Amazon Delivery Driver Manhole Injury Attorney

As an Amazon delivery driver, you are pushed to the physical limit on busy days to deliver hundreds of parcels during your shift. You might find that you need to jog to the door of a home or office to deliver packages and then sprint back to your truck to get to all your stops in the time provided. However, these great jobs provide a reasonable living and exercise that will not be found working in a cramped office setting. But the rush to meet your quote and work within the time limit of your shift means you are focused on speed and could miss an unexpected safety hazard such as an open manhole.

Who Could Be To Blame For An Open Manhole?
Most people never really think about a manhole or the cover that keeps pedestrians safe from these potential hazards. In rare cases, people avoid stepping on the covers, but most never notice them. So, falling into an open manhole can be terrifying and cause serious harm. After seeking medical attention for your injuries, you are sure to want to understand who is responsible for leaving the cover off the manhole and, therefore, causing your injuries.

Based on the location of the manhole, the list of responsible parties can vary. If the manhole was in a city street, crosswalk, or sidewalk, the liable parties can include:

• The city and city workers who were in the area could have opened the manhole
• A contractor hired by the city needed to access the underground infrastructure
• A utility company with components in the underground tunnels or vault accessed by the manhole

In addition, you might encounter manholes on public property that access city tunnels or are used by the property and are privately owned. In cases where the facility is large and includes multiple structures, utilities could be privately owned and accessed via the manhole. Or the manhole could service a vault that holds equipment or utilities owned by the property. In either case, the ultimate liability for these safety hazards found on private property can fall to the property owner as well as the other people and entities listed above.

However, you need only know that the experts at Normandie Law Firm will work diligently to resolve this and all other aspects of the legal matter for you. You can focus on healing and know that our team will never give up until they have secured the compensation and justice you deserve.

Your Option To Open A Worker’s Comp Claim
Because you suffered an Amazon delivery driver manhole injury while on the clock, you can open a claim with the worker’s comp program. Workers who are hurt on the job can use this insurance program to cover the cost of medical care needed for a workplace injury. The program covers up to $1M in medical bills per injury incident. It will also provide you with up to 66% of your regular weekly income if you are unable to work at Amazon while recovering from your injuries. Added benefits are also offered if you suffer partial or permanent disability due to these injuries. The staff at Normandie Law Firm is ready to assist you in opening your claim and ensuring you get the full benefits provided by this vital and helpful program.

What Is An Amazon Delivery Driver Manhole Injury Lawsuit Worth?
If you decide to file a lawsuit against the party responsible for your open manhole injuries, you will work with the Normandie Law Firm legal staff to compile all your allowable expenses to determine the compensation sought by the lawsuit. Items typically used in this process include:

• All current and projected medical expenses related to the manhole injuries sustained
• The replacement cost of any personal property damaged or destroyed in the manhole injury incident
• The cost of legal services to prepare, file, and litigate your manhole injury lawsuit
• Your lost income if you cannot work at Amazon until you have fully recovered from the manhole injuries

It is also vital to know that you can open a worker’s comp claim to cover your medical expenses and partial lost income and file a personal injury lawsuit with the court. You will be permitted to sue for all compensation listed above that has not been provided by the worker’s comp claim you opened.

How Long Do I Have To Take Action?
You have 30 days from the date of the manhole injury incident to open a claim with worker’s compensation. If the claim is not opened in that time, you will lose the right to use this program for its benefits package. Victims of a personal injury are given two years from the date of the injury incident to file a personal injury lawsuit with the court. Much like with worker’s comp, once the time limit expires, the injury victim loses the right to seek compensation for the injuries and losses caused by that specific incident. Please get in touch with Normandie Law Firm today to discuss the crucial time limits to ensure you get the help you need to cover your losses and expenses.

No Upfront Legal Fees
At Normandie Law Firm, we never charge any fees or expenses when hired to handle a lawsuit. Our firm only gets paid for the time and financial investment made to prepare a lawsuit once the matter is resolved and our client has the compensation that includes funds to cover their legal costs. Finally, if the Normandie Law Firm Amazon delivery driver manhole injury attorney handling your case fails to win and get you the funds you deserve, you owe the firm nothing. Please contact our experts today to discuss your injury incident and the options you have to resolve the challenges caused by your injuries.
