Restoring Dignity & Control After An Injury 

Skilled Delivery Driver Accident Lawyers Serving Chicago And Surrounding Areas

Delivery jobs often involve tight schedules, long hours and physically demanding tasks, all of which increase the risk of accidents. If you were injured while working as a delivery driver, a Chicago delivery driver accident lawyer can help you pursue workers’ compensation benefits.

At The Law Offices of Millon & Peskin, Ltd., our attorneys have more than 45 years of combined experience representing injured workers across Chicagoland. We are dedicated to helping delivery drivers secure benefits for medical bills, lost wages and other damages resulting from workplace injuries.

Common Causes Of Delivery Vehicle Accidents

Delivery vehicle accidents can result from several factors, including:

  • Fatigue from demanding schedules
  • Distracted driving, such as using a GPS
  • Poor vehicle maintenance
  • Hazardous loading and unloading practices
  • Severe weather conditions
  • Negligent drivers on the road

Identifying the cause of your accident is essential to building a strong claim.

Common Delivery Worker Injuries

Delivery drivers face various job-related injuries, such as:

  • Head and brain injuries from collisions.
  • Back and spinal injuries from lifting or falls.
  • Leg and foot injuries from slips or accidents while unloading.
  • Cuts and abrasions from handling heavy packages.
  • Repetitive strain injuries caused by continuous lifting or bending.

We collaborate with medical professionals to document the full scope of your injuries and their impact on your ability to work.

Proving A Delivery Accident Claim

To obtain workers’ compensation, you must demonstrate that your injuries were work-related. This typically requires:

  • Documenting the accident scene with photos or witness statements.
  • Reporting the incident to your employer promptly.
  • Providing medical records linking the injury to your job tasks.
  • Investigating employer safety practices that may have contributed to the accident.

Our attorneys will gather and analyze evidence, including accident reports, medical records and employer safety policies, to build a compelling case and strengthen your claim.
