San Antonio Rideshare Assault Attorneys - Advocating for Victims' Rights

As rideshare services become more and more widely used throughout San Antonio, instances of assault similarly rise. Assault claims against rideshare drivers are at an all-time high across the United States. If you have been the victim of such an assault, then the San Antonio personal injury lawyers at Carabin Shaw will help you fight for the legal and financial compensation you deserve.

The United States Census Bureau places the San Antonio population at nearly 1.5 million people. Meanwhile, the San Antonio culture map estimates that 9% of San Antonio households do not own cars. With 2.62 people per household in San Antonio, this leaves tens of thousands of San Antonio residents with no way to travel longer distances, other than through public transportation and rideshare services.

Rideshare assault in San Antonio Tx can occur on any ride, and to any passenger. While Uber and Lyft are required to report instances of assault to the government regularly, their numbers only take fatal assaults into account and are, therefore, unreliable.

If you or a loved one has been assaulted by a rideshare driver, trusted Texas rideshare assault attorneys will advocate for justice on your behalf. To ask questions about your case and get additional information about what these legal processes look like, as well as what sort of case you should pursue, contact our English and Spanish-speaking experts. They are available 24/7 at the toll-free number 1-800-862-1260.

Assault can feel like a vague umbrella term in legal cases, and it covers several categories in Texas. Any of these assaults can provoke legal action from a victim, and an expert attorney can help you to better understand which category your assault incident falls into.

This category includes assaults where the victim was either threatened by violence or suffered violence but did not sustain injury. As a Class Misdemeanor, such assault cases can result in convictions and fines. Because these assaults do not result in injury, civil lawsuits for financial compensation are rare.

Such assaults are Class A Misdemeanors and result in injuries to the victim from the rideshare driver. Because of sustained injuries, legal advocacy for rideshare assault victims in these cases often includes lawsuits to recover the costs of medical treatment, pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and other associated damages.
