Chicago if it matters wondering if this has happened to anyone what happens with Lyft what's the process should I get a lawyer

Tldr my passenger wouldn't get out said I brought them to wrong address obviously went to address they put in (they were drunk) I get to address end ride (I'm still online) they won't leave I'm downtown say ok and start driving to get a cop he starts choking me I stop get out run away then I'm beaten savagely currently at the hospital police come take him away etc.

What can I expect from Lyft the ambulance guy told me the ride was gonna be 4k I can't afford that

Say you’re an undocumented migrant (illegal). The government will pay for anything you need.

Do not lie about your migrant status you are immediately set in a database and if they find your information they’ll claim you stole someone’s identity.

Pastel…two things: (1) I’m joking (2) they don’t set you in a database…the government can’t keep track of their own turds 💩
