What Is My Amazon Van or Truck Accident Case Worth?
The value of your Amazon accident claim depends on several key factors. How severe your injuries were greatly affects the amount of compensation you will receive. More serious injuries that need long-term medical care and cause permanent disability typically lead to higher settlements.
How the accident affects your ability to work, both now and in the future, also impacts your case value. Insurance policy limits matter, too. Amazon delivery vehicles usually have commercial policies with higher limits than personal vehicles, which may allow for more compensation in serious accident cases. Our attorneys will work with you to maximize your recovery.
What Types of Damages Are Available?
If you’re hurt in an Amazon van or truck accident in Florida, you may qualify for different types of compensation, including:
Economic Damages
Economic damages pay you back for money losses from the accident:
- Medical bills (current and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning ability
- Vehicle and property damage
- Rehab costs
- Home changes needed due to injuries
These damages can be calculated using bills, receipts, and expert opinions about future costs.
Non-Economic Damages
Non-economic damages address personal losses that don’t have clear dollar values:
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Reduced quality of life
- Scarring or disability
- Loss of companionship
While harder to measure, these damages often make up a large part of Amazon accident settlements.
How Much Does It Cost to Hire an Amazon Accident Lawyer?
At Shaked Law Firm, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront. We only get paid if we win money for you through a settlement or court award. This fee structure removes financial barriers to getting quality legal help. In your free initial consultation, we’ll clearly explain our fees so you know exactly how payment works if your case succeeds.
Can I Recover Compensation If I’m Being Blamed for an Amazon Van or Truck Accident in Florida?
Yes, you may still recover compensation even if you share some blame. Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means you can recover damages if you’re found 50% or less at fault for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by the percentage of your fault.
We’ll Fight to Recover Compensation for All of Your Accident Injuries
Amazon delivery vehicle accidents often cause severe injuries because of the size difference between commercial vehicles and cars.
Our firm has helped clients get compensation for injuries, including:
- Brain trauma
- Spinal cord damage
- Severe burns
- Multiple broken bones
- Internal organ damage
- Lost limbs
- Neck and back injuries
- PTSD and emotional trauma
We work with medical experts to document all your injuries and how they affect your life, making sure all your current and future medical needs are covered in your claim.
What Causes Most Amazon Delivery Vehicle Accidents in Florida?
Amazon’s tight delivery schedules and performance targets create conditions that often lead to accidents.
Common causes include:
- Driver fatigue from long shifts
- Poor training of delivery workers
- Distracted driving while using GPS
- Speeding to meet deadlines
- Poor vehicle maintenance
- Overloaded vehicles
- Illegal parking and road hazards
- New drivers operating large vehicles
Understanding what caused your accident is key to proving liability and building a strong case for compensation.
How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit After an Amazon Van or Truck Accident in Florida?
In Florida, you have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit for vehicle accidents. This deadline is strict, and missing it usually means losing your right to seek compensation. Some situations may extend or shorten this time limit. Consult with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident to protect your rights.
What Should I Do After an Amazon Delivery Vehicle Accident?
Taking the right steps after an Amazon truck accident can greatly affect your chances of getting compensation:
- Get medical care right away, even for minor injuries
- Report the accident to the police
- Take photos and videos of the scene if possible
- Get contact info from the delivery driver and witnesses
- Write down the Amazon vehicle information
- Don’t give recorded statements to insurance companies
- Keep all medical records and bills
- Talk to a Florida truck accident attorney before accepting any settlement offers
Remember that Amazon delivery vehicles are often operated by outside contractors, not Amazon directly. This creates complex liability issues that need professional legal analysis.
