How is liability determined in a Cocoa Beach Uber accident?
Liability in Uber accidents can be complex and often involves multiple parties. The determination depends on several factors, including the Uber driver's status at the time of the accident (whether they were offline, waiting for a ride request, en route to pick up a passenger, or carrying a passenger).
Each status triggers different insurance coverage levels and liability scenarios. Our legal team investigates all potential sources of compensation, including Uber's commercial insurance policy, the driver's personal insurance, and other involved parties' coverage. We use accident reconstruction experts, analyze traffic camera footage, and gather witness statements to establish liability and build a strong case for our clients.

How does Uber's insurance coverage work in accident cases?
