If you find yourself in a situation where you have been in a collision with a ride share such as Uber, Lyft, Grubhub, DoorDash, Uber Eats – you have found yourself in a more complicated situation than a typical auto accident. There are more layers of insurance to pierce and to decide if they even apply to your situation.

If you are a driver for a ride share service such as Uber or Lyft and you are injured by someone else in an accident, you have a personal injury claim. This type of claim proceeds in a completely different fashion to a typical personal injury claim.

When discussing construction workplace injuries, you typically are not talking about a car accident. Construction sites are dangerous places, and you have injuries related to debris falling from above such as hammers, bricks, supplies, or even people. In these types of construction workplace injuries, it is important to determine who is responsible for your injury.

When discussing workplace injuries, the team here at Willis, Willis, & Rizzi likes to break things into two categories: workplace injuries where you are on the job and get injured and workplace injuries where the person who injures you is on the job, and you may or may not be on the job.

Here at Willis, Willis & Rizzi we recently were discussing the old comic strip “Popeye” and there was a character named “Wimpy” who was always looking to eat hamburgers. One of the characters famous lines was “I’ll gladly pay you tomorrow for a hamburger today.” And that is the kind of world we live in with insurance companies and personal injury claims.
