How Cogburn Davidson Can Help After an Uber Accident in Henderson

Uber accidents are rarely straightforward. Multiple parties and multiple insurance policies may be involved, and each one will try to minimize its responsibility. Our attorneys know their tactics, and we know how to fight back. When you hire our team, we will:

  • Conduct a full independent investigation into the crash
  • Gather and analyze evidence such as police reports, Uber driver records, cell phone data, and maintenance logs
  • Identify all possible sources of compensation, including Uber’s insurance policies
  • Consult accident reconstructionists and medical experts to strengthen your case
  • Handle all communications with insurance companies
  • Negotiate aggressively for a fair settlement or take your case to trial if that’s what it takes

At Cogburn Davidson, we pride ourselves on being attorneys who give a damn. That means you’ll never feel like just another case file. We fight to protect your future and your family’s well-being.

Who Can Be Liable in an Uber Accident?

Liability in rideshare cases can extend beyond just the Uber driver. Depending on the facts, responsible parties may include:

  • The Uber driver
  • Drivers of other vehicles
  • Pedestrians or cyclists whose actions contributed to the crash
  • Trucking or bus companies
  • Vehicle or parts manufacturers
  • Government agencies responsible for unsafe roads
  • Employers of negligent drivers

While Uber generally avoids direct liability because its drivers are independent contractors, the company is required to carry insurance coverage that may apply depending on the driver’s status at the time of the crash.

Understanding Uber’s Insurance Coverage

Uber provides two main tiers of coverage in Nevada:

When the driver is logged in but waiting for a ride request:

  • $50,000 per person for bodily injury
  • $100,000 per accident for bodily injury
  • $25,000 for property damage

When the driver has accepted a ride or has a passenger in the vehicle:

  • Up to $1 million in coverage for bodily injury and property damage

If the driver is not logged into the app, only their personal auto insurance applies.

Our attorneys will review your case carefully to determine which policy (or combination of policies) may cover your losses.

What Damages Can I Recover After an Uber Accident?

Uber accident victims in Henderson may be entitled to both economic and non-economic damages.

Economic damages cover financial costs, such as:

  • Emergency medical bills and ongoing treatment
  • Rehabilitation and therapy
  • Lost wages and future earning capacity
  • Property damage
  • Nursing or in-home care
  • Funeral expenses in fatal accidents

Non-economic damages address intangible losses, including:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress and PTSD
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Disability or disfigurement
  • Loss of companionship

In rare cases, punitive damages may also be awarded if the at-fault party acted with extreme recklessness or intentional misconduct.

What Is My Uber Accident Case Worth?

There is no standard payout for Uber accidents. The value of your claim depends on many factors, including:

  • The severity and permanence of your injuries
  • The cost of medical care now and in the future
  • Whether you can return to work or must change careers
  • The emotional and physical toll on your life
  • Whether you share any fault for the crash
  • The availability of insurance coverage

Our team has a track record of securing settlements and verdicts far above initial insurance offers. The best way to understand the value of your case is to schedule a free consultation with one of our Henderson Uber accident lawyers.
