If you were sexually assaulted or abused by an Uber or Lyft driver, you may qualify for compensation.
Thousands of riders have filed lawsuits against Uber and Lyft alleging the companies failed to implement adequate safety measures — including thorough background checks, in-app safety features, and driver monitoring — to prevent sexual assault and abuse by their drivers.
