Injury Attorneys for Victims of Sexual Assault in San Antonio TX Uber/Lyft Incidents

If you or a loved one has been the victim of sexual assault from an Uber or Lyft driver, the San Antonio attorneys at Carabin Shaw will work with you to ensure that your attacker is held accountable for their crimes and the damages you have suffered.

Sexual assault is a heinous crime. Despite the efforts of Uber and Lyft to reduce its occurrences, inaccurate record keeping or one mistake in their hiring process is all it takes for the worst-case scenario to become reality. At Carabin Shaw, our experts protect rideshare assault victim rights. Contacting our staff is your first step towards winning the justice and compensation you are entitled to.

Uber and Lyft are required by law to create public safety reports, releasing information about various types of assaults and attacks perpetrated by their drivers. However, Uber’s safety reports only include information about the “5 most serious categories” of sexual assault. This release of partial information can be misleading, and sexual assault from rideshare drivers is more common than these reports would have victims think.

With Lyft reporting a 20% increase in rides year-over-year, and similar numbers from Uber, rates of assault in San Antonio increased as well. Our San Antonio sexual assault injury attorneys dedicate themselves to holding attackers accountable, and fighting, tooth and nail, for every but of legal justice and financial compensation that assault victims are entitled to.

More than a sexual assault case in other circumstances, sexual assault claims against rideshare drivers can be frustratingly complicated. Rideshare companies know how dangerous it is for them to be held liable for these assaults, and they will often abandon Uber/Lyft sexual assault victim advocacy in order to protect themselves.

After suffering from a rideshare sexual assault experience in San Antonio, you deserve to have a trusted attorney in your corner who will pursue your best interests and offer the support that you are entitled to as a victim.

We offer free initial consultation to victims of rideshare sexual assault incidents. This guarantees that you have access to all of the information that you are entitled to, and provides a safe space for you to discuss the circumstances of your experience without judgment. Additionally, because we offer our services on a contingency-fee basis, our support comes to you at no cost until your case is won.

Legal cases against perpetrators of Uber/Lyft sexual assault can take various forms. In some cases, they will be criminal cases, in others, they will be civil cases, and sometimes they can be both. Additionally, while legal representation for Uber/Lyft assault victims can pursue compensation from the attacker, that legal representation can also pursue claims against Uber or Lyft directly.

In many cases, rideshare companies can be held liable for sexual assault if they are found to be negligent in the hiring process that led to the driver committing assault.
