Transcript

Introduction: Assault during Uber or Lyft ride

Were you sexually assaulted during an Uber or Lyft ride? I’m attorney Tracy Paulsen with Rightful Legal, and I’m a national rideshare sexual assault lawyer. I want to give you the clear answers survivors often cannot find.

Meet attorney Tracy Paulsen

I’m attorney Tracy Paulsen with Rightful Legal, and I help survivors of rideshare sexual assault nationwide.

It is NOT your fault

What happened to you was not your fault. You are not to blame, and you are not alone.

Why many survivors don’t report

Across the United States, thousands of riders have reported sexual assaults by Uber and Lyft drivers. Many more never report because they felt scared, ashamed, or afraid they wouldn’t be believed.

Your rights still exist

None of this takes away your right to seek justice.

Uber sexual assault multidistrict litigation

Survivors nationwide are filing Uber sexual assault lawsuits through a coordinated federal action called the Uber Sexual Assault Multidistrict Litigation. This process uncovers what Uber knew about dangerous drivers and how it handled assault complaints.

You may qualify even if you never reported

You may qualify even if you never reported the assault, even if you were intoxicated, if you froze, or even if years have passed. A civil claim may provide compensation for what you endured — including medical care, therapy, lost income, emotional harm, and in some cases, punitive damages.

Types of compensation survivors can seek

Survivors may seek compensation for medical treatment, therapy, lost wages, emotional distress, and punitive damages in certain cases.

Private, confidential legal support

Every consultation at Rightful Legal is private, trauma-informed, and completely confidential. You will never be pressured or judged.

Contact information for help

If you were assaulted by an Uber driver, you can call or text me directly at 617-821-5856. You can also visit rightfullegal.com to schedule a free case review.

Final message: You deserve justice

You deserve answers. You deserve accountability. And you deserve justice to be served. Please like or share this video. Thank you so much.
