Rideshare (Uber & Lyft) · $1,500 – $75,000+
Hurt in an Uber or Lyft? There may be a $1 million policy behind it.
Rideshare companies carry substantial commercial coverage while a driver is on a trip — far more than the driver's personal policy. Which coverage applies turns on what the app was doing at that moment.
Sound familiar?
What people in your position
are actually dealing with
- Nobody will tell you straight whether the company's policy or the driver's applies
- You were a passenger and did nothing wrong, yet you are the one chasing the claim
- The driver's personal insurer denies the claim because they were working
- You are being handed between the driver, the company, and two insurers
- You need treatment now and the claim has not even been assigned
Realistic timeline
Commonly 12 months to 2 years. Disputes over which policy applies, and cases with more than one injured passenger, run longer.
Why funding fits this case
The coverage question is what makes these cases valuable and what makes them slow. While the insurers argue over which policy responds, your bills do not pause. A non-recourse advance is repaid from the settlement, and if the case does not succeed you owe nothing.
Typical advance range
$1,500 – $75,000+
Set by the funder after reviewing your case with your attorney.
How it works
From application to cash
Two minutes on your phone
Tell us it's a rideshare (uber & lyft) case, what state you're in, and how much you need. No credit check, no documents to upload.
Your attorney confirms the case
A funder licensed in your state contacts your attorney directly for the case details. You don't gather records or chase paperwork.
Money lands
If it qualifies, funds typically arrive within 24–48 hours of approval — direct deposit or check, your choice.
Your advance is non-recourse. The funder only gets paid if your case wins or settles. If it loses, you keep the money and owe nothing — no credit check, no monthly payments, nothing that follows you. Funding does carry a fee that grows the longer your case runs, so take the smallest amount that solves your problem and review the payoff schedule with your attorney first.
Rideshare (Uber & Lyft) questions
Straight answers.
Does it matter whether the app was on?
It matters more than almost anything else. Coverage generally steps up as the driver goes from offline, to waiting for a request, to en route or carrying a passenger — with the largest limits applying during a trip. Establishing the app's status at the moment of the crash is often the whole case.
I was the passenger. Am I covered?
Passengers are usually in the strongest position, because the trip was underway and the highest coverage tier generally applies. You also have no comparative fault to argue about.
What if I was in the other car?
You can still claim against the rideshare policy if the rideshare driver was at fault and on a trip. The analysis is the same; you simply have to establish their app status, which your attorney can subpoena.
Can I get funded before liability is decided?
Sometimes, at a smaller amount. Funders price uncertainty. As liability and coverage firm up, a larger advance often becomes available on the same case.
