Who’s Liable After a Delivery Driver Accident?

Delivery drivers use personal vehicles—but they’re often “on the clock” for a company like Doordash or Grubhub. That makes the insurance situation complicated.

Depending on the driver’s status at the time of the crash, one of the following may apply:

  • Off the app: Only their personal insurance is active.
  • Online but waiting for an order: Some companies offer limited coverage.
  • On an active delivery: Commercial insurance from Doordash, Grubhub, or another platform may apply.

We investigate the facts, preserve key evidence, and determine which insurance policies are in play. Whether you were injured by a delivery driver—or while working as one—we’re ready to fight for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

I was hit by a Doordash driver. Can I sue the company?

It depends. Doordash drivers are considered independent contractors, which makes suing the company directly difficult—but their commercial insurance may still apply. We’ll help you figure out who’s financially responsible and go after the coverage you’re entitled to.

I was injured while delivering for Grubhub. What are my options?

You may be covered under Grubhub’s limited insurance, depending on when and how the accident happened. Some drivers also have additional coverage or may be eligible for other benefits. We can help you sort through your options.

Do these companies have insurance for their drivers?

Yes—most food delivery apps provide some coverage when drivers are actively working. The limits and rules vary, so it’s important to act quickly and talk to a lawyer who understands the system.

What if the delivery driver left the scene or didn’t report the accident?

Hit-and-run crashes are sadly common. If you were hurt and the other driver left the scene, you may still have options through your own uninsured motorist coverage or other sources. Call us to talk through your situation.

What’s the deadline to file a claim?

In California, you typically have two years from the date of the crash to file a lawsuit. But evidence can disappear fast, and claims involving delivery apps may have shorter internal deadlines—don’t wait.
