If you are seriously injured due to a reckless or negligent Uber driver, chances are their insurance will not cover all of your medical expenses. A serious car accident can have catastrophic and sometimes deadly, consequences. Traumatic injuries that are common in violent car crashes include:
Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
Spinal cord injury
Neck and back injuries
Broken bones
Internal bleeding
Experiencing one or more of these types of serious injuries can delay or possibly end your career or employment. Your initial hospital stay may result in future surgeries, expensive medical equipment, and long-term therapies.
An Uber ride may seem like a quick solution to your need for transportation, however, it can have severe consequences for your life. While an insurance company may offer you what seems like a significant sum of money, they do so to settle the case quickly.
The initial settlement offer from an insurance company most likely will not sustain your future medical needs and care. At Hughey Law Firm, we know the tactics insurance companies use to get victims to settle for less than they deserve. Don’t let this happen to you. Contact us as soon as possible after the accident to discuss your options for pursuing fair compensation.
