Amazon Accident Lawyer: Get the Compensation You Deserve!

Were you hurt in a crash with an Amazon truck? Did a vehicle from Amazon destroy your property? Did one hurt someone that you love? If you or a loved one were injured in an accident involving Amazon, you very well may be eligible for compensation. Amazon accident lawyer Big Ben has plenty of experience taking on Amazon. He can help you through the process, from A to Z, so that you can receive all of the compensation you deserve for everything that you’ve been through. 

Amazon is, in so many ways, the biggest company in the country. It’s certainly the one that just about everyone has interacted with, in one way or another. The fleet of Amazon delivery vehicles can be found in practically every corner of the United States. All of that convenience, however, comes at a price. With more vehicles on the road, this can lead to more accidents. That’s where an experienced lawyer can step up for you. 

Taking on Amazon, as you might imagine it would be to deal with one of the world’s largest corporations, is the very definition of a challenge. Big Ben can do that for you and so much more. 

What Compensation Can I Receive in an Amazon Accident Case? 

Here in the state of California, you could be eligible for two separate kinds of compensation after an Amazon 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/etc.  

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. Between the treatment, medications, doctor's visits, rehab, and so forth, that leads to some steep medical bills. Economic compensation can cover that. 

Additionally, after your accident, you’re likely to have missed work. And, if you’re like so many, you’ll miss out on wages, too. Economic compensation can cover those lost wages, too. You can even receive compensation for wages that you lost if you’re unable to perform your job in the same way you were before the accident, too. 

Non-economic damages, on the other hand, cover that which is less tangible, that doesn’t have a fixed economic amount. After an Amazon accident, you may have experienced plenty of pain, suffering, you may lose some enjoyment of life, and similar struggles - you can receive compensation for all of that and more, too. 

When you meet with Big Ben for a free case evaluation, he’ll provide a thorough, detailed assessment about what your claim is worth. Then, from there, he’ll tell you exactly what he will do to make that assessment become a reality. 

Can I Sue Amazon for My Accident? 

Unfortunately, it’s very, very difficult to sue Amazon directly for your accident. To be clear: Amazon does everything in their power to make it difficult to sue them.  Chief among their many tactics: they make sure to classify their drivers as “independent contractors.” So, hard as this may be to believe, that way, under the law, their drivers aren’t classified as Amazon employees, but rather, independent contractors. 

Thus, it’s entirely possible that the person who hit you with an Amazon truck, who is wearing a uniform that says “Amazon” on it, will not be an employee of Amazon. As such, it’s practically impossible to sue Amazon directly. That does not, however, mean under any circumstances, that you cannot sue someone for your accident. Far from it. There are multiple parties that may be liable. 

Who Can I Sue?

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 whichever governmental agency is responsible for maintaining the roads didn't do their job. And, as a result of that, it led to unsafe road conditions that were responsible for your accident. That’s another possibility - as you can see from this, there are many, many others. 

Remember: an entity 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. Big Ben 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. 

Moreover, you may even be partially liable for your Amazon accident. If that’s the case, that doesn't mean, of course, that 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. 

An example: if you’re found to be 15% liable for your Amazon accident, you can still recover 85% of the compensation you would have received. Big Ben can help. 

How Does Big Ben Prove Liability in an Amazon 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, as drivers on the road, do have this duty of care. They were on the road, they were operating a truck - and as such, they had a duty of care to do so safely. 

Next, Big Ben has to prove that this duty of care was violated, which led to the accident. So, if the driver/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, Big Ben 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 Accident Lawyer? 

If you’re injured in an accident involving Amazon, then, yes, you’re most likely going to need a lawyer with Amazon 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. 

Always remember: when someone from Amazon’s insurance company contacts you, they aren’t doing so with your best interests in mind. No, 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. 

Why? Well, it’s because Amazon’s attorneys, insurance company, and others have a pretty good idea of what your claim is worth. Drawing upon their years of experience, they know what they should pay out for your claim. And, as a result of that, they also know that if they get you to take less than that, that they will come out ahead. 

Having an experienced attorney by your side, however, 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. Indeed, you won’t have to worry about them trying to get you to give a statement that could trip up your case. Moreover, you won’t have to be concerned about them trying to make you take less money than your claim is worth. 

Instead, Big Ben will negotiate hard with the insurance company. He’ll do so, pushing them to the limit so that you receive what you should, instead of settling for whatever pittance they wanted you to accept. 

Experience. Resources. Negotiation skills. Resolute nature. Those are just some of the reasons to let a pro handle your Amazon accident case. 

How Long Will My Case Take and Do I Need to Go to Trial? 

A strong, strong majority of these cases do not go to trial. Almost none of them do. Most of them end with a settlement. Here, too, is another reason to reach out to Big Ben and the team. The pros at the firm know how to negotiate in such a way that they don’t stop until you get what you should. 

Additionally, during this process, they’ll keep you in the loop with open communication. That way, you always know how your case is going. You’re always aware of each offer, maneuver, to the extent that you want to be, etc. Through all of this, you can be as informed as possible. With that, you can make the right decision for your needs.
