When You Need a Lawyer for Your Truck Accident Case
The seriousness of your injury prognosis will usually determine if a lawyer can help your case or not. If you have a serious injury, insurance companies will be fighting you harder on settlement amounts and may even seek ways to turn the blame for an accident on you.
Ninja Delivery can also afford teams of lawyers to pick apart your case and seriously reduce the support you receive. A skilled attorney on your team can be a powerful protection against these tactics. Your California Ninja Delivery Accident Lawyer also investigates the accident and collects all evidence to make sure your case can’t be questioned.
A lawyer can often help improve the outcome of a claim when these types of expensive injuries and others are involved.
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs), including serious concussions
- Neck injuries, including serious cases of whiplash
- Back injuries, including vertebral injuries
- Hip, knee, and shoulder joint injuries
- Broken Bones
- Muscle, ligament, tendon strains and tears
- Deep cuts and puncture wounds
- Facial cuts, broken noses, and teeth lost
- Permanent physical disabilities
- Injuries suffered by a family member
You can always handle your claim yourself, and if your accident only involves very minor injuries or just vehicle damage, you may be fine filing your own claim. However, a lawyer can often win you more for your injuries, especially when taking on a large company and its lawyers.

Earning You Support After Getting Hit by a Delivery Vehicle
Victims of car accidents may be in their vehicles when a delivery driver, looking at the next order on a phone, rams them from behind. A victim may be on a motorcycle when a Ninja delivery worker in a rush makes a left turn in front of the rider.
A victim may be a pedestrian in a crosswalk when an overworked delivery employee fails to notice them crossing. It may be a cyclist in a bike lane that gets hit by a driver who switches lanes without checking blind spots.
These and other mistakes can cause devastating accidents and life-threatening injuries. Victims can come away with catastrophic injuries, defined as those serious consequences that change a victim’s life permanently.
The support a lawyer demands on behalf of victims becomes much more important. All hardships must be listed in an insurance claim, or they may not be compensated.
Here are a few of the things that a skilled attorney would make sure were factored into a settlement check:
- The totals on the victim’s doctor bills and the cost of care expected in the future.
- All costs are anticipated when victims must learn to live with a permanent physical disability. Lifelong support from an insurance provider.
- Support for the victim’s emotional distress, such as depression and anxiety, while they manage a difficult and painful recovery. The loss of enjoyment as they must give up hobbies and sit out family activities.
- Support to help afford care for PTSD symptoms that may haunt victims and constantly cause them to flash back to the moment of impact with a vehicle.
- Support for the pain victims endure and may continue to experience.
- Lost wages and benefits while victims are unable to work.
- Money for vehicle repairs or a new vehicle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Ninja Delivery drivers carry insurance?
Ninja Delivery requires those who use its platform to provide their own vehicles and have their own auto insurance. The delivery workers who use the Ninja app are considered independent contractors. So Ninja tries to keep all the responsibility on its drivers. If you are hurt in an accident, you would first file a claim with the delivery driver’s insurer. There are two potential problems. The driver likely has the bare minimum in coverage, and support can run out before you can pay off all of your medical bills. The driver’s insurer may also flat-out reject the claim when it finds out that the driver was on the clock for an employer when the crash occurred.
Does Ninja provide insurance coverage to accident victims?
In some cases, yes. If the driver was on a delivery, Ninja may provide some backup insurance support. This is meant to kick in if a driver’s insurance hits its limits too soon, or if the claim is rejected. But as we mentioned above, Ninja Delivery also has company lawyers ready to help its employer escape blame. It’s often necessary to use evidence and the threat of a trial to hold a delivery business accountable.
What should I do right after getting hit by a delivery driver?
Make sure everyone is safe first. Call 911 and ask for an ambulance response if you are hurt in any way. Get checked out and go to the ER if necessary. Give officers a full account of what happened. Then, if you are able, and it’s safe to do so, try to collect some details from the scene that might quickly be cleaned up or towed away. Take photos of your injuries and any damage to the vehicles involved. If you see any signs showing that a driver was on the road for Ninja Delivery, get photos. Show where your car was and where the delivery ended up. Get witness contact information. Get the motorist’s driver’s license and car insurance information unless an officer provides it to you. Get an employee number from the driver if possible.
