The Fee Difference

Keep 75% of Your Settlement

Qualifying RideClaim clients pay a 25% attorney fee. Most California personal injury attorneys charge 33% to 40%. On a real case, that difference is significant.

RideClaim Partner Attorney
25%
On a $1,000,000 settlement:
$250,000 in attorney fees
You keep $750,000
Standard PI Attorney
33-40%
On a $1,000,000 settlement:
$330,000 to $400,000 in attorney fees
You keep $600,000 to $670,000

On a $1,000,000 settlement — you keep $80,000 to $150,000 more with a RideClaim partner attorney than with a standard California PI firm.

25% on qualifying cases settled out of court. 35% if case proceeds to trial. Before case costs, medical liens and other deductions. No other California rideshare platform offers this.

Our Promise to Every Victim

Traditional accident lead sites often start by asking for your contact information. RideClaim starts by giving you information. Get your estimate without providing a phone number or email. If you later decide you want legal help, we will introduce you to our exclusive partner attorney — not auction your information to multiple firms. And that attorney caps fees at 25%, because we believe the money from your settlement belongs to you.

"Being a lawyer comes with a lot of assumed credibility. You still have to earn it by delivering for your clients. I take on the stress so they do not have to."

California Law 2026

Know Where You Stand

California requires Uber and Lyft to carry a $1,000,000 policy, and a 2026 law called SB 371 changed part of your coverage. We break down exactly what changed, what did not, and what it means for your claim.
