What to know
Crashes involving an Uber driver can trigger rideshare insurance policies worth up to $1 million depending on whether the app was on and a ride was active. An experienced personal injury attorney can evaluate whether you have a claim, identify who is responsible, and deal with the insurers on your behalf.
California filing deadline
In California, the deadline to file most personal injury lawsuits is two years from the date of injury (California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1); claims against a government entity have a much shorter six-month notice window.
What an attorney costs
Most California personal injury attorneys work on contingency: no fee unless they recover money for you, and the initial consultation is typically free.
