguments necessary to get you the medical treatment you need and the compensation you deserve for your injuries.
