Uber has become one of the most widely used rideshare services across Illinois, offering convenience and flexible transportation options. However, disturbing incidents of sexual assault by Uber drivers have raised serious questions about passenger safety. If you or someone you know was sexually assaulted during an Uber ride in IL, you may be entitled to seek justice through a civil lawsuit.
Our experienced attorneys represent survivors of Uber-related sexual abuse throughout Illinois. We help clients hold both the drivers and, when applicable, Uber itself accountable for their roles in enabling harm.

Uber may be held liable for:
