If you were assaulted during an Uber or Lyft ride, you’re not alone, and you may have the right to take legal action. Rideshare companies have a duty to protect passengers by properly screening drivers, responding to complaints, and removing dangerous individuals from their platforms. When they fail to do that, people get hurt and survivors are too often left to deal with the trauma on their own.
At Schlesinger Law Offices, we help survivors of rideshare assaults pursue justice and compensation. Whether the driver was arrested or not, you may still have a strong civil case. In many situations, companies like Uber and Lyft can be held accountable for negligence, especially if they ignored red flags or failed to investigate previous complaints against the driver.
We understand how difficult it can be to talk about what happened. That’s why we handle every case with the sensitivity and discretion it deserves. Our goal is not just to seek compensation for medical costs, emotional trauma, or lost wages but to help you reclaim a sense of control, dignity, and safety.
Depending on your case, you may be entitled to damages for:
- Pain and suffering
- Therapy and medical expenses
- Lost income
- Emotional distress
- And more
At Schlesinger Law Offices, we’ve been holding powerful companies accountable for over 70 years. We have the resources, experience, and compassion to stand by your side and fight for what you deserve.

FAQ:
What should I do if I was assaulted during a rideshare trip?
Your safety is the top priority. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 and seek medical attention if needed. Document as much information as possible, such as the driver’s name, license plate, and trip details. Report the incident to the rideshare company and contact an experienced attorney to understand your legal options.
Can I sue the rideshare company for an assault that happened during my ride?
It depends on the circumstances. Rideshare companies may be held liable if they failed to conduct proper background checks, ignored safety complaints, or did not take reasonable measures to ensure passenger safety. An attorney can help evaluate your case and determine liability.
Do I need to report the incident to the rideshare company?
Reporting the assault to the rideshare company creates a record of the incident and may be necessary to pursue legal action. However, it’s a good idea to consult with an attorney before providing detailed statements.
What if I don’t have evidence of the assault?
Even if you don’t have physical evidence, an attorney can help build your case using other types of proof, such as witness statements, trip records, driver history, and expert testimony. Don’t let a lack of evidence deter you from seeking legal advice.
How much does it cost to hire an attorney for my case?
At our firm, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing upfront. We only get paid if we recover compensation for you, so you can focus on your recovery without financial stress.
