California has reset the ground rules for what happens when a rideshare trip ends in serious injury. New legislation reshapes medical lien treatment and the liability balance among platforms, drivers, and the people they injure. Practitioners who handle these claims need to understand the framework before it starts driving outcomes. This program breaks down what changed, why it changed, and how it affects the valuation and resolution of Uber and Lyft injury cases going forward. Guiding the discussion is Doris Cheng of Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger, who traces the layered, period-based insurance structure that makes these claims uniquely complex, examines the recurring and decisive question of platform liability, and works through the practical implications of the latest reforms for case strategy. Attendees will leave with a current, working command of the law governing rideshare injury claims and the confidence to apply it.
