Uber Accident and Injury Attorneys in Beaumont, Texas
In Need of an Uber Accident and Injury Lawyer in Beaumont, TX?
At the Hollingsworth Law Firm, our Beaumont Uber accident lawyers know that getting hurt in a crash with a Texas rideshare driver can change your life. The question becomes, who is liable for your damages? The rideshare driver? The rideshare company? Another driver?
Pursuing an insurance claim against any liable party requires proving liability, which can be established by supporting documentation of the crash, including a police report, medical records, and evidence of damages.
Our Jefferson County Uber accident attorneys can help you determine which party was liable and which insurance coverage we can pursue to achieve the best outcome for your claim.
How to Determine Who is Liable for an Uber Accident in Beaumont, Texas
Determining liability for an Uber accident in Texas involves considering various factors, including the driver’s actions, other motorists’ actions, and any contributing factors that may have led to the accident.
That may include:
- The Uber Driver’s Actions
Assess the actions of the Uber driver leading up to the accident. Determine if the driver was following traffic laws, driving recklessly, speeding, or engaged in distracted driving behaviors like texting or using the Uber app while driving.
- The Uber Driver’s Status
Consider the driver’s status at the time of the accident:
- Was the driver logged into the Uber app and available to accept ride requests?
- Was the driver en route to pick up or transport a passenger?
- Was the driver off-duty and not working for Uber at the time of the accident?
The driver’s status is a primary component in determining which insurance coverage can be pursued for your complete financial recovery.
- Uber’s Insurance Coverage
Understand Uber’s insurance coverage based on the driver’s status:
- If the driver was offline or not working for Uber at the time of the accident, their personal auto insurance policy typically applies.
- Uber provides limited liability coverage if the driver was logged into the Uber app but has not yet accepted a ride request.
- Uber’s commercial insurance coverage applies if the driver was en route to pick up a passenger or had a passenger in the vehicle.
At Hollingsworth Law firm, we evaluate the actions of the Uber driver and other motorists involved in the accident to determine if any other driver’s negligence, like running a red light or failing to yield, contributed to the accident.
Once we have a clear picture of everyone involved in the crash, the driver’s status, and the extent of your injuries, we can help you pursue the liable party or combination of parties for your complete financial recovery needs.

Steve is the real deal! He is an extremely invaluable resource on all things Litigation for me as a younger attorney. He is not only great a securing the bigger verdicts, but actually cares about the clients and still sticks by his tried and true method of meeting, in person, with his clients to go over facts . overall, a solid attorney, with a wealth of knowledge!
After working with Steve for a couple of years, I found Steve to be an outstanding, aggressive and highly skilled lawyer in the courtroom. His confidence and knowledge of the courtroom and what it takes to succeed there, I believe will ensure his long term prosperity.
I had the pleasure of working on a trial with Steven last August. His background as an ADA is clearly evident in the courtroom. Steven's presentation of the evidence throughout trial is that of a seasoned attorney who has spent many hours in front of a jury. His opening/closings were excellent, as well as his strategic litigating throughout the trial. Steven is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with, and watch in the courtroom.
When I met Steve, I was a legal assistant at a Plaintiff’s firm and he was working as an attorney for AIG. We connected there and then. Steve is a likable guy and an outstanding trial lawyer. He is charismatic and jurors like him. He is a Plaintiff’s lawyer now and he has the right skill set to represent injured individuals: he is compassionate, honest, and sincere and will go the extra mile for his clients. I’ve known Steve for almost 8 years now and I’m excited to see his career evolve.
