Protecting Rideshare Accident Victims Across New Jersey

Uber and Lyft have transformed transportation across New Jersey, but with that convenience comes chaos. Every day, thousands of rideshare vehicles flood highways, backroads, and city streets, leading to a growing number of serious collisions.

At Kwartler Manus, our rideshare accident attorneys in New Jersey represent victims of Uber and Lyft crashes statewide. Whether you were a passenger, another driver, or even a pedestrian, we move fast to investigate what happened, identify coverage, and fight for your full recovery.

Understanding Rideshare Accident Claims in New Jersey

Rideshare cases are unlike ordinary car accidents because liability depends on the driver’s status at the time of the crash. Was the app on? Was the driver waiting for a ride request? En route to a pickup? Actively transporting a passenger?

Each of these scenarios activates different insurance policies — sometimes the driver’s personal insurer, sometimes Uber or Lyft’s commercial coverage. Our team knows how to navigate these layered systems and ensure you’re covered no matter how the companies try to limit their responsibility.

We handle claims involving:

  • Uber drivers (en route, waiting, or transporting passengers)
  • Lyft drivers in all operational stages
  • Delivery drivers operating under rideshare platforms

We know the loopholes these companies use, and we don’t let them work.

Common Causes of Rideshare Crashes

Speed and distraction drive most rideshare collisions. Drivers are constantly checking phones for directions, new rides, and app notifications.

Combine that with fatigue from long shifts, and accidents become inevitable. Our investigations often reveal a pattern of reckless behaviors: drivers running lights, merging without checking mirrors, or speeding through residential zones to make their next pickup. 

We also see vehicle maintenance issues that fall through the cracks as drivers put endless miles on personal cars. When carelessness turns an app into an accident scene, we act immediately to prove it.

The Impact of Rideshare Injuries

Even low-speed collisions can cause serious harm when a vehicle is hit at the wrong angle or when passengers aren’t fully braced for impact. Victims often suffer injuries like:

  • Whiplash and neck trauma
  • Back and spinal cord injuries
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Concussions or traumatic brain injuries
  • Soft tissue damage and lasting pain

Many clients also face anxiety about getting back in a car or returning to work. Our attorneys make sure both the physical and emotional impact of your crash are fully documented and compensated.

Determining Liability: Who’s Responsible?

Liability in rideshare cases can involve multiple parties, including the rideshare company, the driver, and sometimes other motorists. Our team uses phone data, GPS logs, and ride records to reconstruct what happened and identify every liable entity.

When Uber or Lyft tries to argue that their drivers are independent contractors, we remind them that their policies, app design, and profit model create the risk and that makes them responsible.

What Compensation Can Cover

Victims of rideshare crashes may be entitled to recover compensation for:

  • Medical treatment and rehabilitation
  • Lost income and reduced earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Permanent disability or scarring
  • Wrongful death damages for families

We calculate every dollar based on your long-term needs, not the insurer’s bottom line.
