In New York, car accidents are not only frequent, but they can also be dangerous. According to a study conducted between 2012 and 2014, the New York Department of Health found that there was a yearly average of 12,093 hospitalizations, 1,098 deaths, and 136,913 emergency department visits due to motor vehicle traffic injuries throughout the state.

We Can Help You Fight for Compensation from a Delivery Van Driver

After your White Plains delivery van accident, you may be experiencing many types of damages, which might include out-of-pocket expenses. A White Plains delivery van accident lawyer can help build your case and pursue compensation on your behalf during insurance settlement negotiations or through a personal injury lawsuit.

Your attorney may review your losses and combine their values to determine fair value from your delivery van accident claim. This total figure may be used as a goal figure for your lawyer during insurance negotiations.

Your damages may include monetary losses, such as auto repair bills, or noneconomic losses, such as any emotional distress you experienced after the accident. Some potentially recoverable damages from your White Plains delivery van accident case may include:

  • Emergency transportation expenses
  • Medical care and treatment expenses (current and ongoing)
  • Expenses related to hospital stays or surgeries
  • Property damages
  • Lost wages
  • Lost future earnings
  • Limited earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of enjoyment
  • Loss of consortium
  • Replacement of damaged property

Claimants who were injured by delivery van drivers may be entitled to recover compensation from both the driver and their employer. The American Bar Association states that claimants may be able to “recover [damages] from the delivery person’s employer because, under the law, employers may be held liable to third persons for acts committed by employees within the scope of their job.”

Working with a White Plains Delivery Van Accident Lawyer May Be More Convenient for You

Once you have requested a case evaluation with our firm, you can begin working with a White Plains delivery van accident lawyer. During a case evaluation, we will hear your personal account of the accident. We may also request and collect any evidence you may have readily available.

If you decide to work with our legal team, we may offer to:

  • Handle the entirety of your delivery van accident claim or lawsuit
  • Protect your rights throughout the legal process
  • Determine the value of your case
  • Argue your car accident case on your behalf
  • Pursue an insurance settlement or personal injury lawsuit
  • Negotiate a settlement with an insurance company on your behalf
  • File a personal injury lawsuit within New York’s statutory deadline, as written in the New York Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) § 214
  • Obtaining evidence against the defendant that might prove fault and negligence, such as a police report, photographs of the accident and your injuries, medical documentation, surveillance video, and eyewitness interviews

Speaking with Insurance Companies After a Van Accident

Another helpful asset of working with a White Plains delivery van accident lawyer is they can communicate with insurance companies for you. By doing so, you do not have to worry about admitting fault or being constantly harassed by insurance providers after the accident. Once you have reported the accident to start the insurance claims process, our firm can handle the remainder of all communications or negotiations with insurance companies involved with your claim.

This might be especially helpful when you are evaluating a settlement. Without an attorney arguing your claim on your behalf, you may be tempted to accept the first offer presented to you. However, this initial offer might not cover the full value of your damages. By working with a delivery van accident lawyer, they can advise you on how “fair” a settlement offer is, based on the calculations you both make about your damages.

If you were injured in a delivery van accident in White Plains, New York, call Morelli Law Firm today at (212) 751-9800.

Working to Prove Fault, Negligence, and Liability

To prove fault in a delivery van accident claim, you might need to obtain a police report and additional evidence against the defendant. Such evidence must prove the defendant acted with negligence, especially during a personal injury lawsuit. The four elements of negligence must be established against a defendant, which are:

  • The defendant owed a legal duty of care to the plaintiff
  • The defendant breached this duty of care
  • The plaintiff suffered a related injury
  • The defendant’s actions caused the plaintiff’s injury and other damages
