Atlanta Rideshare Accidents Lawyer

Last updated on January 5, 2026

Rideshare accidents are more complicated than most other types of car accidents. One of the most complex problems is that to recover compensation from the accident, a passenger must be considered a fare at the time of the accident. If the driver picked you up on their own instead of with the company app, you will likely not get compensation from the rideshare company if an accident happens.

This is just one potential issue that passengers may face in a rideshare accident. At Zambrano Law in Marietta, attorney Shirley Zambrano fights for compensation and justice for rideshare accident victims in Georgia. She understands all of the complications of rideshare accidents as well as how the rideshare company will try to avoid paying the damages you deserve. While Uber and Lyft are the most well-known companies, she can help you no matter which rideshare company is involved. Speak with her in a free consultation to discuss your car accident claim.

Rideshare Passengers And Other Motorists Can Be Injured

There are two types of rideshare accidents: accidents caused by other motorists and accidents caused by the rideshare driver. Zambrano Law provides representation to injury victims in both situations.

Attorney Shirley Zambrano also represents third-party motorists who were injured when a rideshare driver caused a car accident involving their vehicle. Just tell her about your rideshare accident and she will discuss the details of your claim with you.

What Are The Most Common Causes Of Rideshare Accidents?

Rideshare drivers face many of the same problems as regular drivers, with a few exceptions. The most frequent causes of rideshare accidents include:

  • Using their phone to operate the business app
  • Looking at the GPS instead of the road
  • Speeding to pick up or drop off a passenger
  • Being distracted by a passenger
  • Driving in areas they are not familiar with
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
  • Drowsy driving
  • Reckless driving
  • Going through traffic lights or stop signs

Let the firm know if your rideshare driver caused an accident because of a different behavior and see how our lawyer can help.

Your Injuries May Be Severe

All types of car accidents have the potential to cause serious, catastrophic or fatal injuries, such as:

  • Concussions and traumatic brain injuries
  • Neck injuries
  • Internal bleeding
  • Crush injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Spinal cord damage
  • Amputations
  • Cuts from broken glass

If you lost a family member to wrongful death, attorney Zambrano will help you recover compensation that includes funeral and burial expenses as well as the personal loss of a loved one.

Additional compensation that you may recover after an accident includes pain and suffering, medical bills, lost income, loss of earning capacity, loss of enjoyment of life and damage to your vehicle.
