A Sexual Assault Attorney Can Help You Seek Justice
If you are a survivor of sexual assault by an Uber or Lyft driver, you may be entitled to several types of compensation. These damages are not just about covering financial losses but also about ensuring you receive the justice you deserve.
- Medical Expenses: You can recover compensation for the costs of medical treatment related to the assault, including emergency care, ongoing treatment, and therapy.
- Emotional Distress: The emotional trauma from such an experience can be profound. You may be entitled to damages for pain and suffering and mental anguish caused by the assault.
- Lost Wages: If the assault affected your ability to work temporarily or long-term, you can recover wages you’ve lost as a result of your injuries or emotional distress.
- Compensation for Future Treatment: Compensation for long-term physical or psychological impacts, such as future medical treatment, therapy, or counseling, can be recoverable.
While no amount of money can undo the trauma you’ve experienced, pursuing these damages sends a strong message that Uber, Lyft, and their drivers must be held accountable. At The Goldwater Law Firm, we are here to help you secure the justice you deserve and fight for compensation to help you heal and rebuild your life.
