Ridesharing services like Uber and Lyft add convenience but also come with risks. Accidents in Scottsdale often result from:
Distracted rideshare drivers checking apps or GPS
Speeding and reckless driving
Driving under the influence
Drowsy driving after long shifts
Poor vehicle maintenance in rideshare vehicles
Confusion at pickup/drop-off points near crowded Scottsdale nightlife spots
When an accident occurs, determining fault and navigating the driver’s personal insurance versus Uber or Lyft’s insurance coverage can be complex. Accidents involving rideshare services differ from regular traffic incidents due to the involvement of a third party, the rideshare company. That’s why it’s crucial to consult with experienced rideshare accident attorneys today.
Scottsdale sees heavy use of rideshare services due to its nightlife, tourism, and events. According to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), Maricopa County accounted for the majority of Arizona’s car accidents, with over 85,000 crashes in 2023, many involving commercial and quasi-commercial vehicles like rideshares (ADOT Crash Facts 2023).
Nationally, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that rideshare-related traffic fatalities have steadily risen, with thousands of accident victims impacted each year (NHTSA Traffic Safety Data).
This rise highlights the importance of working with a Scottsdale rideshare accident lawyer who understands insurance providers, accident reports, and Arizona law.
As an accident victim, you have legal options when injured in a rideshare accident:
File claims against the rideshare driver’s personal insurance
Seek coverage through Uber or Lyft’s insurance policies (up to $1 million in certain cases)
Pursue financial compensation for medical expenses, repair costs, property damage expenses, lost wages, and bodily injury
Demand accountability from rideshare companies when negligence plays a role
Arizona law requires accident reports for serious crashes, and having an attorney ensures your rights are protected throughout the legal journey. In Arizona, victims must file a compensation claim within two years of the accident due to the statute of limitations for personal injury cases. Never admit fault at the accident scene, instead, allow us to gather evidence and handle communications with the insurance carrier.
Our team of rideshare accident lawyers will:
Investigate the accident and determine fault
Collect accident reports, medical records, and driver’s driving history
Work with medical experts to prove injuries like traumatic brain injuries, internal injuries, and PTSD
Negotiate aggressively with insurance adjusters and insurance providers
Take the case to court if necessary to pursue fair compensation
Build a strong case foundation by gathering and analyzing evidence.
We believe in vigorous representation for every client, whether your case involves a minor property damage dispute or severe, life-altering injuries.

Harris Injury Law
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
