If you’ve been injured in a rideshare accident, you may feel overwhelmed by medical bills, lost wages, and uncertainty about the claims process. Whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, or another driver, getting fair compensation from multiple insurance companies can take time and may feel stressful.

In the meantime, medical bills, rent, and everyday expenses keep stacking up. If your case is pending and you’re waiting on a settlement, rideshare accident pre-settlement funding can provide the financial support you need right now.

Understanding Rideshare Accident Lawsuits

Accidents involving rideshare vehicles — like Uber, Lyft, or similar services — are legally complex because they involve both corporate and individual liability. Who’s responsible depends on whether the driver was logged into the app, transporting a passenger, or waiting for a ride request.

Here’s how it breaks down:

Driver not logged into the app: The driver’s personal insurance applies.
Driver active but no passenger: The rideshare company’s limited liability coverage may apply.
Driver transporting a passenger: The rideshare company’s $1 million commercial policy generally covers the accident.

Because these cases require reviewing app data, timestamps, and multiple insurance carriers, settlements can take months — or longer. Meanwhile, you’re the one dealing with the aftermath: lost wages, medical costs, and ongoing pain.

A 2023 industry study by the Insurance Information Institute (III) found that rideshare-related accidents have increased over 30% in major cities since 2019, largely due to distracted driving and fatigue among app-based drivers.

How Pre-Settlement Funding for Ride-Share Accidents Helps

Pre-settlement funding (also known as personal injury cash advance, or a lawsuit loan) offers financial relief while you wait for your settlement. This funding is not a loan—it’s a non-recourse cash advance based on your case’s potential value. If your case does not result in a settlement, you owe nothing back.

FAQs About Rideshare Accident Lawsuit Funding

1. Can I get lawsuit funding for a rideshare accident involving Uber or Lyft?

Yes. Whether your case involves Uber, Lyft, or another rideshare company, you may qualify for funding as long as you have an active personal injury claim and are represented by an attorney. At Baker Street Funding, we evaluate your case based on fault, coverage, and injury documentation — not your credit score or employment status.

2. What happens if both the driver and the rideshare company share fault?

Many rideshare claims involve multiple layers of insurance. If both the driver and the rideshare company are partly responsible, Baker Street Funding works directly with your attorney to review all available coverage and determine a fair advance amount. You’ll never be responsible for repayment unless your case settles successfully.

3. How does non-recourse funding protect me during a long case?

Non-recourse funding means there’s no risk to you. You repay only if your case wins or settles. If your case is lost or dismissed, you owe nothing. This protection allows you to stay financially stable while your attorney focuses on securing full compensation.

4. What types of injuries qualify for rideshare accident lawsuit funding?

We fund a wide range of injury cases that arise from rideshare crashes — whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, or another driver. Common injuries include:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
Spinal cord injuries and herniated discs
Fractures and orthopedic injuries
Whiplash and cervical trauma
Internal organ injuries
Soft-tissue damage and chronic pain conditions

If your injuries required surgery, injections, or long-term medical care, you may qualify for higher funding amounts. Baker Street Funding evaluates the severity, medical documentation, and liability factors in each case to ensure fair and responsible advances
