Brooklyn, Queens & Manhattan NYC Uber Lyft Rideshare Automotive Injury Attorneys

As one of the cities with the most traffic in the world, New York City has benefitted from an abundance of rideshare options like Lyft and Uber, in addition to the ubiquitous yellow cabs, but with those rideshare drivers come rideshare accidents.

New York, United States – January 1, 2019 /PressCable/

New York City holds the bronze medal for the most traffic-congested city in the world, tying Moscow with the average driver spending around 91 hours in traffic, and being beaten in overall congestion in the US only by Los Angeles, or so says the INRIX Global Traffic Study (http://inrix.com/scorecard/). Public transportation and rideshare options seek to remedy the total amount of traffic, when riders accept a lift with any company, they’re putting their safety in the hands of a third party, and when accidents invariably happen, those injured need to make sure that their rights are protected.

In the boroughs of New York City, contact the Law Office of Richard M. Kenny at 212-421-0300 and speak to an attorney specialist at no cost. More information can be found on their website, https://www.rmkinjurylaw.com/blog/3-faqs-about-lyft-uber-accidents-involving-pedestrians/

Currently Rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft have surpassed the total per day and per month number of rides given by the yellow cab companies which are so synonymous with the urban New York cityscape. Each of those Vehicles is manned by somebody who may or may not be trained in commercial driving and accidents do happen. When accidents do happen, each of these companies carries Insurance meant to cover the injured parties, but insurance companies want to be out as little as possible.

An injury with or in one of these vehicles can mean a lifetime of difficulty and suffering as well as therapy and other related medical expenses. That can be an incredible burden for the average person to have to afford to, and that is why these can often payout multimillion-dollar settlements.

Unfortunately the average person doesn’t know how to press for their rights and make sure that they are compensated for damages properly, and that is why it’s best to work with a personal injury attorney who specializes in Rideshare injuries. A spokesperson for the Law Office of Richard M. Kenny shared this comment:

“As a pedestrian injured in this accident by a driver, you may be able to gain damages from them. Their negligence has directly caused harmed to you. This may require them to compensate you for your injuries. If you are seriously injured, you may need surgeries and other medical attention. This can be quite expensive. With the compensation from a personal injury case, you can pay for all these medical bills. Not only can this help pay for medical bills, but it can also provide compensation while you are out of work due to time needed to heal from your injuries. These situations may also cause emotional trauma. If this has happened to you, you may be able to seek additional payment for pain and suffering caused by the accident.”
