Tens of millions of packages are delivered in the United States every day. Without transportation companies and truck drivers, the shipping and delivery process would be inefficient. If you are one of the 3.36 million truck drivers in the US, have been injured at work, and can no longer perform your job requirements, you may be entitled to compensation.

Types of Truck Drivers We Work With

According to the Strategic Organizing Center, nearly one in five Amazon delivery drivers suffered injuries in 2021. However, Amazon drivers are not the only truck and delivery drivers on the road. We work with various people in the transportation industry, including:

Whether you’re delivering goods 200 miles away, in your neighborhood, or taking packages from warehouses to consumers, you deserve to receive workers’ compensation benefits if you are injured on the job. 

Transportation Industry Accidents and Injuries

Truck and delivery drivers often work long hours in all types of conditions. Rain or shine, those in the transportation industry ensure the packages they deliver make it to their destination on time. These types of situations can lead to accidents and injuries. 

Here are some of the most common accidents truck and delivery drivers experience on the job:

These types of trucking and delivery accidents can lead to injuries, including broken bones, back injuries, shoulder injuries, and more. 

If you’re injured while driving your truck or making a delivery, your employer is obligated to pay for your lost wages and medical care. Often, employers misclassify truck drivers as independent contractors, which may not be correct depending on the circumstances. Contact us after your trucking accident or delivery injury so we can help you get the benefits you deserve.

Our lawyers will educate you about your rights to workers’ compensation and ensure your benefits are calculated correctly. We can also explore your options to pursue a lawsuit against third parties for negligence, such as other drivers who caused your accident or a defect on someone’s property that lead to your injury.
