California Rideshare Accident Lawyers
We Partner with You to Achieve the Best Results.Were you injured in an accident with a rideshare vehicle like an Uber or Lyft?
Rideshare vehicle accidents happen every day in California. While the physical injuries resulting from a rideshare accident are the same as the physical injuries resulting from any other accident, the legal consequences of a rideshare accident require some additional analysis.
If you have been injured in an accident involving Lyft, Uber, or any other rideshare company, you need legal representation from an experienced rideshare accident lawyer.
We are seasoned rideshare accident lawyers who have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for the accident victims we have represented. We were founded in 1984, so we know automotive trends and automotive liability.
When it became apparent that rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft were here to stay, we knew that Californians would soon need Uber & Lyft accident lawyers. So that is what we became.

We Understand Your Situation; We Understand the Law
Rideshare accidents are uniquely complicated. Identifying everyone who might be even partially at fault to make sure you get the compensation you deserve requires experience.
Rideshare accidents involve not just drivers and passengers but often the rideshare companies and multiple insurance companies. Determining who is at fault, identifying the appropriate insurance coverage, and preserving your rights through the entire process requires the experience of Wells Call Injury Lawyers.
We leverage our collective decades of California automobile accident experience with the unique workings of California’s negligence laws to ensure those who are liable pay everything they should to compensate you for your damages.
Can You Sue?
If you have been injured in a rideshare accident, you have likely asked yourself if you can sue. The short answer is yes, you may have grounds to take legal action. However, whom you sue depends on several factors including:
- The status of the rideshare driver. When you were injured, was the rideshare driver logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, en route to pick up a passenger, or carrying a passenger? This is important.
- Everyone’s level of fault. California follows a comparative fault system, meaning that more than one party can share financial responsibility for an accident. The damages awarded to injured parties are apportioned according to each party’s degree or percentage of fault.
- The specifics of the accident. Our legal team has decades of experience in gathering, analyzing, and dissecting these details so we can put forth the strongest possible case for you.
Whether or not you sue, we are committed to getting you the compensation you deserve.
How We Help
We enjoy getting large recoveries for our clients. This is primarily because we like helping people. This is how we help you:
- Initial consultation. We will listen to your story and provide a no-obligation consultation where we review the details of your rideshare accident. We will identify the strong points of your case and the points that will require extra diligence to overcome.
- Determining fault. While a jury will eventually have the final say on who is at fault, our team knows whom to investigate, so we leave no stone—and no possible source of recovery for you—unturned.
- Dealing with insurance companies. Navigating the maze of insurance companies and negotiating with them is something we do well. Rideshare accidents will likely involve dealing with multiple insurance policies, but we can help ensure your rights are protected and you receive the compensation you deserve.
- Litigation. If we, in consultation with you, determine that a trial is the only way to get what you deserve, then we will be prepared to represent and advocate for you in court. Our lawyers have experience litigating rideshare accident cases and have a rare understanding of California’s traffic and insurance laws.
Recovering from an automobile accident can be exhausting, frightening, and challenging. We know how to help.
Your Compensation
If you’re not at fault, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical bills and ongoing treatment costs,
- Lost wages and loss of earning capacity,
- Pain and suffering,
- Property damage, and
- Other accident-related expenses.
