We Handle the Full Range of DoorDash Injury Claims in Portland, Oregon
DoorDash is a technology company that operates a popular online food ordering and delivery platform. Through its app and website, users can browse a wide range of local dining options and have meals delivered directly to their doorsteps. Food delivery can be fast-paced. Unfortunately, car accidents can happen when folks use apps like DoorDash. At the Law Offices of Jon Friedman, we take on all types of DoorDash injury claims in Portland. Along with other cases, we have the experience to handle:
- DoorDash Workers: DoorDash workers face a risk of accidents and injuries. Notably, DoorDash delivery drivers are independent contractors, not employees, a status that has major implications for their personal injury claims. We fight for the rights of people hurt while delivering for DoorDash.
- Occupant of Other Vehicles: Hurt in a crash with a vehicle that was being driven by a DoorDash driver? Our Portland motor vehicle accident attorneys can help you navigate the claims process. Contact us today for a free consultation.
- Pedestrians and Bicyclists: DoorDash vehicles make frequent stops. They are also often driven by people who drive unfamiliar routes. Pedestrians and bicyclists face a heightened safety risk from DoorDash and other food service delivery vehicles.
What to Know About Comparative Negligence in Oregon
Oregon is a fault-based state for motor vehicle accident claims, including crashes involving food service delivery drivers, such as those working for DoorDash. The party responsible for a collision can be held legally liable for the resulting damages.
Notably, under Oregon law (ORS § 31.600), a modified comparative negligence standard applies to personal injury claims. A person involved in a DoorDash crash can still recover compensation even if they are partially at fault, so long as their fault is 50% or less.
Be Proactive: Personal Injury Statute of Limitations
Under Oregon law (ORS § 12.110), most personal injury claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations. In other words, you generally need to file a personal injury lawsuit within two years of an accident, or you will lose out on the right to bring a claim. There are only a few, very narrow exceptions that can sometimes apply. Take a proactive approach: Consult with a Portland DoorDash injury attorney as soon as possible.
Recovering Compensation for a DoorDash Injury Claim
How much can you expect to recover in financial compensation after a DoorDash accident? The answer depends on a number of different factors, including your ability to prove fault and the severity of your injuries. In Oregon, injured victims have a right to pursue compensation for both economic and intangible damages. You may be entitled to recover for:
- Property damage, such as vehicle repairs;
- Ambulance costs, including emergency medical care;
- Hospital bills and other related health care costs;
- Physical therapy and mental health counseling;
- Loss of wages and loss of earning potential;
- Pain and suffering;
- Disability or disfigurement; and
- Wrongful death.
