Leave the vehicle and get to safety. Call 911 if you are in immediate danger or contact Crisis Support Services of Nevada for support.
Screenshot your trip details, driver information, and ride receipt in the Uber or Lyft app before anything can be altered or deleted.
Go to Renown Regional Medical Center or a SART facility for a forensic exam. Medical evidence is important for both criminal and civil proceedings.
Civil claims against Uber and Lyft are complex and require attorneys who understand rideshare company liability. Phoong Law fights for survivors.
Rideshare sexual assaults occur when drivers use their position of trust and control to assault passengers. These incidents are particularly traumatic because passengers are in a confined space with a stranger they trusted through the platform. Reno’s casino and tourism industry, special events, and nightlife mean many residents and visitors rely on rideshare services, especially late at night.
Both Uber and Lyft have faced lawsuits for inadequate driver screening, failure to act on complaints, and insufficient safety measures. Nevada law allows survivors to pursue civil claims against the rideshare companies in addition to the individual driver. Phoong Law provides trauma informed representation for rideshare assault survivors.
Rideshare sexual assault claims can result in substantial compensation given the severe emotional harm and the corporate liability of companies that failed to protect passengers. These cases hold both the driver and the rideshare company accountable.
Specialized trauma therapy, PTSD treatment, psychiatric care, and long term counseling for assault survivors.
Emergency medical care, forensic examination, medications, and ongoing physical treatment related to the assault.
Income lost during recovery and long term career disruption caused by the psychological impact of the assault.
The profound emotional anguish, fear, loss of trust, and lasting impact on your sense of safety and daily life.
