They’re Worried About Their App, We’re Worried About You
Uber and Lyft might not audit your sexual assault complaint for years. Filing a civil claim protects yourself and others.
Rideshare sexual assault is all too common. Court documents revealed that Uber received a report of sexual assault almost every eight minutes between 2017 and 2022 (they haven’t released data for more recent years). Lyft received 4,158 reports of sexual assault between 2017 and 2019. To the rideshare companies, your sexual assault is one of many complaints. To us, your story is important, it is valuable, and it will be heard.
While reporting the assault to the authorities and to Uber or Lyft are important steps, filing a civil complaint will get you the resources you need to recover. It can also be an incentive for rideshare companies to make their app safer for everyone. If you or a loved one has experienced a sexual assault while using Uber or Lyft, you are not alone, nor are you one among thousands. Our rideshare sexual assault lawyers will walk with you on the road to recovery, every step of the way.

Rideshare Sexual Assault FAQs
1. What Is Sexual Assault?
According to the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), sexual assault is any nonconsensual sexual act, including when the victim doesn’t have the capacity to consent (e.g. when they are intoxicated or asleep).
According to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN) sexual assault is any sexual behavior that happens without “explicit consent” of the victim.
Examples include:
- Attempted rape
- Rape, including date rape and elder rape
- Fondling or unwanted sexual touching
- Unwanted kissing, rubbing or groping
- Forcing a victim to perform sexual acts like oral sex or penetration
- Female genital mutilation
- Human trafficking
2. What Is Consent?
According to RAINN, consent is the mutual, clearly expressed agreement to engage in sexual activity. The “yes” must be given without coercion, force, or hesitancy, and it can be withdrawn at any time.
3. When Should I Hire a Rideshare Sexual Assault Lawyer?
If you experienced any sexual activity without your consent while a passenger in a ridershare vehicle, it’s important to speak with a lawyer as soon as you feel ready. Even if you initially said “yes” but later withdrew consent, or if you froze or didn’t fight back, it is still sexual assault.
Our Lyft and Uber sexual assault lawyers are here to listen to your story, protect your rights, and connect you with resources to help you heal. We will never pressure you into taking legal action before you’re ready. A free, confidential consultation is the first step toward understanding your options and moving forward.
