The settlement amount in an Uber passenger accident case is determined by considering several factors. These include the cost of medical treatment and ongoing care related to the accident, the value of any property damaged or lost in the accident, the income lost due to the accident and resulting injuries, the potential impact on future earning capacity, the physical and emotional pain and suffering endured, the extent of emotional distress caused by the accident, and in some cases, if the behavior of the rideshare driver was particularly egregious, punitive damages may also be awarded. Settlement amounts vary based on the specific details and severity of the injuries.
