Van Alstyne FedEx Accidents Attorney

Respected Texas Lawyers for FedEx Accidents in Van Alstyne, Texas

Accidents with FedEx drivers can come with devastating damage. Delivery vans often outweigh the average car by several thousand pounds, and a collision has the potential for serious bodily harm. If you have been struck by one of these delivery vans, you might have questions about whether you can sue and for how much. A personal injury attorney can guide you through the process of gathering evidence and building up a case with an insurance company, providing you with sound counsel and representation. At Burress Injury Law, we are proud to represent clients in Van Alstyne, helping victims of FedEx accidents recover real compensation.

Liability in FedEx Accidents

In a FedEx accident, the delivery driver is often the first person to be held responsible, as the accident could be attributed to his or her negligence. The driver may have gone above the speed limit to make a delivery or failed to yield in a traffic sign, directly causing the accident. You can pursue compensation through the driver's personal insurance as well as the insurance company supplied by the company.

Liability does not end with the driver, however. Under the law of vicarious liability, FedEx could be held directly responsible for an accident, as long as the driver was performing the regular functions of his or her job at the time of the accident. In addition, third-party manufacturers or maintenance companies could be held responsible for any mechanical failure of the delivery van, such as a break failure.

In any case, you can expect that FedEx will attempt to separate itself from the accident and throw the blame at the delivery driver's feet. At Burress Injury Law, our experienced personal injury lawyers will gather evidence from the scene, collect witness statements, and consult with crash reconstruction experts to get a full picture of liability for the accident.

Navigating a FedEx Accident Claim

It is crucial that you seek representation from a personal injury attorney while negotiating for compensation. After the accident, you may be contacted by a FedEx insurance representative to discuss your claim.

We highly advise that you avoid answering any questions over the phone, as your responses could be used to hurt your own case. Before entering negotiations with an insurance company, you should make contact with a personal injury who can help you avoid common pitfalls while filing your claim. Our attorneys will fight any attempt to delay or deny your claim.
