✅ If both drivers are considered in the wrong, insurers will dispute the extent of each driver’s responsibility.
Insurance companies will play hard with each other –and with you, the injured passenger. They hope that someone gives in and accepts a less favorable arrangement. Unfortunately, that person is usually the passenger.
🔹 Example: If both drivers are deemed equally liable, each insurer must cover 50% of the passenger’s claim.
But if one of them disagrees with its liability share and insists on paying less, the case cannot be settled.
Either the insurance company agrees to pay its portion or for the passenger -you- accepts a reduced settlement.
Liga De Justicia car accident lawyers have decades of experience dealing with these taxi and rideshare companies. Our legal team will ensure that you are not forced to accept an unfair settlement.

But if the injuries among passengers differ greatly, make sure the lawyer can handle all cases in a fair manner.
🚫 It is not advisable to share the same lawyer with the cab driver or passengers of the other car involved in the crash. Each of you have different legal interests. Your best chance at full compensation is with separate legal representation to avoid conflicts of interest.
