WHAT DAMAGES CAN YOU RECOVER AFTER A MONTGOMERY RIDESHARE CAR ACCIDENT?
If you’ve been involved in a rideshare car accident, you may be entitled to various types of damages. These damages can help compensate you for the physical, emotional, and financial losses you have experienced as a result of the accident.
In short, you may be reimbursed for medical bills you were left with after the collision. We can help you recover damages for physical injuries, such as fractured bones, head and neck injuries, and soft tissue damage. Generally, damages in an Uber or Lyft car accident may include:
- Medical expenses: You may be able to recover compensation for your past, present, and future medical expenses related to the accident. This can include costs for hospital stays, surgeries, doctor visits, medication, physical therapy, and more.
- Lost wages: If the accident caused you to miss work and lose income, you may be able to recover damages for your lost wages. This can include both past and future income that you were unable to earn due to your injuries.
- Property damage: If any of your personal items were damaged in the accident, you may be able to recover compensation for the cost of repairs or replacement.
- Pain and suffering: Rideshare accidents can cause physical pain and emotional distress. Compensation for pain and suffering aims to address the non-economic impact of the accident, including physical and emotional trauma, anxiety, depression, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Punitive damages: In some cases, if the actions of the at-fault party were particularly negligent, punitive damages may be given.
It’s important to note that the specific damages you may be entitled to will depend on the circumstances of your case and the laws in your jurisdiction. Consulting with a Montgomery accident attorney can help you understand your rights and pursue the full compensation you deserve.
