California Uber/Lyft Lawyers Advocate for Sexual Assault Victims
Our team of California Uber/Lyft assault attorneys has represented thousands of victims of dangerous consumer products. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from rideshare companies and their affiliates, and do not file claims against our clients’ assailant, employer or medical providers.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified rideshare claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim California Uber/Lyft passengers can make for sexual assault compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. (Follow this link for our latest information on the Uber-Lyft Multi-District Litigation.)
Our California Uber and Lyft sexual abuse lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm the use of a qualified rideshare company and the occurrence of driver abuse. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

9th Circuit Uber/Lyft Assault Claims in California
California is part of the Ninth Circuit of the federal court system, and individual Uber/Lyft assault lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Abusive-driver appeals are heard by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal Uber/Lyft lawsuits filed in California may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a sexual assault Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 9th Circuit Uber-Lyft assault compensation.)
California State Uber/Lyft Assault Claims
California Uber/Lyft lawyers can also file sexual assault lawsuits in the State’s county courts (CA Courts website). Section 1714 of the California Civil Code sets forth the State’s procedural law for passenger abuse claims.
The State of California follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a California Uber/Lyft lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by rideshare companies regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the passenger’s recovery is reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
