Code \u00a7 6-2-38). Deadlines vary by claim type, so confirm yours with a Huntsville rideshare accident attorney as soon as possible."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How much insurance do Uber and Lyft have in Alabama?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Alabama law requires at least $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage while a driver is logged in to the app but not on a ride, and at least $1 million while the driver is on a ride (Ala. Code \u00a7 32-7C-2). Actual coverage and how it applies depend on the facts of your crash."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Who is responsible if I am hurt in a rideshare crash in Huntsville?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"It depends on who caused the crash and what the rideshare driver was doing at the time. The at-fault driver, the rideshare driver, or the rideshare company's insurance may be involved. An attorney can review the facts to see who may be responsible."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I sue Uber or Lyft after an accident in Huntsville?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"It depends on the facts of your case. Many claims are made against insurance policies connected to the driver or the company rather than the company itself. An attorney can look at your situation and explain your options."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What if the rideshare driver was not logged in to the app?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"If the app was off, the rideshare company's coverage generally does not apply, and the driver's personal auto policy may be the main source of coverage. Your own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may also help. Have an attorney review your situation."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What if I was partly at fault for my rideshare accident?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Alabama follows contributory negligence, which means being found even slightly at fault can bar you from recovering compensation. There are limited exceptions, and every case is different, so talk with an attorney before you discuss fault with an insurance company."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What if I was injured as a rideshare driver in Huntsville?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"If another driver caused the crash, you may be able to make a claim against that driver's insurance. Your own auto coverage can also matter, so review it with an attorney. Mama Justice can help you understand your options."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What compensation can I seek after a Huntsville rideshare accident?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Depending on your case, you may be able to seek compensation for medical care and therapy, lost income, reduced earning capacity, property damage, and pain and suffering. In cases involving a death, a wrongful death claim may also be possible."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How much does a Huntsville rideshare accident lawyer cost?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Mama Justice handles rideshare accident cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no attorney fee unless we win. Your first consultation is free."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Where is the Mama Justice office in Huntsville?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Our Huntsville office is at 200 West Side Square, Suite 975, Huntsville, AL 35801.
