Injured in a Delivery Truck Accident? Breit Biniazan Can Help.

Delivery trucks flood the roads daily, rushing to meet tight schedules for companies like Amazon, UPS, FedEx, and USPS.

Whether you were hit by a speeding delivery truck, suffered injuries as a passenger, or lost a loved one in a tragic crash, our experienced truck accident attorneys will help you seek justice and navigate your personal injury claim.

Recent Success Story

Our team recently secured a $10.3 million settlement in a case involving a major box truck delivery company. Due to confidentiality agreements, we can’t disclose specific names, but this is just one of several high-value outcomes we’ve achieved for our clients in similar situations. If you’d like to learn more about our experience with these types of cases, contact us directly for additional details.

The Dangers of Delivery Truck Accidents

Box trucks and delivery vehicles are essential for modern e-commerce, but their presence on the road poses serious risks. These trucks:

  • Weigh thousands of pounds, making crashes more severe. The size and weight of these trucks can result in serious injury or death to individuals involved in collisions.
  • Are often driven by fatigued, overworked drivers trying to meet strict quotas.
  • Operate on tight deadlines, leading to reckless behavior like speeding and running red lights.
  • Make frequent stops, increasing the risk of rear-end collisions and pedestrian accidents.

According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), commercial truck accidents result in thousands of deaths and severe injuries every year. Delivery drivers working for companies like Amazon, FedEx, and UPS are often involved in these crashes due to the pressure of same-day and next-day deliveries.

If a reckless delivery truck driver caused your accident, you have the right to pursue compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Types of Box Truck Accidents

Box truck accidents can occur due to various factors, including driver error, vehicle maintenance issues, and road conditions. Some common types of box truck accidents include:

  • Rollover Accidents: These occur when the box truck tips over, often due to sharp turns or sudden stops. The high center of gravity in box trucks makes them particularly susceptible to rollovers.
  • Rear-End Collisions: These happen when a box truck collides with another vehicle from behind. Given the weight and size of box trucks, rear-end collisions can result in significant damage and serious injuries.
  • Side-Swipe Accidents: These occur when a box truck collides with another vehicle from the side, often during lane changes or merging.
  • Head-On Collisions: These are among the most severe types of accidents, occurring when a box truck collides head-on with another vehicle. The impact can be devastating due to the combined speed and mass of the vehicles involved.
  • Pedestrian Accidents: These occur when a box truck collides with a pedestrian, often in urban areas where delivery trucks frequently operate.
  • Cargo-Related Accidents: These happen when the cargo being transported by the box truck becomes loose or falls off, causing an accident. Improperly secured cargo can lead to dangerous road conditions and unexpected hazards.

Understanding the different types of box truck accidents can help in identifying the causes and determining liability in these complex cases.

Common Causes of Delivery Truck Accidents

1. Driver Fatigue

Many delivery drivers work long shifts with little rest, leading to exhaustion and poor decision-making behind the wheel.

2. Distracted Driving

Delivery drivers frequently use GPS, text dispatchers, and scan packages while driving, increasing the likelihood of accidents.

3. Speeding & Reckless Driving

To meet strict delivery deadlines, drivers often speed, run red lights, and make dangerous turns.

4. Poor Vehicle Maintenance

Delivery trucks require regular maintenance, but companies often fail to inspect brakes, tires, and engines, leading to catastrophic failures on the road.

5. Improper Training

Many delivery companies, including Amazon, contract drivers through third-party delivery services, failing to provide adequate safety training.

6. Unsafe Road Conditions

Weather hazards, construction zones, and poorly designed streets can make accidents more likely for large delivery trucks.

Who Is Liable in a Box Truck Accident?

The Delivery Driver

If the driver was speeding, distracted, or acting recklessly, they can be held responsible for the crash.

The Delivery Company (Amazon, UPS, FedEx, etc.)

Even if the driver was a contractor, the company may be liable for poor hiring practices, unrealistic delivery demands, or lack of truck maintenance.

Third-Party Contractors

Many Amazon drivers work for third-party logistics companies that may be held accountable for negligence and unsafe practices.

Truck Manufacturers

If defective brakes, tires, or steering systems contributed to the crash, the vehicle manufacturer could be legally responsible.

At Breit Biniazan, we conduct thorough investigations to determine who should be held accountable for your injuries.

Proving Fault in a Truck Accident Case

Proving fault in a truck accident case can be complex and requires a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the accident. To establish fault, the following elements must be demonstrated:

  • Causation: It must be shown that the defendant’s actions or inactions directly caused the accident.
  • Negligence: The defendant’s actions or inactions must be proven to be negligent, meaning they failed to exercise reasonable care.
  • Damages: The plaintiff must have suffered damages as a result of the accident, such as medical expenses, lost wages, or pain and suffering.

What Compensation Can Victims Receive?

If you were injured in a delivery truck accident, you may be eligible for financial compensation, including:

The value of a truck accident claim can be influenced by various factors, making it essential to have legal representation to navigate the claims process and secure necessary compensation.

