Rideshare insurance coverage
California law requires transportation network companies to carry substantial coverage while a driver is on a trip. Passengers are typically covered — the fight is making the insurer pay what's fair.
What to do after a uber & lyft accidents injury
- Get medical care right away — and keep every appointment. Gaps in treatment are the first thing an insurer attacks.
- Photograph everything: the scene, vehicles or hazard, your injuries, and any visible cameras.
- Get names and numbers of witnesses before they disappear.
- Don't give a recorded statement to the other side's insurance company.
- Call Eisner Law before you sign anything or accept a quick offer.
Frequently asked questions
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
Generally two years from the date of injury (Code of Civil Procedure §335.1). If a city, county, or state agency is involved, you usually have only six months to file a government claim. Don't wait — evidence disappears fast.
