Injured in an Uber or Lyft? What Georgia Riders Should Know

In this episode of Peachtree Injury Talk, attorney Jordan Jewkes discusses the legal complexities surrounding accidents involving rideshare services like Uber and Lyft. He explains that liability typically depends on who is at fault and that rideshare companies provide substantial insurance coverage—usually around $1 million—when their drivers are operating with the app active. Jordan emphasizes the importance of immediately calling 911, seeking medical care, documenting the accident scene, and avoiding private settlements with drivers. He also highlights challenges in suing Uber or Lyft directly due to the independent contractor status of drivers and the prevalence of mandatory arbitration clauses. For passengers, drivers, or pedestrians involved in rideshare accidents, Jordan advises caution and thorough documentation to ensure proper insurance claims and compensation.