Medical Expenses

Emergency care, surgeries, rehabilitation, and long-term medical treatments.

Lost Wages

Compensation for missed workdays and future earning potential if you’re unable to return to work.

Pain and Suffering

Damages for physical pain, emotional trauma, and decreased quality of life.

Wrongful Death

If a loved one was killed in a box truck accident, you may be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit for funeral costs and loss of financial support.

Our goal is to maximize your settlement so you can focus on healing.

How Breit Biniazan Helps Victims of Delivery Truck Accidents

Our experienced truck accident lawyers at Breit Biniazan know how to fight against large delivery companies and insurance providers that try to minimize or deny claims. Here’s how we help:

  • Investigating the accident thoroughly – Gathering black box data, surveillance footage, and witness statements to build a strong case.
  • Holding the responsible parties accountable – Whether it’s Amazon, UPS, FedEx, or a third-party logistics provider, we fight to make them pay for their negligence.
  • Negotiating – We won’t let insurance companies lowball your settlement. We demand full compensation for your losses.
  •  Going to trial if necessary – If a fair settlement isn’t offered, our skilled trial attorneys will take your case to court.

With millions recovered for accident victims, we have the experience and dedication needed to win your case. As a highly-rated truck accident law firm, we are committed to securing justice for our clients injured in truck accidents.

Why You Need a Truck Accident Attorney

Truck accident cases can be especially devastating due to the size and weight of these large trucks. Hiring a truck accident attorney can significantly increase your chances of successfully pursuing compensation for your injuries. One critical aspect of truck accident cases is the data recorded by Electronic Control Units (ECUs) in box trucks. These devices can capture crucial information leading up to the accident, such as speed and evidence of unsafe operation. An experienced truck accident attorney can help you secure this data before it is destroyed or becomes unavailable.

Additionally, a lawyer can navigate the complex nature of a box truck accident case, including dealing with multiple parties such as the trucking company, insurance providers, and potentially third-party contractors. They can also help you understand your rights, gather necessary evidence, and negotiate a fair settlement. Without legal representation, you may find it challenging to obtain the compensation you deserve for your injuries and losses.

What to Do After a Box Truck Accident

If you are involved in a box truck accident, it is essential to take the following steps to protect your health and legal rights:

  • Seek Medical Attention Immediately: Even if you feel your injuries are minor, it is crucial to get checked by a medical professional. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent.
  • Contact a Trucking Accident Attorney: Reach out to an experienced truck accident attorney as soon as possible. They can guide you through the legal process and help protect your rights.
  • Preserve Evidence: Take photographs of the accident scene, your injuries, and any damage to your vehicle. Collect contact information from witnesses and obtain a copy of the police report.
  • Avoid Speaking with Insurance Companies: Do not speak with the insurance company or the trucking company without first consulting with a lawyer. They may try to offer you a settlement that is not in your best interest. A lawyer can help you negotiate a fair settlement.

Taking these steps can help ensure that an accurate representation of the incident is captured in the record and that you receive the compensation you deserve for your injuries and losses.

Box Truck Accident Lawyer FAQ's

Can I Sue Amazon, UPS, or FedEx for a Truck Accident?

Yes. If a delivery driver caused your accident, the company may be liable, even if the driver is a contractor.

How Much is My Box Truck Accident Case Worth?

It depends on injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and long-term suffering. Our attorneys can assess your case value.

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?

Most states have a 2-3 year statute of limitations for filing a truck accident lawsuit, so it is crucial to act quickly to protect your rights.

What If the Truck Driver Was an Independent Contractor?

Even if the driver was a contractor, the delivery company or third-party logistics provider may still be held responsible.

"Working with this law firm made settling my case a breeze!

With a couple visits and a few emails back and forth with my paralegal and attorney, my case was settled in less than a year!

I would recommend to family & friends."

Cobi M.

"Throughout 2019 and 2020 Attorney Kevin Biniazan helped me with a personal injury case. Aside from the professionalism and attentiveness one would expect from a quality law firm such as Breit Cantor Grana Buckner, I was taken by the fact that they agreed to take my case on a contingency basis, even though there was little evidence in my favor in the early stages of preparation. This meant the world to me. It meant that they believed in me, and my case, when two other firms declined to take the case. In late 2020 the case settled out of court and I received a substantial monetary award that exceeded my expectations. Thank you Kevin, and all your support staff for believing in me when many others did not!!!!"

Markgerszewski

"This law firm was highly recommended by a friend who had prior representation. I am very pleased with their professionalism and they kept me well informed of my injury case.

Scott S.

"My experience with Breit Biniazan and his team was very positive. They were very helpful, were always available, took time to explain the process, and answer any questions I had. A special thanks to Kellie for all her support and efforts. I always felt she was on my side and looking out for my best interest. I would highly recommend Mr. Binazan and his team and would not hesitate to use their services should the need arise."

