Injured on a Ride Share Provider

With the explosion of ride-sharing services in the East Pasadena, CA area, you may not be the one behind the wheel when an accident occurs; but you still may be injured.While calling Uber®, Lyft®, or any other type of ride sharing company may be easy, it isn't always safe. And, since you are not in control of the motor vehicle, you also aren't in control of your destiny. You would be expecting that as "professional" drivers, the people behind the wheel of ride-sharing services would have highly-evolved capabilities that complement their ability to get you to your desired destination safely, but regretfully that is not 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), which means you are at greater risk today than before these services existed.So what should you do if you are associated with a traffic accident while a 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 evolve; laws may vary across state lines and we know the terrain. So if you are involved in an accident while a passenger in a ride hailing service, call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC for a free, no obligation assessment.

Cabs and Limousines

Contracting a traditional cab or limousine service is a little different. Because they have been available for awhile, the legal complexities and processes are much more clear. While ride hailing services like Uber® and Lyft® are relatively new, taxi cabs and limousines have been around since before cars were invented! The major difference between dealing with Uber® and Lyft® or a taxi/limousine service is the underlying company; Uber® and Lyft® are nationwide, while taxi and limousine services are usually locally owned or operated.Because taxis and limos are ordinarily corporately/company owned, they may be regulated even more rigorously and subject to greater standards of care. Our team of experienced legal professionals will ensure that you receive the care and attention 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 an accident with a minicab or limousine - even if you are in a different vehicle - will also require the ability of a professional lawyer. Call us today at (877) 278-6890.

Car Rental Accidents

If you are involved in a major accident while operating a rental car, you will surely have to deal with additional inconveniences not present in the case of a vehicle accident with your own car or truck.Along with the strain of the accident, any injuries, any property damage, and the physical and emotional well-being of all parties involved in the actual accident, having to contend with a corporate entity like a rental car company adds another layer of complexity to your situation. Factors like:

• Establishing responsibility - Who is at fault and to what extent?
• Insurance coverage - Did you buy extra insurance from the car rental business? What does your private insurance policy provide? Who pays first?

In short, while being involved in an automobile accident is nerve-racking enough, the additional duty of reporting to the rental car company can be overwhelming. Allow our attorneys to deal with everything for you and your family. Call (877) 278-6890 now to talk to one of our legal professionals.

Rear End Collisions

Even if you do every single thing the right way, you can still be involved in a crash. One of the most common types of accidents are rear-end crashes and make up 29% of all accidents (NHTSA, 2017)So if your vehicle is sitting at a stop sign or intersection (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 established. 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 acute trauma.The more quickly the vehicle that hits you is going, the more powerful the "unbalanced force" will be, and the more extensive the harm to you and your vehicle. It doesn't matter, however, if the vehicle that hits you is moving fast or slow, there will be damage, and you will want 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 East Pasadena, CA area's best professional counsel.
