Rideshare (Uber & Lyft) Accidents claims in Boca Raton

Student rides make up a real share of the rideshare here. Late pickups near the Florida Atlantic campus, trips to Mizner Park and back, weekend runs down to Fort Lauderdale. Passengers in those cars are often young, often not on a policy of their own, and often sure that having no car means having no coverage, which is not how Florida's no-fault rules necessarily work and is worth asking a licensed attorney about instead of guessing. The app logged the trip. The driver's status at impact decides the coverage. Save the receipt before it disappears.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get a crash report in Boca Raton?

Boca Raton Police handle crashes inside the city, and the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office covers unincorporated areas just outside it. Florida Highway Patrol usually takes I-95 and the Turnpike. The report goes to FLHSMV and can be requested through the state crash portal or from the agency that responded. Get the case number before the scene is cleared.

Which court would handle a Boca Raton injury case?

Palm Beach County, in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit. The main courthouse is in West Palm Beach, and the county runs a south county courthouse closer to Boca. Smaller civil claims go to county court and larger ones to circuit court, and where yours belongs depends on the amount, which is a question for a licensed Florida attorney. We are not a law firm.

I was hit near the FAU campus. Who writes that report?

Boca Raton Police usually work the city streets around the campus, and Florida Atlantic University has its own police department for what happens on university property. The line between the two is not always obvious from inside a car. Ask which agency is taking the report before you leave. Then request it through FLHSMV or from that agency once it's filed.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in Florida?

In Florida, the deadline is generally 2 years from the date of the accident. Reduced from 4 to 2 years by HB 837 (2023). Wrongful death 2 years. Medical 2 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
