Delaware County Taxi Accident Attorney

BACK TO ARTICLES

Our Delaware County taxi accident lawyers represent passengers and motorists injured in collisions involving taxis or rideshare vehicles.

Taxi accidents can happen in an instant — and the aftermath can leave victims facing serious injuries, medical bills, and lost wages. Whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, or another driver involved in a taxi crash, you have legal rights and options under Pennsylvania law.

At Wilk Law Firm, our Delaware County taxi accident attorneys have years of experience helping victims navigate complex commercial vehicle claims. We fight aggressively to hold negligent taxi drivers and companies accountable while ensuring you receive the full and fair compensation you deserve.

Who Can Be Held Liable in a Taxi Accident?

Taxi accidents often involve multiple responsible parties, making legal claims more complex than standard car crashes. Depending on the circumstances, liability may fall on:

  • The taxi driver, for reckless, distracted, or impaired driving
  • The taxi company, for failing to maintain vehicles or hire qualified drivers
  • Third-party motorists, if they contributed to the collision
  • The vehicle manufacturer, in cases involving defective components

Our attorneys conduct a full investigation to determine fault and pursue every possible source of compensation.

Common Causes of Taxi Accidents in Delaware County

Taxi drivers spend long hours on the road, often under pressure to meet tight schedules or maximize fares. Unfortunately, this pressure can lead to dangerous driving behaviors. Common causes of taxi accidents include:

  • Speeding and reckless driving
  • Distracted driving (texting, GPS use, passenger interaction)
  • Driver fatigue or drowsy driving
  • Running red lights or failing to yield
  • Unsafe turns or lane changes
  • Poor vehicle maintenance

No matter the cause, our firm fights to hold negligent parties accountable and help victims rebuild their lives.

Injuries Commonly Sustained in Taxi Crashes

Taxi collisions can cause devastating injuries that impact your health, work, and daily life. Victims may suffer from:

  • Whiplash and neck injuries
  • Head and brain trauma (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Internal bleeding or organ damage
  • Severe lacerations and soft tissue injuries

At Wilk Law Firm, we ensure every injury is fully documented and supported by medical evidence to strengthen your case.

Compensation Available to Taxi Accident Victims

Victims of taxi accidents in Delaware County may be eligible for compensation that covers:

  • Medical expenses and hospital bills
  • Rehabilitation and long-term care
  • Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Property damage
  • Wrongful death benefits (for surviving family members)

We negotiate aggressively with insurance companies and will not settle for less than what you deserve.

What to Do After a Taxi Accident in Delaware County

If you’ve been injured in a taxi crash, taking the right steps can make a major difference in your recovery and your legal claim:

  1. Seek medical attention immediately.
  2. Call law enforcement and obtain a police report.
  3. Collect evidence, including photos, witness information, and the taxi’s license details.
