If you are injured by a negligent driver, Colorado law entitles you to maximum compensation for your losses. Through a personal injury claim, injured individuals can receive financial compensation for medical expenses, long-term disability, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering and emotional distress.
The Uber driver's insurance policy provides a large amount of coverage, but you will still have to deal with the insurance company. Like any other insurance company, Uber's insurer will be more concerned with its profits than providing coverage to those injured. Insurance adjusters for a rideshare company will use many tactics to deny your insurance claim or offer a settlement that fails to fully cover all of your losses. For this reason, anyone hurt in an accident involving an Uber should speak to a rideshare accident lawyer without delay.
