Delivery van accidents have surged in recent years as e-commerce growth puts more commercial vehicles on our roads than ever before. These accidents often involve drivers rushing to meet tight delivery schedules, leading to reckless driving behaviors, inadequate vehicle inspections, and preventable collisions that cause serious harm to other motorists and pedestrians.
Common causes of delivery van accidents include speeding to complete routes on time, frequent stops creating blind spot hazards, distracted driving while checking delivery apps or packages, improper loading causing cargo shifts, and driver fatigue from demanding schedules. The pressure delivery drivers face to meet quotas can override safe driving practices.
Victims of delivery van accidents may face complex liability scenarios involving the driver, delivery company, vehicle leasing companies, and cargo loaders. Major delivery corporations often have aggressive legal teams working to minimize their liability and compensation payouts, making experienced legal representation essential for protecting your rights.

Our attorneys investigate hiring practices, training protocols, maintenance records, and electronic logging data to build comprehensive cases that secure maximum compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
