Types of Damages You Can Get in Injury Claims After Dallas Uber Collisions
Even though the settlement amounts people might win in these cases can differ greatly, depending on the individual case’s facts, there are certain loss categories that people pursue in many of these cases. The types of money damages can include things like:
- Lost wages if a person does not get paid their regular income when they are out of work because of their car accident injuries
- Decreased earning potential if long-term complications (such as an impairment, loss of a limb, or limited mobility) cause a person to be incapable of making as much money as before the crash
- Medical expenses incurred for the treatment of their injuries, such as diagnostic tests to determine the extent of a brain injury or surgery for seriously broken bones
- Future medical costs if the treating physician expects the person to need additional treatment in the future because of their injuries
- Intangible losses like pain and suffering, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), loss of enjoyment of life, and disfigurement
- Wrongful death damages are available when a person does not survive their injuries from a Dallas Uber crash. Domingo Garcia might be able to pursue compensation for the family by filing a wrongful death claim.
Be sure to talk to your Dallas Uber accident attorney about all of the financial and intangible losses you suffered and every way the experience of the accident changed your life.

What Is the Average Settlement in a Dallas Uber Accident Injury Claim?
There is no such thing as an average settlement in a Dallas Uber accident injury claim for several reasons. Unlike jury verdicts, settlements usually do not get reported, so there is no way to calculate the average of an unknown set of numbers.
Also, the amount of a settlement for injuries suffered in a Dallas Uber crash will vary widely from one case to another. One person might escape with only bumps and bruises, while another person might have life-changing injuries.
However, our attorneys can investigate your unique case’s facts and then tell you more about a possible goal settlement amount we can seek for you.
An Overview of Uber Liability Insurance
In certain situations, Uber provides liability insurance coverage to help pay claims when people get hurt in collisions that involve Uber rideshare vehicles. But again, Uber’s coverage is limited to certain situations. If an accident happens during a period not covered by Uber’s policy, an injured person will have to look to the liability insurance of the responsible rideshare driver instead.
Here are three scenarios and a brief explanation of which liability insurance might be available:
- If a collision involving a rideshare vehicle happens when the rideshare driver is in the process of picking up passengers or during the ride, Uber’s liability insurance policy can be available to pay accident claims.
- If the rideshare driver had the app on but was not actively engaged in picking up or transporting a passenger, a person who gets hurt in a crash during that time interval will look first to the automobile liability insurance policy of the rideshare driver. If that personal auto policy does not pay the claim, then Uber’s policy will apply.
- If the Uber app was turned off and the Uber driver was not waiting for a ride request, picking up passengers, or transporting passengers during a ride, then the Uber driver’s personal automobile liability insurance policy will apply.
Feel free to ask us any questions you have about this insurance coverage during your consultation. We are happy to help answer these questions.
