Uber Sexual Assault Attorney
Representing Survivors Across Florida, Including Tampa
Sexual assault during an Uber ride is a devastating violation of trust. Passengers rely on rideshare companies to provide safe transportation, yet investigations and reporting have raised serious concerns about whether adequate safeguards are consistently in place.
BTG represents survivors of sexual assault and serious misconduct in civil cases involving Uber and other rideshare platforms. Our role is to help survivors understand their legal options, pursue accountability, and seek justice through the civil legal system.
Understanding Uber Sexual Assault Cases
Sexual assault cases involving rideshare services often raise complex legal questions. These cases are not solely about the actions of an individual driver — they may also involve whether Uber took reasonable steps to protect passengers through proper screening, safety policies, and response procedures.
Civil claims may involve issues such as:
- Negligent hiring or inadequate background checks
- Failure to monitor or supervise drivers
- Inadequate response to prior complaints or warning signs
- Failure to implement reasonable passenger safety measures
Civil cases are separate from criminal proceedings. While criminal cases focus on guilt and punishment, civil cases evaluate responsibility and accountability under the law.
How BTG Approaches Uber Sexual Assault Cases
At BTG, we approach these cases with care, discretion, and a survivor-focused mindset. Our goal is to help clients understand whether Uber or other parties may be held civilly responsible and to guide them through the legal process at their own pace.
Our representation includes:
- Evaluating whether Uber’s safety systems failed
- Analyzing driver screening and background check practices
- Investigating prior complaints or warning signs
- Pursuing accountability through civil litigation when appropriate
We understand the sensitive nature of these cases and prioritize privacy, respect, and clear communication throughout the process.
