Lyft accident settlement amounts in the State of California vary depending on the specific facts of each Lyft motor vehicle accident. Settlement amounts can range significantly, with some cases settling for a few thousand dollars and others settling for millions.
The specific settlement amount of any case will depend on the special and general damages claimed in the case. All cases are different, and no two cases will produce the same settlement amount.
The attorneys at Ride App Law Group, LLP understand the factors that may affect the total settlement amount of your Lyft accident case. Our experienced personal injury attorneys will stand up to insurance companies and demand a settlement amount that is commensurate with your injuries.
Damages are most often divided into economic damages and non-economic damages. Examples of economic damages include medical expenses such as costs of medications, medical treatments, and doctor visits. Hospital care, physical therapy, chiropractic care, and medical transportation will also be included when calculating economic damages. Lastly, one major component factored into economic damages is surgical care and any post-operative costs associated with surgeries you undergo.
Property damage is also included in economic damages amounts. You may have damaged your vehicle in a Lyft accident, and this property damage will be factored into the amount of your economic damages. Any loss of your personal belongings will also be included in the total economic damages amount.
Lost wages and lost future earnings will also be included under economic damages. You may have been unable to work due to your injuries, or you may be unable to resume the work you did before you were injured due to the severity of your injuries.
Non-economic damages include pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and loss of enjoyment of life. Loss of consortium, disability, and many other types of damages will be included under non-economic damages.
