Roy and his staff handled my parents’ estate. They were very thorough and professional. Their guidance, kindness and patience were a great help during this difficult time. Crista. B.
Roy, Susan, Matt & staff have delivered great results for me in two separate automobile personal injury matters. [...] J&J scrutinized case details that other lawyers had missed or wrongly deemed inconsequential that ultimately led settlement amounts more than double what was initially offered. You owe it to yourself to contact them for a consult first if your current lawyer is advising a quick settlement. C. Crespo
The entire process was made as simple as possible for me by Eric. I felt I was in good hands. Each step of my legal journey was explained to me clearly by Eric. He always took my phone calls and made me fell like I was an important client of his. Could not ask for more. Michele. P.
I bought a new house and had Roy do my two closings. Both were done in the same day, one in the morning, one in the afternoon. Everything went smooth. Can't say enough nice things about Roy and his staff. Plenty of correspondence back and forth and all was done without any problems. Highly recommend Jaghab, Jaghab & Jaghab. Evan B.

Who Should I Sue After an Uber or Lyft Car Accident?

Ridesharing services like Uber and Lyft have revolutionized transportation in New York, Nassau County, and Suffolk County, but they’ve also introduced new complexities in auto-accident cases. Whether you’re a driver, passenger, or pedestrian, knowing who to sue and under what circumstances is essential.

Uber Accidents: Understanding Liability and Coverage

  • Uber Driver at Fault: An Uber driver runs a red light while logged into the app and collides with another vehicle. In this case, Uber’s coverage would likely apply due to the driver’s status during the accident​​​​.
  • Third-Party Fault: When an Uber is rear-ended by a distracted driver at a stop sign, the third-party driver would be primarily liable.

Lyft Accidents: Insurance and Fault Scenarios

  • Lyft Driver at Fault: If a Lyft driver, distracted by the app, misses a stop sign and hits a pedestrian, Lyft’s coverage may apply, especially if the driver was en route to or during a ride.
  • Another Vehicle’s Fault: Incidents where a car changes lanes unsafely, colliding with a Lyft vehicle, would put the fault on that driver.

Other Parties at Fault

  • Another Driver’s Fault: In scenarios where a driver under the influence causes an accident with an Uber or Lyft vehicle, the intoxicated driver is at fault.
  • Biker’s Fault: A biker who ignores traffic rules and collides with a rideshare vehicle can be held responsible for the accident.
