Yorkville Amazon Delivery Accident Attorneys

Aggressive Amazon Delivery Accident Lawyer Representing Victims in Yorkville, IL

The world is moving toward online shopping, with Amazon being the second-largest global retailer. The global giant ships around 1.6 million packages daily in the U.S., which breaks down to more than 1,000 every minute. An estimated 60 percent of Amazon Prime orders are delivered same-day or next-day, providing convenience to consumers. Although Amazon's growing fleet includes tens of thousands of branded tractor-trailer trucks and delivery vans, the company often utilizes third-party contractors to keep up with last-mile delivery demands. This can lead to complications when people are injured in accidents with Amazon trucks.

Like any other driver, workers delivering Amazon packages can cause accidents that injure others. If you are injured in an Amazon delivery vehicle crash, you may not know how to navigate the potential complexities, and you may struggle to receive the settlement you deserve. At Kendall County Injury Lawyers, a Division of Kanoski Bresney, we know how to overcome these challenges, and we will work with you to achieve a successful resolution to your case. Call us now to discuss your situation.

Amazon Employees or Contractors in Montgomery Delivery Driver Accidents

If the driver who injured you was an Amazon employee driving an Amazon-owned van, both Amazon and the driver may be liable for your damages. In personal injury cases, damages define types of losses and the money you might receive to reimburse or compensate you for those losses.

If the driver is an independent contractor or works for a third party, you may have trouble holding Amazon accountable for the injuries you have suffered in a collision. When a leasing company or contractor owns the truck that hit you, there are additional layers of complications as you identify the liable parties and take steps to recover compensation.

Even without confusing issues related to worker status and vehicle ownership, commercial vehicle accidents are already complicated, because several parties may potentially be held liable for the injuries suffered in the crash. These parties may include:

• Drivers
• Employers
• Delivery truck owner or leasing company
• Truck maintenance companies
• Cargo loaders
• Parts manufacturers

If a malfunctioning stop light or broken pavement contributed to causing your Amazon accident, the government agency responsible for road maintenance may also share some fault. You have to understand why your collision happened to determine who is responsible; evidence must also be provided to prove liability. Otherwise, you may be unable to receive a settlement that will address the damages you have suffered.

Do you have the resources, time, and knowledge to investigate your Amazon accident thoroughly? Most people do not, but the legal team at Kendall County Injury Lawyers, a Division of Kanoski Bresney does. We understand where to look for the evidence needed and how to establish liability, even in complex cases. We can make sure your case is prepared correctly, and we will advocate for your interests to help ensure that you will be properly compensated.

Damages in Northern Illinois Amazon Delivery Accidents

The physical injuries you sustained in your Amazon collision likely resulted in financial losses due to expenses for your medical treatment, lost wages, and vehicle repair or replacement. You may also experience intangible losses that affect your quality of life, such as pain and suffering, disfigurement, disability, inconvenience, and damage to your personal relationships.

If you are partially to blame for your Illinois accident, you may still be eligible for compensation if your degree of fault is less than 51 percent. However, your settlement amount will be reduced proportionally. For instance, if you are 20 percent at fault, you cannot collect more than 80 percent of your total damages.

There is no such thing as an average settlement amount. Your losses are unique to your case, and your settlement amount should reflect your actual losses. Our attorneys will review your losses and work diligently to help you get the highest possible amount.
