Editorial Team
Reviewed by our editorial team. Updated May 2026.
All content on rideshareaccidentcalc.com is written, reviewed, and updated by The Click Lab's editorial team. This page describes our editorial standards, our personnel, and how to request a correction.
Our Editorial Standards
- Every factual claim about rideshare insurance structure, coverage limits, and legal standards is sourced to a primary authority: Uber and Lyft's published insurance disclosures, state insurance department filings, specific statutes, or published court decisions.
- Calculator formulas, multipliers, and phase cap assumptions are fully documented on the methodology page. Every assumption is stated and explained.
- Content is reviewed and updated when Uber or Lyft change their coverage programs, when state legislatures enact new rideshare insurance requirements, or when significant court decisions affect how rideshare claims are handled.
- No content is sponsored or influenced by insurance companies, rideshare platforms, or law firms. Our only revenue is Google AdSense display advertising.
- We present ranges with acknowledged uncertainty. Settlement values in personal injury cases are highly fact-specific, and no calculator can substitute for legal counsel on an actual claim.
Corrections Policy
If you find an error — a wrong coverage limit, an outdated Phase 1 amount, a misstated legal standard — email us at hey@theclicklab.agency with a description of the error and a citation to the correct authority. We review all corrections and update promptly when errors are confirmed.
Rideshare & Transportation Accident Practice
Our editorial team oversees all editorial content on rideshareaccidentcalc.com, drawing on a background in personal injury law with a focus on transportation-related claims, including rideshare accident litigation, commercial vehicle accidents, and the multi-party insurance coverage disputes that arise from modern gig-economy platforms. This side of the team monitors changes to Uber and Lyft's insurance programs, tracks state-level rideshare insurance legislation, and reviews all new and updated content for accuracy against current coverage structures and case law.
Insurance Coverage & Gig Economy Reference
Our team also contributes research and drafting for guides covering the insurance mechanics of rideshare accident claims: period classification disputes, contingent coverage triggers, independent contractor liability arguments, and the procedural steps for filing multi-party claims, drawing on a background in insurance coverage analysis and research into how personal auto policy commercial-use exclusions interact with rideshare company coverage programs across different states.
Scope of Content
Our content covers Uber and Lyft accident claims in the United States, including the three-phase insurance structure, settlement valuation methodology, and procedural steps for injured passengers, third parties, and drivers. We do not cover international rideshare platforms or non-U.S. insurance frameworks. For jurisdiction-specific guidance or case-specific advice, consult a licensed personal injury attorney. Most rideshare accident attorneys work on contingency with no upfront fee.
