Injured during Ride sharing Provider
With the surge of ride-sharing services in the Montclair, CA area, you may not be the one driving when an accident happens; but you still may be hurt.While contacting Uber®, Lyft®, or any other type of ride sharing service may be simple and easy, it isn't always safe. And, since you are not in control of the vehicle, you also aren't in control of your circumstances. You would hope that as "professional" drivers, the people behind the wheel of ride-sharing services would have exceptional skills that complement their competence to get you to your destination safely, but regrettably that isn't always the case. Studies show that since 2011 ride-sharing companies have increased traffic deaths in the US by 2%-3% (University of Chicago and Rice University), meaning you are more at risk today than before these services existed.So what should you do if you are associated with any sort of accident while a paying passenger in a "commercial" vehicle driven as part of a rideshare? Call us today at (877) 278-6890. This is especially true as the legal landscape of these companies continues to change; laws may vary across state lines and our professionals know the terrain. So if you are involved in an accident while a passenger in a ride sharing service, call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC for a free, no commitment consultation.
Limousines and Cabs
Hiring a traditional taxi cab or limo service is a little different. Because they have been around for awhile, the legal complexities and processes are much more clear. While ride-hailing services like Uber® and Lyft® are relatively new, cabs and limos have been around since before cars had motors! The basic difference between dealing with Uber® and Lyft® or a taxi/limousine service is the underlying business; Uber® and Lyft® are nationwide, while taxi and limousine services are usually locally owned or operated.Because taxi cabs and limousines are usually corporately/company owned, they may be regulated even more rigorously and subject to more substantial standards of care. Our team of experienced lawyers will ensure that you receive the care and consideration your individual case demands and that you won't get "bullied" by a large transportation company. Call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC today for a FREE CONSULTATION.It goes without saying that getting in a vehicle accident involving a taxi cab or limousine - even if you are in a different vehicle - will also call for the resources of a highly skilled attorney. Call us today at (877) 278-6890.
Rental Car Accidents
If you are involved in an automobile accident while driving a rental car, you are going to have to deal with extra inconveniences not present in the case of an automobile accident with your private car or truck.Along with the tension of the accident, any injuries, any property damage, and the physical and emotional well-being of all persons involved in the actual accident, having to fight with a corporate entity like a rental car company adds another layer of difficulty to your situation. Factors like:
- Determining liability - Who is at fault and to what degree?
- Insurance coverage - Did you get extra insurance from the rental car business? What does your private insurance coverage provide? Who pays first?
In short, while being involved in an vehicle accident is stressful enough, the additional responsibility of dealing with the rental car company can be daunting. Allow our law firm to handle everything for you. Call (877) 278-6890 now to seek advice from one of our legal professionals. We have years of expertise in rental car accident law and have helped myriad people in the Montclair, CA area.
Rear-End Accidents
Even if you do every single thing properly, you can still be involved in an accident. One of the most common types of accidents are rear-end crashes and make up 29% of all accidents (NHTSA, 2017)So if your motor vehicle is waiting at a stop sign or crossroad (you are "at rest") and the car behind you fails to stop ("an object in motion"), your vehicle will be acted upon by that "unbalanced force" and will be forced forward when contact is made. Not only will this damage your vehicle, but since you are also "at rest" inside the vehicle, the "unbalanced force" will also act on your body like it does your car, creating a "whiplash" effect that can cause you serious trauma.The more quickly the vehicle that hits you is moving, the stronger the "unbalanced force" will be, and the greater the damage to you and your vehicle. It doesn't matter, however, if the vehicle that hits you is moving fast or slow, there will be damages, and you will need to contact us to assess that damage and your potential remedies.You need an advocate who will fight for you and your legal rights. You need Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC. Call us at (877) 278-6890 to receive the Montclair, CA area's best professional counsel.
Injuries Resulting from Drunk Driving and Driving Under the Influence (DUI) Accidents

Whether it's prescription drugs, alcohol, marijuana, or even over-the-counter pills, your abilities are reduced when you have intoxicants in your blood stream.
