Ridesharing has become a convenient way to get around. You can get a ride to and from anywhere in the Newark area with just a few taps on your phone. You rightfully expect to reach your destination safely when you get a ride – and many passengers do.
Sometimes, however, rideshare passengers don’t reach their destinations safely because they are in an accident. In addition, negligent rideshare drivers can injure other motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, or anyone else unlucky enough to be in the area.
At TopDog Law, we know how seriously Uber, Lyft, and other ridesharing accidents can affect victims and how to get you the compensation you deserve. To schedule a free case evaluation with a rideshare accident attorney in Newark, contact our office today.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
While substantial insurance policies are available to cover your losses, rideshare companies routinely fight claims. If they are not fighting, then the insurance companies are.
Both rideshare companies and their insurance companies know exactly how to get victims to settle for less. In fact, they will deny your claim completely if they can find any way to do so.
You need someone to fight for justice. Do not accept denials or lowball offers; speak to our Newark rideshare accident lawyer as soon as possible.
TopDog Law will handle the insurance claims process for you. We will investigate the accident by speaking to witnesses and gathering evidence. If you have a claim, we will negotiate with the insurance company and provide relevant documents to prove your damages to the insurance company.
We will calculate your losses accurately, so there is no question about the monetary compensation you should receive. If push comes to shove, we will file a claim and represent you in court.

Rideshare companies regularly use various legal tactics to absolve them of liability after collisions. However, New Jersey has fought back by implementing new laws that help accident victims recover compensation.
These laws are specific to our state, and every state has different driver regulations. Among the consumer protections is that Insurance plans must cover bodily injury or death sustained in rideshare crashes.
Newark is a densely populated urban area, and traffic crashes are common. While rideshare accidents can occur all over Newark, they are more common in certain areas.
You may find the following places in Newark to see more accidents than other locations:
Rideshare accidents happen in many of the same ways as car accidents, and the most common cause of them is driver negligence. The negligent party can be the rideshare driver or another motorist.
Some common examples of driver negligence include:
Other situations can lead to a rideshare accident. Discuss how your collision occurred with a Newark personal injury lawyers at TopDog Law, and start a claim today.
Rideshare accidents may leave victims with injuries like those in other car accidents. They can result in extreme emotional and psychological trauma. You can be eligible for compensation from the at-fault party for your injury expenses.
Some injuries may take years to heal. Permanent injuries require a settlement or award that accounts for lifelong expenses.
Examples of injury you may sustain in a rideshare accident include:
This is not an exhaustive list of injuries; you can suffer harm in many ways. One common thing among all injuries is the extensive medical bills you may experience. Injuries can also lead to a domino effect on your life. You may need to take time off for doctor’s appointments and treatments or be unable to work.
You may encounter various insurance issues as you begin the claims process. The initial point of dispute involves determining the insurance policy responsible for covering your losses.
There are several options, including:
Sometimes, you may also file a claim directly with the rideshare company.
Once you take care of your immediate needs, like getting a medical evaluation and filing relevant reports, you must take steps to protect your claim.
While notifying Uber or Lyft about the collision is an option, you should immediately seek the assistance of a Newark rideshare accident attorney.
The rideshare companies’ forms to document accidents may ask questions designed to get you to say things that may hurt your case. While you think this is harmless, it can prove detrimental to your case later.
