Ridesharing has changed the transportation industry forever, and now we share the road with many rideshare drivers who've jumped into the gig economy (there are nearly 4 million Uber drivers around the world). With these new drivers on the road, there are bound to be more accidents. And, when someone is involved in a rideshare accident, they have a lot of questions regarding fault and liability. 
 
Because laws surrounding the ridesharing industry are constantly changing, it's important to have an experienced Uber and Lyft accident attorney on your side in the event of an accident. At Lowman Law Firm, we know the ins and outs of the ridesharing industry, so if you've been injured in a Spring Lake Uber or Lyft accident, call us for a free consultation.

Uber & Lyft Accidents in Spring Lake, Florida

With just the tap of an app, Spring Lake residents can have an Uber or Lyft driver at their service in a matter of minutes. With the added convenience, however, comes some risk – ridesharing has ultimately put more cars on the road, and that means more accidents, injuries, and fatalities.

A recent ridesharing study discovered that rideshare accidents had increased traffic deaths by as much as 3% since they first rose in popularity in 2011. That’s equivalent to as many as 1,100 fatalities a year.

While the majority of increases occurred in larger cities, Uber and Lyft accidents in Spring Lake still happen. If you've been injured in an accident involving an Uber or Lyft, contact Lowman Law Firm for expert advice and representation.

Who's At Fault?

Put Our Experienced Spring Lake Uber & Lyft Accident Injury Lawyers On the Case!

 

Uber and Lyft generally take a “hands-off” approach to many claims when a driver is involved in an accident, partly because ridesharing drivers are independent contractors and carry their own insurance coverage in addition to the ridesharing company's additional coverage.

This corporate insurance, however, only applies at certain times. For example, if a rideshare driver is "offline" (in the vehicle but not en route to pick up a customer or transporting a customer) they are not covered and a traditional Spring Lake auto accident claim would apply. 

If you're involved in an Uber or Lyft accident when a rideshare driver is active with the app, Uber or Lyft will want you to work with your own insurance company, their corporate insurer, and the driver's personal insurance company, which can quickly become a real headache.

To avoid these complications, or if you feel like you're being pressured to settle for an unfair amount, contact Lowman Law Firm's Spring Lake rideshare injury attorneys for expert help.

Why We Love Spring Lake, FL

Spring Lake is just about 15 miles away from the hustle and bustle of our Brooksville office, so we know the area. In fact, Joe Lowman's family has been part of the communities since the 1960s.

Many of our team members frequent Boyett's Grove as a nearby getaway, a reminder of a time when roadside attractions defined Florida. There, they feed wildlife, pan for "gold," and purchase fresh citrus. And get this: The original owners just happen to be Joe's grandparents!

As your neighbors just down the road, we're proud to offer our services to Spring Lake residents. Our ties to this community are strong, and if you've been injured in an accident, our hometown legal team is here to help.

Trucking Accident Case

I never would have imagined a car accident case being this pleasant. I’ve had a different lawyer in the past and it was not great. I was recommended to Lowman Law firm and immediately I felt important walking through their door. Throughout the entire process I was never clueless about what was going on with the case. They were always responding immediately and staying on top of things.

Samantha

Automobile Accident Case

Fought tooth and nail with the at fault insurance company for me every time they didn’t want to pay for a rental car and helped set up all of my medical appointments. Jordan and Joseph are the best. I got more than 20 times the money I thought I would be receiving from the settlement. I was literally brought to happy tears over how they handled everything!

Dominique

Automobile Accident Case

Going into a deposition and remediation can be nerve racking but honestly with Brent by my side put me at ease and had me confident. The outcome was better than I expected! I 100% will always recommend the Lowman Law firm! Thank you again everyone for everything you have done for me! You guys are phenomenal!

Samantha

Automobile Accident Case

Fortunately, I have had a few good lawyers in my life. Lowman Law Firm falls into that experience. As a Licensed Healthcare Professional, my opinion is that they showed great regard and concern for my health. They carried the load professionally & expeditiously; never pressured me, while allowing me to recover.

Wilma

Automobile Accident Case

I am very pleased with the outcome of my lawsuit and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a honest and hardworking team of lawyers. I really can't say enough positive things about them.

Ginger

Automobile Accident Case

Dealing with insurance companies is not a pleasant experience and I wanted a professional on my side. I met with Joe Lowman who explained the process to me and put me at ease with me realizing that I had a competent, capable and experienced team fighting for me. They navigated through getting my car fixed and countless medical appointments and kept me informed as things progressed. Joe Hill was awesome at taking the facts, communicating with the doctors offices and insurance companies and getting the best outcome possible. The outcome was greater than I thought was possible. This would not have been possible without the awesome work, skills and professionalism of Joe Hill. He is great and I will always recommend Lowman Law Firm. You guys are fantastic!