Mark T.

"Michael Collett represented us in our suit, and he was incredible. He made quick, efficient work of getting our case positively resolved while also making sure to keep us updated along the way. We recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a personal injury suit.

Our suit had dragged on for five years, and we wondered if it would ever be finished. Once Mike was handed our case, he immediately got to work getting to know us and understanding the timeline of events. Additionally, as a prior military member, he understood that our case was not a traditional cut-and-dry lawsuit: our life continued while the company dragged it out in court, including PCSing overseas and then back to the US during COVID. This kind of personal understanding and attention to detail was instrumental to our case. Mike's background, compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism made the difference; without him, we could have had a very different outcome.

If you are in need of any representation for a personal injury suit, I highly recommend Michael and his colleagues."

Kim V.

"I'm an attorney in Nebraska and represented a Nebraska family who lost their son/brother due to an electrocution on a job site in Virginia. After handling the workers' compensation claim in Nebraska, I reached out to multiple law firms in Virginia, ultimately co-counseling with Kevin Biniazan on the Virginia third party claims. He worked the case up, secured experts, and ultimately tried the case to a jury. Kevin and his team did a fantastic job presenting the case, arguing points of law, and overall just demonstrated that they had put extraordinary time and effort into preparing the case for trial. They secured a 7-figure recovery on tough facts and were great to work with along the way. I highly recommend Kevin and his firm."

Aaron B.

"I give Kevin Biniazan and his team the highest rating I can. I had a case in Va Beach a few years ago, called a few attorneys but ended up going with Kevin because of the knowledge and compassion he showed. After telling Kevin my issue, he and his team did all the work. They took the time to listen to my concerns and feelings, they were informative and available at all times. Along with the success of my case, Kevin and his team gave me the opportunity and support I needed to begin healing. I couldn’t recommend enough!"

Brit T.

"Outstanding service! My case lasted approximately 2 years, the staff was more than patient with me and the multiple questions I had throughout the process. I highly recommend their services to all."

Donald B.

"I was injured in a motorcycle accident with a car driver and refered to Breit Biniazan by a second lawfirm from my home state. They were professional and got me through one of the most painful times in my life. I simply gave them what they needed and they took care of the rest, getting me proper compensation for my pain and suffering."

Kurtis P.

"I took a chance on this firm from a recommendation and I couldn’t be happier with their work and the results of my case. Kellie and Nilda are pure gold! Kellie kept me appraised of everything that was going on, timely and answered all my questions and concerns. I followed a recommendation; trust me, Breit Biniazan is the very best!"

Ally A.

"Kevin, Kylee and his team are the best in the business! They are the most trustworthy,hardworking,dedicated, honest, and morally outstanding people I've had the pleasure of knowing."

They worked with me for well over a year, coming to a successful resolution for my cases. They are incredibly passionate about their job and getting to an outcome desired for their plaintiffs. I would recommend their firm for any cases you may have, no questions asked."

Zach H.

"I’ve never been in a lawsuit, nor have I been to court, or had anything dealing with legal matter so all of this was pretty new to me, and 9/10 it was scary & heart racing. The only reason I got through it is because of Kevin. If it wasn’t for him with his patience, his commitment to his client, or the will to go the distance I never would’ve had confidence in any of this legal stuff. 10/10 recommend Breit Biniazan."

Tyler B.

"Kept me informed of the entire process. Offered advice on how to proceed."

Kenneth P.

"Fantastic team! Kevin is an amazing attorney who comes through on his word. Kylee and the team of paralegals went above and beyond to help me understand what we should expect in the case. I highly recommend Kevin’s team to anyone who is not only in need of a legal team, but one who will get them what they deserve!"

Angelica S.

"Kevin and his team worked tirelessly to help us secure the best possible outcome for an incredibly difficult situation. They were supportive and attentive to our needs, walked us through the process step by step and fought hard for us. I would highly recommend Breit Biniazan for all of your legal needs."

Carmen A.

"Following a motor vehicle accident, I needed assistance with handling insurance issues and was referred to Breit Biniazan for their expertise. I had the pleasure of working with attorney Alexis Meier and her paralegal Molisa Gardner. They managed my case with utmost professionalism, efficiency, and thoroughness.

As a physician, I am aware that some law firms may try to enhance settlements by recommending excessive consultations, imaging studies, and other tests, as well as extensive therapy. However, Alexis and Molisa ensured that I received the necessary care without subjecting me to unnecessary tests or treatments. I found their approach to be both ethical and professional.

I wholeheartedly endorse Breit Biniazan and recommend their services to anyone in a similar situation."

Andrew D.

"Alexis Meier is an exceptional attorney—professional, knowledgeable, and highly effective. She handled my case with efficiency, care, and compassion, ensuring everything was managed seamlessly. Her team was equally impressive, always responsive and prompt in their communication. It was an absolute pleasure working with them, and I highly recommend Alexis and her team to anyone in need of outstanding legal representation."
