Injured in a Lyft Accident in Maryland?
We’re Ready to Fight for You
Whether you were riding in a Lyft, driving your own vehicle, or walking nearby, a collision involving a rideshare vehicle can turn your life upside down. Medical bills, insurance confusion, and lost wages pile up fast—especially when it’s unclear who’s responsible.
At The Law Offices of Nicholas A. Parr, we help people across Maryland get clarity, take action, and recover fair compensation after Lyft-related accidents. If you’re unsure of your rights after being hurt in a crash involving a Lyft driver, we’re here to help.
What Makes Lyft Accident Cases So Complex?
Lyft accidents are not like typical car crashes. That’s because multiple insurance policies may be involved, and Lyft’s coverage only applies under certain circumstances. The key issue is whether the driver was logged into the app—and whether they had accepted a ride or were actively transporting a passenger at the time of the crash.
Here’s how it breaks down:
- Driver not logged into the app: Only the driver’s personal auto insurance applies.
- Driver logged in, waiting for a ride request: Lyft provides limited third-party liability coverage.
- Driver en route to a passenger or mid-ride: Lyft offers up to $1 million in liability coverage, plus coverage for uninsured or underinsured motorists.
Sorting out which policy applies—and who’s liable—can be difficult without legal experience. That’s where we come in.
Common Lyft Accident Scenarios We Handle
At our firm, we’ve seen how these accidents happen from every angle. We represent:
- Passengers injured during a Lyft ride
- Drivers or passengers in other vehicles hit by a Lyft
- Pedestrians or cyclists struck by a Lyft driver

Each of these cases involves different legal challenges and potential sources of compensation. That’s why working with a knowledgeable attorney can make all the difference in the outcome of your claim.
What to Do After a Lyft Accident in Maryland
If you’ve been involved in a Lyft-related crash, here’s how to protect your health—and your claim:
- Get medical care immediately, even if your injuries seem minor.
- Call the police and ensure an accident report is filed.
- Take photos of the scene, the vehicles, injuries, and road conditions.
- Get names and contact info of any witnesses and all drivers involved.
- Use the Lyft app to report the incident, if you were a passenger.
- Contact a personal injury lawyer before speaking with insurance companies.
Don’t let a confusing insurance situation stop you from getting the care and compensation you need.
