The Roth Firm Publishes New Blog On The Steps To Take After An Uber Accident

James M. Roth with the Roth Firm in Atlanta, Georgia has announced a new blog post. The firm states that they recently published a new blog enlightening consumers on what they need to do if the are involved in an automobile accident while riding in an Uber car. The blog post is live now and consumers can visit the firm’s website to view it and learn about getting medical bills paid after an accident.

Roth says, “People need to understand that Uber drivers are just as responsible for accidents as any other driver. If you were involved in an accident while riding in a traditional taxi, you would expect the taxi company to pay your medical expenses. Riding in an Uber is no different.”

Roth says that many consumers are confused by who should pay their medical bills if they are injured while riding as a passenger in an automobile accident, particularly if that accident involves Uber. He says that the steps to getting compensation can be complicated in the case of Uber drivers because some driver’s personal insurance companies may claim that Uber should paid the medical bills while Uber may claim that it is the responsibility of the driver’s insurance company. He says that it can be so confusing that some passengers may not even bother with seeking this compensation and that even drivers can often be confused as to where the responsibility lies.

“If you are injured in an accident due to the negligence of someone else, then you need to be compensated,” says Roth. “You need to know what specific steps need to be taken to get you on the right track for getting you compensated for time that you are missing from work, your medical bills and other costs related to your injuries.”

Roth says that there are specific steps after an Uber accident that need to be taken and he states that these steps need to be taken as quickly as possible. He says that the new blog post outlines the steps and further explains the urgency with which victims should contact a qualified personal injury attorney. He says that the first thing that should be done by anyone who is involved in an accident is to seek medical help, even if they do not feel that they have incurred an injury. Many injuries go unnoticed for hours or even days after an accident. Roth states that it is imperative that those who have been involved in an auto accident seek medical attention immediately.

The next step he says is to contact a qualified and experienced personal injury attorney. He says that experience is a must when it comes to pursuing Uber or other similar companies for compensation for accidents. He states that those who are driving cars for Uber when an accident occurs also need to take certain steps such as notifying the authorities, exchanging insurance information and getting any information from witnesses to the accident, which could be useful later in determining who was at fault for the accident.

The attorney says that any auto accident should not be taken lightly. He states that anyone who is involved should contact the proper authorities, seek medical attention and then contact an attorney to ensure that their rights are protected just in case of injury or massive damage to the vehicle involved.

Roth says that given the sheer number of Uber drivers in the nation today, the possibility of being involved in an Uber accident in some capacity is fairly high. He states that the firm’s latest blog post covers what Uber drivers themselves need to do if they are involved in an accident and what the passengers in an Uber car should do if they are involved in an auto accident with an Uber driver. He says that this information is imperative for those who regularly take Ubers to work and other place and for the drivers of Uber cars.
