What is RideshareAbuse.com?
RideshareAbuse.com is a resource created to help individuals who experienced abuse, assault, harassment, or other harm during or after using rideshare services such as Uber, Lyft, or similar platforms. We provide a confidential way to share your experience and connect with legal teams who may be able to help.
What types of incidents qualify?
We help connect survivors experiencing serious incidents related to a rideshare driver or rideshare trip, including:
-
Sexual assault or unwanted physical contact
-
Harassment, stalking, or explicit messages
-
Kidnapping or refusal to end a ride
-
Physical assault or threats
-
Any conduct that made you feel unsafe or violated
If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, completing the form is the best first step
-
What if the incident happened months or years ago?
You may still have legal options. Every state has its own time limits for filing a case, known as the statute of limitations. Many survivors don’t report right away — and that delay does not automatically prevent action
Will the rideshare driver or company find out I contacted you?
No. Submitting information through this site is confidential and private. If a case moves forward, the legal team will guide you through the process and protect your privacy as much as possible.
Will my information stay private?
Yes. All submissions are encrypted and shared only with vetted legal partners for review.
What happens after I submit my information?
A trained intake team member will review your answers and reach out privately to discuss next steps. If your situation may qualify, they will connect you with a law firm experienced in rideshare-related legal cases.
