Tacoma sees tens of thousands of Lyft rides completed each week; with so many rideshare drivers on the roads, there’s a higher chance that you’ll be involved in a crash with one. Lyft accidents have unique legal challenges that other types of car collisions don’t, including the possibility of two defendants: The Lyft corporation and its rideshare driver. Our Tacoma, WA Lyft accident lawyer protects your rights after the crash and helps you secure fair compensation from all liable parties. Call Strong Law Accident & Injury Attorneys today for a consultation.
Lyft drivers have more distractions than the average person on Tacoma city streets and highways. They may be engaged with the Lyft app to seek a nearby fare, navigating an unfamiliar part of town using their GPS, or trying to deal with unruly or chatty passengers. These distractions can make them more prone to causing accidents, hurting their passengers, and those in the other vehicle. If you were the other driver in the Lyft accident, you’ll quickly discover that your case has more complications than it would if you had been hit by a private driver. The Lyft corporation, its legal department, and its insurance company will quickly get involved, counting on you to feel overwhelmed and agree ot a fast, cheap settlement.
You don’t have to be pressured into a fast settlement, thinking that the offer is the only one you’ll receive. Our Tacoma Lyft accident lawyer understands the true value of your claim and can negotiate a significantly better offer than you may be able to obtain on your own. As you’re lying in a hospital bed, with severe injuries and in a lot of pain, trust our legal team to have your back. We build a strong case proving the Lyft driver’s negligence, using physical evidence, the input of accident reconstructionists, and witness testimony.
As experienced car accident attorneys, we know the true value of your claim and fight for every penny you’re entitled to, including a fair amount for your pain and the emotional trauma you suffered in the crash. Whether we’re negotiating with the insurance company or presenting your case at trial, we always focus on what’s best for you.
Lyft accidents require more resources to litigate than “regular” car accidents, and a great deal of knowledge about applying the concept of vicarious liability, which holds the company (Lyft) liable for the actions of its agents (the drivers). Our skilled Tacoma Lyft accident lawyer has demonstrated success pursuing claims against large, powerful corporations, and we know what it takes to pursue maximum compensation in your claim.

"Just wanted to say thank you to Jed and his team at Strong Law. Not only was I happy with the outcome, but the entire process as a whole. I would definitely recommend this firm to anyone. Thanks again."
"I had a claim involving my own insurance company. I tried to negotiate with them, and they completely denied my claim – two times. I then hired Strong Law, and the change was instant. The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!"
"I hired Strong Law after my car accident. Jed and his team worked hard on my case. They were professional and compassionate through my surgery and as I recovered, and they were awesome on communication. I got justice and awesome compensation. I would recommend Strong Law to anyone in my situation."
Gather evidence, interview witnesses, and assess the circumstances surrounding the accident to establish facts and liability.
Determine the extent of damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Engage in discussions with the opposing party or insurance companies to reach a fair settlement outside of court.
If negotiations fail, proceed to court where legal arguments and evidence are presented before a judge or jury for a final decision.
