When You Need a Lawyer for an Amazon Traffic Accident Case
If you come away from an accident caused by a careless Amazon employee with serious injuries, it’s a good indicator that you could earn much more in an injury claim with the help of Maison Law. The higher our medical bills go, the more Amazon and its insurers will fight you on the blame and how much you should earn in compensation. Amazon also has teams of lawyers ready to pick apart your evidence.
A skilled accident lawyer is the best way to fight back. Maison Law attorneys are ready to investigate Amazon’s negligence and provide evidence of the delivery driver’s mistake. Once the blame is firmly on the delivery driver, we negotiate to get the most from Amazon as possible for you.
You can always take on Amazon yourself, but with serious injuries, your outcome is usually much better with the help of a lawyer.

What You Can Ask for From Amazon After an Accident
After you and your lawyer have built a strong case, you’ll be ready to file a claim. The claim should come with a full account of all of our bills and hardships caused by the accident.
Everything should be on this list, because anything left off is something the insurer can ignore and skip compensating.
Your lawyer would make sure your list is complete and demand these and other benefits for you:
- The totals on your medical bills and the cost of care expected in the future.
- All costs anticipated if you suffer a permanent physical disability. Lifelong support from an insurance provider.
- Support for the pain you will experience and may continue to experience.
- Support for your emotional distress, such as depression and anxiety, while you manage a difficult and painful recovery. The loss of enjoyment of your life.
- Support to help you afford care for your PTSD symptoms left over from the moment of impact with a van.
- Loss of enjoyment of life. You may not be able to participate in family activities or take part in your favorite hobbies.
- Lost wages and benefits while you are unable to work.
- Money for vehicle repairs or a new vehicle.
Determining Who Is Liable After an Amazon-Involved Car Accident
Amazon drivers and independent contractors working for Amazon whip in and out of Merced neighborhoods all day long. Those heavy blue vans can be seen along routes like Childs Avenue and the many communities branching off of the street.
Their jobs take long hours and a lot of concentration on the roads, but their duties can distract them. They can take their eyes off the lanes and miss stop signs or red lights. Delivery drivers can also get in a hurry and go too fast to safely avoid vehicles and pedestrians.
AMAZON EMPLOYEES. Amazon covers its full-time employees with a $1,000,000 policy. It’s a great resource for victims, but remember that Amazon can afford corporate lawyers who will be disputing your right to that money.
AMAZON DELIVERY PARTNERS AND FLEX DRIVERS. Amazon also uses drivers who work for local delivery providers or for themselves. These drivers are considered independent contractors. They may have their own personal accident coverage or be covered by third-party employers. Amazon will kick in some insurance money in some cases when a contract driver’s insurance doesn’t provide enough support for victims.
One thing’s for sure. Amazon and its partners won’t make figuring out who’s responsible easy in most cases. An experienced lawyer can help you work out who is responsible, and at times can file claims with multiple insurers to hopefully earn you more.
