Los Angeles is the largest delivery market in the western United States. With millions of daily orders from DoorDash, UberEats, Grubhub, Instacart, Amazon, and FedEx, delivery drivers are a constant presence on every road in LA County.
The highest density of delivery traffic is concentrated along restaurant corridors in Hollywood, Koreatown, Downtown LA, the Westside, and the San Fernando Valley. Delivery drivers rushing to meet time windows create dangerous conditions for other drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists.
Delivery driver accident claims are more complex than typical car accidents. Multiple insurance policies may apply, and delivery companies aggressively defend against liability by classifying drivers as independent contractors.
If you have been hit by a delivery driver, the insurance picture is complicated. The driver's personal policy, the delivery company's commercial policy, and your own coverage may all play a role. An experienced attorney untangles the policies and maximizes your recovery.
DoorDash carries commercial liability coverage when drivers are on active deliveries.
UberEats provides up to $1M in liability coverage during active deliveries.
Amazon DSP drivers are covered by commercial fleet policies with higher limits.
Major carriers carry substantial commercial policies. We hold them accountable.
Delivery drivers rushing through crosswalks and parking lots strike pedestrians.
Cyclists hit by distracted delivery drivers navigating with GPS apps.

A delivery cyclist on an e-bike hit you on a sidewalk — electric-assist delivery bikes create pedestrian hazards throughout restaurant corridors in Hollywood and Koreatown.
A FedEx truck backed into your vehicle in a parking lot — large delivery vehicles have significant blind spots that cause backing collisions.

The timeline for filing depends on the specific circumstances of your case. Under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 335.1, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. If a government entity was involved, the deadline is just six months under the California Government Claims Act. Call us to discuss the deadlines that apply to your case.
Liability depends on the driver's status at the time of the accident. If the driver was on an active delivery, the delivery company's commercial liability policy typically applies.

We investigate every available policy to maximize your recovery.
