Amazon Truck Accidents

Amazon Truck and Van Accident Lawyer

Amazon delivery vehicles, including trucks and vans, are a pervasive element of modern life in American cities and roadways. These vehicles are ubiquitous due to the immense popularity of Amazon and its services. While the majority of these vehicles operate daily without issue, there are all too many serious exceptions. The sheer scale of Amazon’s operation all but ensures that their delivery vehicles will have daily accidents.

Amazon delivery vehicle accidents are an unfortunate reality, and their ramifications can be devastating for those involved.

Can You Sue Amazon for a Delivery Vehicle Accident?

Yes, you are entitled to sue Amazon after being the victim of a delivery vehicle accident. However, due to various factors, some Amazon delivery drivers are not technically employees of the company. Rather these drivers are considered independent contractors. This has significant legal ramifications because often, different insurance obligations and legal liabilities will be applied to the case. In some instances, you may need to sue the driver as an individual and not Amazon. This will depend upon the nature of the driver’s employment as well as other factors in your case.

The innate complexity of these matters and the enormity of Amazon as a corporation makes suing in these matters difficult to pursue effectively. That is why it is highly recommended to consult experienced legal counsel to better comprehend the nuances of your case. Our attorneys are not only experienced but highly skilled in these matters and will happily consult you on the merits of your case.

Who Can Be Sued After an Amazon Truck or Van Accident?

Cases in which an Amazon delivery vehicle has caused an accident tend to be multifaceted. This is because many parties can be held responsible for the pain and suffering which you have experienced. Often, the cause of the accident will illuminate who is legally liable for your compensation. Additionally, Amazon subcontracts third-party companies to fulfill some of their deliveries. These companies can also be at fault in an accident and be held liable for your pain and suffering. After Amazon, these are the companies that tend to have the most resources available to them.

• The Delivery Vehicle Driver: If the driver of the delivery vehicle was at fault in some way, they can potentially be held liable for injuries and economic damages which were the result of the accident.
• Amazon: If they are found to have had some fault in the case they too can be sued. This could include Amazon not screening their drivers effectively or not conducting appropriate maintenance on their vehicles.
• Third-Party Company: If a third-party company was being subcontracted by Amazon to fulfill their delivery and they were responsible in some way for the accident, then they too can be held liable for damages.
• Negligent Drivers: If another driver or drivers on the road were the cause of your accident or contributed toward the cause of your accident then they too can be sued.
• Vehicle and Part Manufacturers: If it is discovered that a faulty part or faulty vehicle was liable for your accident, the manufacturers of that part or vehicle could also be legally responsible for your accident.
• The Government: In some cases, poorly maintained roads may be the cause of an accident. In a case such as this, the government may be held liable for damages.

Many individuals and companies can be involved in a single Amazon truck or van accident. This can increase the complexity of your case significantly. That is why you should contact us today at (713) 973-8888 for your free case review.
