Injured in a Rideshare Accident?
Rideshare claims can get complicated. Cal can sort them out for you.
Rideshare vehicles are everywhere in Arizona, picking up passengers at Sky Harbor, around ASU, in downtown Phoenix, and in neighborhoods across the Valley. When one of those vehicles is involved in a crash, the people hurt may include the passenger in the back seat, the driver, another motorist, or someone walking or biking nearby.
Cal Mundell represents people injured in rideshare accidents throughout Arizona. Whatever your role in the crash, Cal gives your case his personal attention and works to recover what Arizona law allows.
Why Rideshare Accidents Are Different
The injuries in a rideshare crash are the same as in any serious accident: broken bones, head and neck injuries, back injuries, and weeks or months of recovery. What makes these cases different is figuring out who pays.
Under Arizona law, the insurance available depends on what the rideshare driver was doing in the app when the crash happened. A driver with the app off is usually covered only by a personal policy. A driver who is logged in and waiting for a request carries one level of coverage. Once a ride is accepted or a passenger is in the car, much higher coverage applies.
Cal can take this off your hands: tracking down the driver's app status, identifying every policy that may apply, and pursuing full compensation for your injuries.

What to Do After a Rideshare Accident
The steps you take after a rideshare crash can help protect both your health and your claim. When you can:
-
Get medical care. Injuries like concussions and back injuries may not show up right away.
-
Call the police. Make sure a report is made, even if the crash seems minor.
-
Take screenshots of the ride. Save the trip details in your app, including the driver's name, vehicle, and route, before they disappear from view.
-
Photograph the scene. Capture the vehicles, the rideshare decals, the road, and any injuries.
-
Get everyone's information. Collect names, phone numbers, and insurance details from the drivers involved and any witnesses.
-
Speak with Cal Mundell Law. Rideshare claims can involve several policies. Learn your rights before agreeing to any settlement.
The earlier the evidence is saved, the easier it is to show which coverage applies.
Investigating Your Rideshare Accident Case
In a rideshare case, a single timestamp can make a big difference. Depending on your case, Cal may look at:
-
The driver's app status and log-on and log-off times
-
Trip records and ride receipts
-
Scene photos and physical evidence
-
Dash cam and traffic camera video
-
Police crash reports
-
Witness statements
-
Your medical records
-
The driver's phone use, where available
-
Vehicle damage and available vehicle data
-
Records of your lost income and other financial losses
Arizona law requires rideshare companies and their insurers to share a driver's log-on and log-off times during a claim investigation. Cal uses that information, along with the rest of the evidence, to determine what happened and which coverage applies.
