When the need to rush becomes a priority over safety, it can result in devastating consequences. Delivery trucks carry heavy cargo and are many times larger than the traditional vehicle. This leads to tragic collisions and serious injuries when aa wreck does occur. Whether you were a pedestrian or another driver, if you’ve been injured as a result of a collision with a delivery truck, our team can help. We understand the complexities when it comes to filing claims against drivers employed by major delivery companies such as UPS, FedEx, or Amazon and will ensure you get the compensation you deserve for your damages and losses1.

Holding Delivery Truck Companies Liable
Cases against delivery truck drivers and companies can become complex very quickly. This is because you must first determine whether the driver or the employer is liable. Companies like UPS or FedEx are subject to government regulations that require delivery services to adhere to strict safety protocols. Companies are expected to have:
- Mandatory recording of drivers during delivery hours.
- Routine inspection and maintenance of delivery fleet.
- Prompt repairs for trucks.
- Drug and alcohol education programs for drivers.
- Driving training and competency requirements.
Our team works to uncover whether your accident may have been caused by negligence in any of these areas. In some cases, we discover that the company has negligent hiring practices, insufficient training or inadequate maintenance. In other circumstances, we find that the driver is directly at fault for the accident. We expect these parties to be accountable for their actions, and in cases where we find them neglecting these responsibilities, we fight to hold them accountable.
