Serving Uber & Lyft crash victims
in Charlotte and across NC
Rideshare crashes bring tricky insurance rules and finger-pointing. Our Charlotte rideshare accident lawyers sort out the coverage and fight for the money you deserve.
Uber and Lyft rides are supposed to be convenient—not life-changing for the wrong reasons. If you were injured in a rideshare accident in Charlotte, you deserve clarity, compensation, and legal support that actually helps.
Rideshare accidents are messy. Multiple companies, overlapping insurance policies, and drivers who may or may not be liable—it’s enough to make anyone feel overwhelmed. At Johnson & Groninger PLLC, we help injured passengers, drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists in Charlotte navigate Uber and Lyft accident claims with confidence. You don’t have to go up against billion-dollar companies alone.
Rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft have changed how we get around Charlotte—but not always for the better. With more drivers on the road and increased demand for quick pickups, accidents are bound to happen.

At Johnson & Groninger PLLC, we know how to access app data, vehicle telematics, and witness accounts that prove who was at fault—and whether a corporate policy should pay.
If you were hurt in an Uber or Lyft crash, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Rideshare drivers are expected to multitask—navigating traffic while juggling their phones, apps, and passenger communication. The pressure to move quickly can lead to serious mistakes.
We’ve handled rideshare accident claims involving:
Rideshare platforms claim to “vet” their drivers—but dangerous people still slip through. When that leads to an injury, we make sure your voice is heard.
The moments after a crash are confusing—but your actions matter. Here’s what we recommend:
The faster we can start investigating, the better chance we have to preserve valuable evidence (including app and phone data).

Clients choose us because:
And we don’t charge you a dime unless we recover compensation.

You’re likely covered under Uber or Lyft’s $1 million liability policy if the driver was on an active trip. We’ll help you file a claim with the appropriate insurer.
We’ll investigate and pursue compensation from the at-fault driver’s insurance—or your own, if they’re uninsured or underinsured.
It’s difficult, but not impossible. We explore every potential avenue, especially if the rideshare company was negligent in vetting or retaining the driver.
