I NEED HELP NOW

Your personal injury lawyer can help you calculate your recoverable damages, which may include:

  • Medical Bills
  • Income Loss
  • Property Damage
  • Pain & Suffering
  • Emotional Distress
  • Lasting Disfigurement

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), aggressive driving occurs when an individual commits a combination of traffic violations and offenses that endanger other people. It goes one step further than negligence in that the driver is often aware that they are driving aggressively.

If you were injured or lost a loved one in an aggressive driving accident, you do not have to navigate the legal process alone. With the help of an Alexandria aggressive driving accident lawyer, you may be able to recover the cost of your medical bills, lost wages, and emotional anguish.

At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we understand just how dangerous an aggressive driver can be. If another motorist was responsible for your losses, our Alexandria car accident lawyers can hold them accountable for the cost of your accident-related expenses. To get started with a free case review, call us today.

Examples of Aggressive Driving

An Alexandria personal injury lawyer will work to help prove that another party’s aggressive driving practices caused an accident in which you suffered both injuries and financial losses.

Some examples of aggressive driving include:

  • Tailgating
  • Suddenly making a lane change without signaling
  • Illegally driving on the shoulder, sidewalk, or ditch
  • Passing another car where prohibited
  • Racing with other drivers
  • Disregarding posted traffic signals
  • Speeding
  • Engaging in road rage

Some aggressive drivers even strike pedestrians. In this situation, you can contact an Alexandria pedestrian accident attorney for assistance.

Our law firm can investigate your accident, identify the responsible party, and pursue compensation for your losses. We encourage you to reach out to the Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers team today. In this situation, you may contact an Alexandria Uber accident lawyer for professional assistance.

How to Prove Aggressive Driving

Under Louisiana Revised Statute §14:99, a motorist who engages in reckless driving may face both civil and criminal penalties. However, proving that a person’s actions were aggressive in nature may be difficult in a personal injury case. Our law firm will conduct an investigation into your situation to determine fault and liability. However, to be successful, your case must be rooted in evidence.

Information that could support your claim includes:

Eyewitness Statements

Bystanders or passengers in your vehicle may testify that the at-fault driver was operating their vehicle aggressively, and they caused your accident. We can use written statements from witnesses as part of your claim.

Traffic Surveillance Footage

We may be able to look at surveillance videos or photos of the accident to get a clearer picture of what happened and who is responsible.

Expert Testimony

We may obtain statements from field experts who can corroborate your story and demonstrate that the other motorist was driving aggressively. Witnesses may include accident reconstruction experts, law enforcement officials, or medical professionals.

With the right evidence, we can determine who was responsible for your losses and seek the cost of your incurred damages. An Alexandria aggressive driving accident lawyer may be able to find additional pieces of information that we have not listed here. Get started with your case by calling Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers today at (337) 777-7777.

Compensable Damages from an Aggressive Driving Accident Case

Damages in an aggressive driving case can range from financial losses to noneconomic losses, such as pain and suffering. Your lawyer will use billing statements, receipts, invoices, and other pieces of information to estimate the value of your claim.

You may be able to recover the cost of:

  • Both present and projected medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Reduced earning capacity
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering and inconvenience
  • Dismemberment
  • Disfigurement
  • Disability
  • Impaired quality of life

Many claimants ask us how we are able to assign a price tag to items that do not have a verifiable value. Typically, the more severe your injuries, the more you can expect to receive for these types of damages.

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.

Aggressive Driving and Rideshare Accidents

When a rideshare driver engages in aggressive driving and causes an accident, both the driver and the rideshare company may be held responsible for any injuries or damages. Who is liable depends on many factors, including the driver’s status on the rideshare app.

Correctly identifying the liable party can be difficult without an Uber accident lawyer in Alexandria. Our team will investigate the incident and review your options for compensation.

They treated us like no other people would. Whenever we needed something they were there for us. I put my trust in them and I don’t regret it.

Wrongful Death in Aggressive Driving Cases

A driver’s careless actions may have caused the death of a loved one. If so, your family may be entitled to damages that are related to your loved one’s death. Although nothing can replace the loss of a family member, we can help you seek compensation for your expenses.

Your family may be eligible to recover the following:

Funeral and Burial Expenses

Funerals can cost families thousands of dollars. Many of these expenses include the memorial service, body preparation, burial, plot, casket, and funeral home fees.

Pre-Death Medical Expenses

If the decedent received any type of medical care prior to death, you may also recover these costs. They may include emergency medical care, life support, hospitalization, or specialized treatment.

Household Losses

If the decedent was a financial provider for their home, your lawyer can help you recover the cost of lost income. Additionally, your lawyer may be able to recover the loss of parental guidance, loss of consortium, and loss of household services.

Our law firm can help your family through this difficult time. Yet, filing a wrongful death claim can be difficult, since only qualifying family members are able to take this type of civil action. Additionally, you only have a limited time to act. Under CC 3493.1, you only have two years from the date of your loved one’s passing to take your case to court. If you do not take action within this period, you may lose your right to compensation.

Call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers today so we can get started with your case.

Working with the Insurance Company

In most personal injury or wrongful death cases, compensation will come from the at-fault party’s insurance company. Instead of speaking directly with the insurer, allow your Alexandria aggressive driving accident lawyer to do it for you. We understand how insurance companies operate in personal injury cases.

We can negotiate a fair settlement with the insurance company to get you the compensation you need. If the company denies your claim or offers a low settlement, you may have the option of taking your case to court. But remember, as we mentioned before, under Louisiana’s statute of limitations, you only have two years from the date of your collision to file a lawsuit. For that reason, your time to act may be limited.

Call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers Today

At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we are dedicated to helping you recover your damages and get back on your feet. To get started with your case, call (337) 777-7777.
