What You Can Expect: Understanding Potential Compensation for Survivors of Rideshare Assault
Many survivors of sexual assault or other serious physical attacks often ask: “What will I receive if I bring a claim?”
The truth is, the answer isn’t straightforward—nor should it be. Each survivor’s experience is unique, and the compensation depends on the specific facts and circumstances of the case. That’s why we take a personalized approach in evaluating every claim, ensuring that every factor is considered in determining what might be expected in terms of monetary damages.
When discussing financial compensation, it’s essential to understand that the outcome can vary widely depending on whether a case is resolved through negotiation, mediation, or a jury verdict after a trial. Verdicts can reach into the millions of dollars, while settlements often range from hundreds of thousands to more, depending on the severity of the case.
Recent reports indicate that thousands of women have been sexually assaulted while using rideshare services like Lyft and Uber. These victims have sought financial compensation for the physical and emotional trauma they’ve endured. Compensation typically falls into three categories:
The Reality of Uber Assaults
For years, Uber neglected the issue of sexual assaults committed by their drivers. It wasn’t until 2017 that the company even began investigating these cases, and their first safety report—released in 2019—revealed shocking numbers: 3,045 sexual assaults in 2018 alone. These incidents ranged from unwanted touching to attempted rape and rape.
Even more alarming, Uber’s report didn’t cover non-sexual forms of assault, such as groping or sexual harassment. They also acknowledged cases of kidnapping and murder, affecting both passengers and drivers.
In the past, Uber restricted sexual assault survivors from filing lawsuits by forcing them into mandatory arbitration. This practice was only halted in 2019, after which Uber began facing hundreds of active lawsuits filed by survivors. Uber’s negligent hiring practices, insufficient driver background checks, and disregard for customer complaints have put thousands at risk. This underscores the importance of having an experienced legal team fighting to protect your rights.
Lyft’s Growing Assault Problem
For a long time, Lyft was seen as a safer alternative to Uber, but recent lawsuits have shown that Lyft riders face similar risks. While Uber has released data on assaults, Lyft has not—yet hundreds of women have come forward with lawsuits revealing a startling trend of sexual and physical assault.
Like Uber, Lyft’s inadequate driver vetting process and failure to investigate reports of inappropriate behavior have placed countless women in harm’s way. With hundreds of lawsuits filed in recent years, Lyft now faces the same pressure to protect its riders.
If you’ve been assaulted while using Lyft or Uber, know that you are not alone. Many survivors have successfully sought compensation for their suffering, and you can too.
