Rideshare accident attorneys in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Forty-six years at the Pennsylvania bar — the longest on this page, by five days over Donald Soloff. His firm's rideshare page is the most detailed here on where the $1 million actually comes from — and the most visibly unmaintained.

Admitted five days after Jeffrey Reiff — the two longest careers on this page opened within a week of each other in October 1979. His firm's Lyft page is among the thinnest in the batch and carries a statewide crash count with nothing behind it.

One of only two lawyers here whose published phone number matches the one on his bar record. His firm's rideshare page, by contrast, begins a list of who the $1 million covers and stops after a single line.

His firm's page names a university and a year for its headline claim — a 2024 University of Illinois Chicago study on how many rideshare drivers have crashed while working. Naming the researcher puts it in a small minority here. The figures beside it are attributed only to "recent safety transparency reports."

His published practice is cranes, aerial lifts, guardrails and workplace falls — not motor vehicles. The rideshare page behind this listing is his firm's, names nobody, and ends its results section with a colon followed by nothing.

This is the page this site exists to catch. It publishes five precise Philadelphia crash counts for 2023 — including 842 rideshare crashes and 202 passenger-door injuries — and names no source for any of them. We fetched it and confirmed every figure is on the page.

His firm's page is the only one of fifteen to describe Pennsylvania as a "choice no-fault" state — the arrangement that actually governs whether a Philadelphia rider can sue at all. Fourteen other pages here explain rideshare tiers in detail and skip it.

His firm's page halves a coverage figure. For the period when a driver is logged in but has not accepted a ride, it gives bodily injury limits of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. Every other page in this batch gives $50,000 and $100,000.

The register holds him at a different firm from the one whose site carries his biography — Wapner Newman on the record, The Cochran Firm on the page — at the same address and the same suite. His listing is one of three here where the two disagree.

The cleanest page in the batch. We read fifteen and found something wrong with eleven. His firm's gives the three coverage periods, states no figure it cannot support, finishes every list it starts, and names no lawyer it has not introduced.

The register holds him at Messa & Associates; his biography is published by the Wieand Law Firm — a different firm at a different address. His own page carries an advertising disclaimer of a kind we have not seen anywhere else on this site.

His firm's page says he has spent "over 25 years fighting in the courtrooms of Pennsylvania." The Disciplinary Board says he was admitted on 18 October 2010 — fifteen years. It is the largest gap between a claimed career and a register we have found on this site.

Her firm's page sets out Pennsylvania's 2016 rideshare statute in more detail than any other page on this site — vehicle age caps, mileage limits, background-check intervals, felony bars. And it puts the passenger-carrying coverage at $500,000 where every other page here says $1 million.

The clearest example of search-engine copy on this site. Mid-sentence, his firm's page reaches for phrases like uber accident attorney in Delco and rideshare lawyer in South Philadelphia — sometimes leaving the sentence ungrammatical. His bar record carries a New Jersey area code.

Nine years at the bar — the newest listing on this page — and one of only two here whose published number matches his bar record. His firm's site returns 403 Forbidden to us, so nothing on it is checked here; only the Disciplinary Board record is.
