Legal Trend: Ride Share Drivers Employees or Independent Contractors

Lyft has been fighting a law suit over whether its drivers are employees or indpendent contractors. This determination is crucial to determine how much liability Lyft may have if something bad happens or in reimbursing its drivers for  expenses.
