Here in the state of California, you could be eligible for two separate kinds of compensation after an Amazon truck accident. You could be eligible for economic compensation as well as non-economic compensation. Don’t let the name “non-economic compensation” fool you: this will also be money or other valuable consideration.
Economic compensation tends to be for damages you suffered as a result of the accident that have a fixed monetary amount. For example, after being struck by an Amazon vehicle, you very well may have suffered any number of injuries that require medical treatment. Our legal team can help you recover an Amazon accident settlement amount to cover these costs.
Economic damages:
- Medical treatment, medications, and doctor's visits.
- Rehabilitation costs.
- Lost wages from missed work.
- Future lost income if you are unable to perform your job.
Non-economic damages, on the other hand, cover that which is less tangible and doesn’t have a fixed economic amount. After an Amazon truck accident, you may have experienced plenty of pain, suffering, or a loss of enjoyment of life. You can receive compensation for all of that and more. When you meet with our Amazon Truck Accident lawyer for a free case evaluation, he will provide a thorough, detailed assessment about what your claim is worth. Then, from there, he’ll tell you exactly what our legal team will do to make that assessment become a reality.
Can I Sue Amazon for My Accident?
Big Ben and his team of attorneys can find out who is directly liable for your Amazon accident. Then, Big Ben and the team can bring the strongest possible case against them. It could be that the driver is liable, yes. It could also be that other drivers are liable, too. Perhaps someone ran a stop light and then hit the Amazon truck, smashing that vehicle into you. Maybe a governmental agency responsible for maintaining the roads didn't do their job, leading to unsafe road conditions. That’s another possibility—as you can see from this, there are many others. The ability to sue Amazon for a car accident depends on the specific circumstances.
Identifying multiple parties in a lawsuit
Remember: a party doesn't have to be entirely liable for your accident to be sued for compensation. Multiple parties could be partially liable. So, the driver could be liable, other drivers could be liable, and so forth. Our attorney team will find out who all is liable and then bring a case against all of them. That way, you have the best chance of receiving everything that you should.
Understanding comparative negligence in California
Moreover, you may even be partially liable for your Amazon accident. If that’s the case, that doesn't mean you don’t have a case. Indeed, you may very well have a strong one. California has what are called “comparative negligence” laws. So, even if you are at least a little responsible for your accident, you could receive a percentage of the compensation you would have received if you weren’t at all liable.
For example, if you’re found to be 15% liable for your Amazon delivery van accident, you can still recover 85% of the compensation you would have received. Big Ben's lawyer can help.
How Does Big Ben Prove Liability in an Amazon Truck Accident Case?
As mentioned, Big Ben can find out who’s liable for your accident. First, when you sign with Big Ben, he’ll conduct an investigation into every aspect of your case. Big Ben has an entire team of experienced investigators in his arsenal. They’ll find out exactly what happened and then use all of it for your case.
In California, to be liable for an accident, a party must have had a “duty of care” to you. Amazon drivers, whether working for a DSP or as an Amazon Flex driver, do have this duty of care.
Proving a violation of duty and Causation
Next, Big Ben has to prove that this duty of care was violated, which led to the accident. So, if the driver or another party conducted a negligent, reckless act, which directly led to the accident, then that's a clear violation of the duty of care. From there, our legal team has to show that this accident caused your injuries.
The injuries you have suffered must also be shown to be something that can be made whole through recovering damages. This may sound like quite a lot. However, Big Ben has done this for clients for many years.
Do I Need an Amazon Truck Accident Lawyer?
If you’re injured in an accident involving Amazon, then, yes, you’re most likely going to need a lawyer with Amazon truck accident experience. If you’re still on the fence, peruse the last section just above this one. Is that something you’re willing to take on yourself? Wouldn't you rather a professional, someone who’s done this multiple times before, do the same for you?
Another daunting aspect of Amazon cases: Amazon’s insurance company. See, after you’ve been hurt in an accident, it’s entirely possible (even likely) that these insurance adjusters are going to reach out to you. They may try to get you to give a statement or even provide you with some money. You don’t want anything to do with either.
Fighting Amazon’s insurance company tactics
Always remember: when someone from Amazon’s insurance company contacts you, they aren’t doing so with your best interests in mind. They’re talking to you to advance Amazon’s best interests. And, if you were hurt in an accident, it’s in Amazon's best interests to get you to settle as quickly as possible. This is because Amazon’s attorneys, insurance company, and others know what your claim is truly worth. They also know that if they get you to take less than that, they will come out ahead.
Having an experienced attorney by your side can keep all of that from happening. Big Ben can put a stop to all of that fast. When you sign with Big Ben, you won't have to talk to the insurance company anymore. Instead, Big Ben will negotiate hard with the insurance company, pushing them to the limit so that you receive what you should.
