Houston Rideshare Accident FAQs

Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how Angel Reyes & Associates may assist you with your case.

What should I do immediately after a rideshare accident in Houston?

After a rideshare accident in Houston, call 911 and get medical attention right away. Screenshot your rideshare app to confirm the ride was active at the time of the crash. Collect the driver’s name, license, and insurance information. Contact a rideshare accident lawyer as soon as possible so we can preserve trip records and investigate coverage before the evidence disappears.

Which insurance policy covers a rideshare accident in Texas?

Coverage depends on the status of the rideshare driver at the time of the crash. If the driver was logged in and carrying a passenger, the rideshare company’s commercial policy typically applies. If the driver was waiting for a fare, a reduced-coverage period may apply. Our attorneys investigate exactly what coverage was active and who is responsible.

Can I sue Uber or Lyft directly after an accident in Texas?

Rideshare companies typically classify their drivers as independent contractors, which limits their direct liability. However, you may still have claims against the driver, the rideshare company’s insurance policy, and any other at-fault parties. We evaluate every avenue for recovery based on the specific facts of your case.

How long after a rideshare accident in Houston can I file my claim?

In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the date of the crash. Acting quickly also matters because rideshare app data, GPS logs, and trip records can be critical evidence that must be preserved early in the process.

How much does it cost to hire a Houston rideshare accident lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates?

Hiring a Houston rideshare accident lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates costs nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no attorney fees unless we win. Your first consultation is free.
