Personal Injury Lawyers File Lawsuit Against Uber and Other Defendants After Nevada Car Accident

The Ammons Law Firm has taken legal action against Uber Technologies, Inc., Rasier, LLC, and other defendants following a severe car accident in Las Vegas, Nevada. The lawsuit stems from a collision involving an Uber ride-share vehicle and another car, resulting in serious injuries to a passenger.

According to the legal complaint, the incident occurred at the intersection of Casino Center Boulevard and 4th Street in Las Vegas. The plaintiff, a passenger in an Uber vehicle, was being transported through the ride-share app when the collision happened. The Uber driver allegedly failed to use proper caution when entering the intersection, did not keep a proper lookout for other vehicles, and failed to take evasive action to avoid the crash.

The lawsuit claims that Uber and its subsidiary, Rasier, are liable for the actions of their driver under the legal principle of respondeat superior, which holds employers responsible for the actions of their employees while on the job. The complaint also alleges that Uber was negligent in hiring, training, and supervising the driver.

In addition to the claims against Uber, the lawsuit includes allegations against the driver of the other vehicle involved in the crash. This driver allegedly ran a red light and struck the Uber vehicle, causing severe injuries to the passenger.

The legal action seeks compensation for the injured party’s medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages resulting from the accident. The Ammons Law Firm is pursuing multiple causes of action, including negligence, negligence per se, and respondeat superior.

This case highlights the complex legal issues that can arise in accidents involving ride-share companies. It raises questions about the responsibility of companies like Uber for the actions of their drivers and the safety measures they have in place to protect passengers.
