Maison Law of Porterville represents accident victims hurt in collisions caused by Walmart delivery drivers. Our personal injury lawyers immediately go to work to hold drivers, and in some cases, Walmart, fully liable.
We ensure victims can afford the best medical care available without having to worry about the cost. Please get in touch with us after an accident caused by a Walmart “Spark” driver. We provide a free, no-obligation consultation for all local injury victims. It’s a chance to see what your case may be worth and if a lawyer can help you earn more.
Do I Need a Lawyer After an Accident Involving a Walmart Delivery Car?
If you suffer a serious injury in a collision, and a Walmart “Spark” Driver is to blame, you should talk to a skilled Porterville Truck Accident Lawyer about your case. When medical bills run high, insurance adjusters and Walmart’s corporate lawyers look for ways to avoid blame. They can blame you for a frightening collision or question how badly you are hurt and how long you’ll need support.
Your Maison Law Attorney fights back by presenting physical evidence from the accident and medical evidence of your injury. Then your lawyer begins the negotiation process to earn you the maximum in compensation. A skilled attorney can often secure you much more in recovery help than you could by taking on Walmart yourself.
Who Can I Sue After an Accident with a Walmart Spark Driver?
You will likely have to start by filing a claim with the delivery driver’s own personal car insurance provider. Walmart uses Walmart Spark Drivers for some shipments of online orders, but it doesn’t grant those drivers a full-time employment designation.
Spark drivers are considered contract workers and which means Walmart doesn’t have to provide car accident insurance to these employees. The retail corporation requires Spark Drivers to carry their own car accident insurance and show proof of coverage before being hired.
This can be troubling for car accident victims seeking help with hospital bills and other damages. Delivery drivers will often purchase policies with the minimum coverage that California allows. This may not be enough to cover all costs for people with serious injuries. What’s more, some car insurance providers won’t cover an accident if their policyholder was working for Walmart at the time of the collision.
When victims aren’t getting the support they need, Maison Law can take the fight to Walmart. We can question its business practices and obviously the questionable lack of responsibility it accepts for the drivers it profits from.
We would raise questions about these factors and more:
- Question Walmart’s lack of accountability for the local contractors it hires.
- Question Walmart’s hiring process if an at-fault driver has a shady driving record.
- Question Walmart’s training programs and safety record. Does Walmart provide any safety guidance and set standards for its employees?
- Question Walmart’s standards on the vehicles Spark Drivers use if a malfunction or a lapse in auto maintenance causes a collision.
These and other acts of negligence can help you demand full compensation from Walmart after an accident. This can happen through a settlement or a lawsuit that your Maison Law representative will already be preparing.
Finding Support for Accidents Caused by Walmart’s Drivers
A Maison Law attorney could help you file a claim against any at-fault party. That may mean filing claims against an insurance company and Walmart. A lawyer would also help you file a claim against your own insurance company, demanding support from your underinsured/uninsured driver coverage.
Your legal representative forms a complete list of every hardship you’ve faced and then files the claim on your behalf.
These are just some of the factors that should raise your car accident settlement check total for you:
- The totals for your hospital care and physical therapy expenses.
- The estimated costs for care in the years to come if you suffer a long-term injury or a permanent physical disability.
- Travel costs while making doctor’s appointments and going to see specialists. This includes the cost of shuttle services if you can’t be on your feet or drive.
- Non-economic damages such as the physical pain and emotional distress you endure. This includes depression and anxiety, and a loss of enjoyment of life due to your injuries.
- Past and future lost income while you must miss work. Estimates on your lost earning capacity if you have a permanent disability.
- Money for property damage and car repairs or replacement.
- Wrongful Death Support. Families can file a wrongful death claim if a loved one is lost in a collision with a van. Close relatives could seek money to pay burial costs and remaining hospital bills. They should also receive help in the future when the loved one won’t be able to provide financial support to their spouse and children.
