DM Injury Law represents Kansas City rideshare accident victims from 4600 Madison Avenue Suite 1200, Kansas City, MO 64112, available 24/7 at 816-888-7500. Michael DiPasquale and Jason Moore lead a team including Todd Lucas, Katherine Corwin, and Ryan Watson handling Uber and Lyft accident cases involving complex insurance coverage issues. Rideshare drivers classified as independent contractors create unique liability challenges, with coverage varying based on app usage and passenger presence. Commercial $1 million policies cover passengers during rides, while contingent coverage applies between fares when drivers use the app. Common causes include distracted driving, drunk driving, poorly maintained vehicles, road conditions, red light violations, and speeding. The firm investigates driver qualifications, substance abuse histories, and criminal records when companies fail to ensure safety. Post-accident steps involve calling police for documentation, seeking medical attention within proper timeframes, collecting evidence including photographs and witness statements, and consulting attorneys before insurance communications. Recent settlements include $11 million for work zone fatalities, $8.8 million for TBI from defective vehicles, $4.85 million for electrocution deaths, and multiple multi-million dollar motor vehicle accident recoveries. Additional offices in Saint Louis, Oklahoma City, Columbia, Wichita, Topeka, Denver, and Tulsa extend representation across multiple states, with contingency fees ensuring payment only upon successful case resolution.

Wendt and Nick Hillyard bring over 50 years combined experience handling rear-end collisions, head-on crashes, rollovers, side-impacts, motorcycle accidents, commercial truck collisions, pedestrian accidents, rideshare accidents, multi-vehicle crashes, and accidents caused by distracted driving, drunk driving, or defective vehicle equipment. The Joplin car accident lawyers investigate collisions to establish duty of care, breach, causation, and actual damages under Missouri’s at-fault rules requiring claims against liable parties’ insurers. They identify responsible parties including negligent drivers, vehicle owners, commercial employers under vicarious liability, manufacturers of defective parts, mechanics performing improper repairs, and government agencies maintaining roads. The firm pursues economic damages for property damage, medical bills, long-term care costs, lost income, and reduced earning capacity, plus non-economic compensation for pain and suffering, mental trauma, loss of enjoyment, disfigurement, disability, and loss of consortium. Handling injuries from cuts and contusions to traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, paralysis, amputations, and internal organ damage, Wendt Law operates on contingency fees covering all upfront costs. They manage insurance negotiations, complete investigations, and litigate when adjusters refuse fair settlements, scaling their approach from single tool calls for simple claims to comprehensive research for complex multi-party accidents.
Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys at 510 Walnut Street Suite 100, Kansas City, MO 64106 handles Uber and Lyft rideshare accidents at (816) 471-5111. James Roswold, Jim Brady, John Thomas, Lee Hardee, and Phillip B. Grubaugh represent passengers helpless during crashes caused by rideshare drivers who require only four-door cars and licenses despite claims of driver vetting based on driving records. Common accident causes include driver fatigue from working excessive hours for compensation, distracted driving from monitoring rates requests and messages through phone interfaces, driving under the influence affecting reflexes and decision-making, excessive speeding, traffic violations including running lights and aggressive driving. Uber releases incomplete safety reports omitting injury tracking and understating fatalities, actively hiding damaging details while depending on success and profit over accountability. The firm’s experienced attorneys build cases poking holes in defenses, manipulating weak points against insurance companies counting on victims avoiding court or self-representation. Uber carries liability insurance covering injuries up to $1 million depending on circumstances, though the company asserts drivers are contractors rather than employees to avoid lawsuits and accountability. Lyft operates similarly classifying workers as contractors attempting liability avoidance when drivers cause accidents. The attorneys maintain offices in Lees Summit, Overland Park, St. Joseph, Parkville, and Olathe, documenting every case aspect while taking responsible parties to court as clients focus on recovery. Kansas City roads including Barrett Road, US-129 intersections, and Gainesville West Shopping Center parking lots see regular rideshare accidents requiring experienced legal representation protecting passenger rights against companies prioritizing profits over safety.
Brown & Crouppen serves Kansas City Uber and Lyft accident victims from 2345 Grand Blvd #675, Kansas City, MO 64108 at (816) 670-4701 with over 40 years experience recovering over $1 billion in compensation. Founding Partner Terry Crouppen leads attorneys handling rideshare accidents where liability depends on driver status: off-duty drivers trigger personal insurance only; app-on waiting drivers activate $50,000/$100,000 bodily injury and $25,000 property damage coverage; active trips engage $1 million third-party liability plus uninsured motorist and comprehensive collision coverage with $2,500 deductible. The firm investigates collisions, gathers evidence, prepares insurance claims, negotiates with at-fault parties, and prepares for trial when fair settlements aren’t offered. While rideshare drivers are independent contractors preventing direct company lawsuits, attorneys pursue claims against third-party motorists, truck drivers, motorcyclists, property owners, and municipalities. Recent results include $750,000 for suspected drunk driving rear-end, $500,000 for high-speed interstate collision, and $400,000 for head-on truck collision.
