Frequently Asked Questions
-
What should I do immediately after an lyft accident in Long Beach?
- First, check for injuries and call 911 if necessary. Then, gather evidence by taking photos of the accident scene, get contact details from everyone involved, and report the collision to the Long Beach Police Department. Finally, reach out to Murrin Law Firm for guidance on your legal and insurance options.
-
Does lyft’s $1 million insurance policy always apply to my Long Beach rideshare accident?
- Lyft’s $1 million insurance typically applies when the driver is actively logged into the app and transporting or en route to pick up a passenger. If the driver was offline or waiting for a ride request, coverage might differ. Our attorneys at Murrin Law Firm can review your case and determine what coverage applies.
-
Can I sue lyft directly for my accident in Long Beach?
- In many cases, you’ll pursue compensation through Lyft’s insurance policy rather than suing the company directly. However, each accident is unique. Murrin Law Firm can help you understand whether Lyft bears any direct liability in your situation.
-
How long do I have to file an lyft accident claim in California?
- California’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases is generally two years from the accident date. It’s best to consult an attorney promptly, as evidence can disappear and witness memories may fade. Murrin Law Firm offers free consultations to discuss your timeline and next steps.
-
If the lyft driver was off-duty during the accident, who pays for my injuries?
- If the driver was off-duty (not logged into the app), Lyft’s insurance usually doesn’t apply. Instead, you’ll likely need to seek compensation through the driver’s personal auto insurance. Murrin Law Firm can help you explore all avenues for recovery.
-
I was a pedestrian hit by an lyft driver in Long Beach. Will lyft’s insurance still cover my injuries?
- If the driver was logged into the Lyft app or actively transporting a passenger, Lyft’s insurance may cover your injuries. The level of coverage depends on the driver’s status at the time. Our legal team will investigate the specifics of your accident to determine the best route for compensation.
-
Will my medical bills be covered by lyft’s insurance if I was a passenger?
- Yes, if you were a passenger during an active ride, Lyft’s insurance typically provides coverage for medical expenses, up to policy limits. We’ll help you document your injuries and expenses to maximize your potential settlement.
-
What if the lyft driver who caused my accident doesn’t have enough insurance?
- Lyft’s policy often supplements the driver’s personal insurance if the driver was on-duty. If the driver was off-duty and underinsured, you may need to file a claim with your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Murrin Law Firm can guide you through these insurance complexities.
-
Can Murrin Law Firm help if my lyft accident claim is denied or delayed?
- Absolutely. Insurance companies sometimes deny or stall valid claims. Our attorneys can negotiate on your behalf, gather additional evidence, or file a lawsuit if needed to protect your right to fair compensation.
-
How much does it cost to hire a Long Beach lyft accident lawyer at Murrin Law Firm?
- We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing upfront. We only collect a fee if we win your case or secure a settlement. This ensures you receive top-tier legal representation without any financial risk.
