Delivery truck drivers often face tremendous pressure to transport cargo for large companies usually at unreasonable schedules. Many of these trucks travel across states and for long hours on a single trip. Subjected to time constraints, many delivery truck drivers take unnecessary risks on the road such as speeding and driving non-stop.
These and other factors often lead to devastating truck accidents that cause severe or fatal injuries to pedestrians, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and occupants of other vehicles.
After a delivery truck accident, your immediate goal is to receive appropriate medical treatment and care for your injuries, pay all of your medical bills, and recover wages that you lost due to your accident. Going after the insurance company of the party at fault can be a daunting task. Insurance adjusters are known to deny claims or pay out minimum amounts that are not sufficient to cover all of an injured party’s damages.
Your best option is to work with an experienced delivery truck accident attorney who can stand up for your rights and seek the maximum value of compensation that you deserve.
For more than four decades, the Encino delivery truck accident attorneys of Binder Law Group, PLC have represented people across the San Gabriel Valley and Southern California, bringing favorable outcomes for clients.
Companies in the delivery industry such as UPS and FedEx are required to follow federal regulations regarding driver safety and other issues. Our attorneys will examine all the details of your accident in order to determine whether the delivery truck driver complied with specific protocols and observed proper safety measures.
Circumstances such as a delivery truck backing up in the middle of the street instead of going around the block can lead to serious injuries for other motorists or pedestrians along the path of the truck.
Our firm will also work with you and your medical providers in order to establish the extent and severity of your injuries. In cases where the other party is unwilling to enter into a settlement on terms that are favorable to our clients, our attorneys are prepared to go to trial and fight for your right to receive fair compensation.
