My husband was involved in a car accident, and we were overwhelmed by the process of dealing with insurance companies, medical bills, and legal paperwork. From the moment we hired Jaime Cumming, everything became so much easier. She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to her clients. Jaime and her team handled every aspect of our case efficiently, kept us informed with clear and timely communication, and made sure no detail was overlooked.

It depends on the situation. In Washington, several different insurance policies might apply, and the one that pays will depend on your role in the crash. The key question is who was at fault and what your connection is to the rideshare vehicle. For example:
Each scenario triggers different insurance layers, including the rideshare company’s coverage, the at?fault driver’s insurance, and sometimes your own policy.
Always call 911, get medical attention, and gather information from the driver, passengers, and witnesses. Take photos of the vehicles, scene, and injuries. Report the crash to the rideshare company through its app. Then, contact an attorney before speaking with any insurance adjusters.
In most cases, your claim will be handled through the rideshare company’s insurance provider rather than suing the company itself. However, if corporate negligence played a role in the accident, there may be grounds for direct legal action.
You always have the choice to manage a claim on your own. Rideshare accidents often involve multiple insurance companies and complex coverage rules. An experienced lawyer can sort through these details, protect your rights, and pursue full compensation for your losses.
You’ll work directly with attorney Jaime Cumming and a team that prioritizes honest advice, strong communication, and a clear plan forward — from day one to resolution.
