Phoenix, AZ DoorDash Accident Lawyer

In recent years, there has been a rise in demand for food delivery, especially after 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Delivery apps like DoorDash make it easier than ever to get a meal right to your door quickly – but the more they become popular and the more options there are in delivery apps, the more delivery drivers you may see on the road. And sadly, an increase in the use of these apps and the delivery drivers fulfilling requests means an increase in DoorDash accidents.

With more demand than ever for food to be delivered right to your doorstep, there is unfortunately also an increased risk of being involved in a collision with a DoorDash delivery vehicle. Because DoorDash drivers know that more deliveries equal more tips, some drivers may be choosing to drive recklessly to get more delivery orders completed in a shorter amount of time. They may also be distracted by the DoorDash app itself while they’re driving whatever car or bike they’re using to make the deliveries.

In fact, according to DoorDash’s own Requirements for Dashing guidelines, “You can use any car to deliver. Just have a valid domestic driver’s license, insurance, and a clean driving record. In certain markets, you can also dash via motorcycle, bike, e-bike, or scooter.” So there are any number of types of vehicles on the road that could wind up in a DoorDash accident.

Insurance and other legalities can get complicated if you find yourself involved in a DoorDash accident. Although DoorDash does have “a commercial auto insurance policy that covers up to $1,000,000 in bodily injury and/or property damage to third parties arising out of accidents while on an active delivery,” what if the driver isn’t on an active delivery? Or, what if the DoorDash driver doesn’t have auto insurance, meaning DoorDash’s coverage may not apply?

That’s when you might need the assistance of a DoorDash accident lawyer. If you or a loved one has been involved in a DoorDash accident, please call Phillips Law Group today so we can give you a free, no-obligation consultation of your case and determine how best to seek justice for you.

I felt they were more my friends than my personal injury lawyer and that isn't something you're taught it's something you have inside. If I ever needed a lawyer again Phillips Law Group Injury Lawyers would be my only choice. I can't recommend them enough. They are professional on every level and compassionate throughout. Thank you for everything.

When in pain because of an accident all you want to do is focus on getting better and that is what did thanks to this firm. My family and I were set up with a Dr and Chiro right away. The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group. I decided to give them a call about my accident, and they were very respectful and took in my case immediately. They assigned me Tim LeDuc to represent me. From the beginning, he was very responsive and made sure to give me the proper care I deserved from this accident. Him and his team fought tooth and nail to give me the best settlement I deserved. I am so thankful, and I highly recommend Phillips Law Group to represent anyone who has been in any accident and...

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...

I am very impressed by how much care and effort this group puts into helping the homeless. That’s not something you see enough, especially in this time of increasing need for community. It’s important to me to work with companies that align with my views, and I would definitely go to Phillips for any future personal injury lawyer needs.

Rich S.

Just would like to share my experience with Phillips And Associates. Ever since my accident in the first of the year, it was a life changing event for me and I finally decided to go with a personal injury attorney. I contacted Phillips And Associates and they made me feel like I was an actual person instead of a lot of other firms try to go with me like a number, Phillips And Associates has reached out to me in a kind, courteous and caring way they fully understand on the circumstances of the accident So far, Phillips And Associates has been absolutely wonderful. I truly recommend going with Phillips And Associates. Thanks (RuthAnn), your the Best!!! And Thank you...

What Should I Do After a DoorDash Accident?

If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident with a DoorDash delivery driver, some steps you should take include:

• Call 911 – If you’ve been in a DoorDash delivery accident, you should get checked out by a physician right away. Indeed, after any motor vehicle accident, your first priority needs to be getting the medical attention that you need. This is important both for your health and just in case you need evidence of your injuries for your case later.
• Gather information – Provided you’re not too seriously injured, make sure the scene of the DoorDash accident is documented for evidence which could include photos, eyewitness reports, getting license plate numbers and contact information from all parties involved including the DoorDash driver, and more. You’ll want to make it clear whether or not the DoorDash delivery person was actively working for DoorDash at the time of the crash, so look for evidence like decals on their vehicle or a DoorDash delivery bag. 
• Contact your insurance company – You should notify your insurance company if you’ve been involved in any motor vehicle accident, and a DoorDash delivery crash is no different. However, if you are contacted by representatives from the DoorDash driver’s insurance company or from the company itself, you should be wary of what you say and make sure to…
• Hire a DoorDash accident lawyer – An attorney who is experienced in handling these types of accidents, like the ones at Phillips Law Group, will be able to advocate for your legal rights and advise you on how best to handle communications with the delivery person’s insurance company or with DoorDash. Your lawyer will advocate for you and make sure the right parties are held accountable for your accident.
