Uber Sexual Assault Lawyer

Uber’s Safety Promises Failed You. We Won’t.

At Lucas Law Firm, an experienced Uber sexual assault lawyer will investigate how this happened, whether Uber could have prevented it and how to hold every responsible party fully accountable. From our Kansas City office, we represent survivors nationwide in complex, highstakes Uber sexual assault cases.

The Pattern Behind Uber Sexual Assaults

Thousands of survivors have come forward with reports of Uber driver sexual assault, ranging from harassment and groping to rape. In many cases, Uber failed to:

• Properly screen or background-check drivers
• Investigate prior complaints or suspicious behavior
• Deactivate known offenders
• Provide meaningful safeguards for vulnerable riders
• Respond transparently when survivors reported assaults

Some assaults occur during rides. Others happen after drop-off. In some instances, the driver is unaware of what occurred—but the platform still bears legal responsibility. Every case is different. Our job is to uncover the facts and build a path to justice.

How an Uber Sexual Assault Lawyer Can Help

• Understand their legal rights and options

Common Uber Sexual Assault Lawsuits

We represent survivors in all types of Uber sexual assault lawsuits, including:

• Sexual harassment or coercion during a ride
• Inappropriate touching or groping
• Sexual assault or rape by an Uber driver
• Assault by someone using another person’s Uber driver account
• Cases where Uber failed to act on red flags or prior complaints

Each of these cases demands more than compassion. They require strategic legal action, technical investigation and the courage to go up against a billion-dollar company.

Can Uber Be Held Liable?

Yes—though Uber tries to limit liability by classifying drivers as independent contractors. This makes litigation complex, but far from impossible.

Our firm investigates:

• What Uber knew (or should have known) about the driver’s background
• Whether prior complaints or red flags were ignored
• What safety protocols were lacking or not followed
• Whether Uber’s policies contributed to the assault or failed to prevent it

We also evaluate third-party liability, including background check vendors or parties responsible for property security.

Survivors of Uber sexual assault may be entitled to compensation for:

• Emergency and long-term medical care
• Mental health support and trauma therapy
• Lost income or career impact
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
