Why You Need an Experienced Orlando Uber Accident Lawyer
Getting into an accident involving an Uber or Lyft in Orlando isn't like your average car crash. With millions of tourists visiting Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, and other Central Florida attractions each year, rideshare usage in Orlando has skyrocketed - and so have accidents.
Uber accidents involve complex liability questions about when the company is responsible versus when the driver's personal insurance applies. Rideshare companies like Uber have unique insurance policies, layers of liability, and complex legal protections - all designed to limit their responsibility.
That's why it's critical to contact a dedicated and experienced Uber accident lawyer at HOV Law as soon as possible.
Here's why working with our Orlando rideshare attorneys matters:
We understand Uber's insurance loopholes - Whether the driver was actively on a trip, waiting for a ride request at MCO Airport, or offline completely - coverage changes depending on the driver's app status. We know how to navigate these policies and determine exactly who's responsible.
We fight for full compensation - Uber's insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts. Without legal representation, victims often walk away with far less than what they're owed. We pursue maximum compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
We're not afraid to take on big corporations - Our legal team has experience handling complex rideshare accident claims throughout Orange County and Central Florida. We hold negligent drivers and corporations accountable - no matter how big the opponent.
We handle everything so you can heal - From start to finish, HOV Law will take care of the paperwork, negotiations, and legal strategy so you can focus on what matters most - your recovery.

What to Do After an Uber or Lyft Accident in Orlando
When the unexpected strikes - whether you're a passenger in an Uber, a Lyft driver on duty, or even a pedestrian crossing the street - accidents involving rideshare vehicles can turn your life upside down in a split second.
At HOV Law, our experienced Uber and Lyft accident lawyers in Orlando understand the chaos that follows a car crash. That's why we recommend a clear, step-by-step approach to protect your rights and secure the compensation you deserve.
Steps to Take Immediately After the Accident
- Call 911-Report the accident to the authorities. Police and paramedics need to be notified, especially if there are injuries. In Orlando, you can also request the Orange County Sheriff's Office or Florida Highway Patrol for accidents on highways.
- Document the Scene-If you're able, take photos of the crash site, vehicle damage, road conditions, traffic signs, and any visible injuries. These images can speak louder than words when it's time to file a claim.
- Collect Key Details-Exchange contact and insurance information with all parties involved, including the Uber or Lyft driver and any eyewitnesses. Get the driver's name, license plate, and take a screenshot of their driver profile in the app.
- Save Your Ride Receipt-If you were a passenger, screenshot your rideshare receipt immediately. This helps link you directly to the incident in the eyes of the insurance provider and proves the driver was on duty.
- Seek Medical Attention-Even if you feel fine, get a medical evaluation. Some injuries don't show symptoms immediately. Medical documentation is also crucial evidence for your claim.

When Is an Uber or Lyft Driver at Fault for an Accident?
While most Uber and Lyft drivers in Orlando take their jobs seriously and drive cautiously, long hours and unfamiliar neighborhoods can increase the risk of crashes. And when accidents happen, victims often face medical expenses, emotional trauma, and lost income.
Florida law requires all registered motor vehicles to carry insurance, and rideshare companies are no exception. Uber and Lyft have specific coverage tiers based on whether the driver is waiting for a ride, en route to pick someone up, or actively transporting a passenger. This means passengers, pedestrians, and even other drivers are protected under specific insurance policies.
That's why HOV Law fights to make sure Orange County, Seminole County, Osceola County, and all Central Florida rideshare accident victims get the compensation they deserve. Whether you're a passenger, a pedestrian, or another motorist hit by an Uber or Lyft driver, our legal team is ready to help you navigate your claim.
Important: If you're hurt in an accident involving an Uber or Lyft vehicle in Orlando, you may be entitled to compensation - even if the rideshare driver wasn't at fault.
Uber Insurance Coverage in Florida: What You Need to Know
If an Uber or Lyft driver is found liable for an accident, the HOV Law Uber accident lawyers in Orlando will gather all necessary evidence, including police reports and witness statements, to file an insurance claim for compensation against the rideshare driver's insurance provider.
Most Uber and Lyft drivers are covered by a $1 million insurance policy when actively transporting passengers. Here's what this coverage includes:
Medical Bills
Whether you're a passenger, pedestrian, or another driver hit by an Uber or Lyft vehicle, medical expenses can stack up fast after a crash. Coverage may include:
- Emergency room visits
- Ambulance transportation
- Surgeries and ongoing treatment
- Physical therapy and rehabilitation
Prescription medications and specialist visits
This coverage steps in when your PIP (Personal Injury Protection) coverage is maxed out - which is common in serious accidents. With medical costs rising, this protection can be the difference between drowning in bills or getting proper care.
Lost Wages
If your injuries leave you unable to work, Uber and Lyft's insurance may reimburse you for income you've lost - both now and in the future:
- Missed workdays or shifts
Lost freelance, gig, or self-employment income
Future earning potential if your injury leads to long-term disability
You shouldn't have to choose between your recovery and your paycheck. Our Uber and Lyft accident attorneys at HOV Law help clients prove lost wages with documentation from employers, pay stubs, and medical evaluations.
Pain and Suffering
This is one of the most overlooked yet impactful forms of compensation. Pain and suffering covers the emotional and psychological toll a crash can take on your life:
- Chronic pain
- Depression or anxiety
- PTSD from a traumatic crash
- Loss of enjoyment of life or daily activities:We work with medical experts and therapists to help prove the real, lasting effects of your injury - not just the physical ones.
- Property Damage:Uber and Lyft's policy can also cover damages to your personal property in the event of an accident:
Vehicle repair or replacement
Broken phones, laptops, or personal belongings inside the car
Damage to your home or business if the crash involved private property
Understanding Uber's Insurance Periods
- Period 1 (App On, Waiting for Request):The driver is logged into the app but hasn't accepted a ride. Coverage is limited: $50,000 per person / $100,000 per accident for injuries and $25,000 for property damage.
- Period 2 (En Route to Pickup):The driver has accepted a ride and is heading to pick up the passenger. Coverage increases to $1 million in liability and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.
- Period 3 (Passenger in Vehicle):A passenger is in the car. Full $1 million coverage applies until the passenger is dropped off.
Staying Safe When Using Uber or Lyft in Orlando
- Using Uber or Lyft in Orlando is a convenient way to get around-from the theme parks to downtown Orlando to Orlando International Airport. But getting into a stranger's car always carries some level of risk. Here are essential tips to help you stay safe:
- Confirm Your Driver Before Getting In-Before opening the car door, match the driver's name, photo, and license plate with the info in your app. Don't assume just because they're parked outside a bar or hotel that they're your driver. Trust your gut - if anything feels off, cancel the ride.
- Share Your Ride in Real Time-Use the "Share Ride Status" feature to send your trip details to a friend or family member. They can track your exact route and estimated arrival time.
- Sit in the Back Seat-Sitting in the back gives you more control and distance from the driver.
- Wear Your Seatbelt-Always buckle up. Not wearing a seatbelt could affect your claim if an accident occurs.
- End and Rate Your Ride Immediately-Close out the ride in the app, give an honest rating, and take a screenshot of the ride details for your records.
