Branch Uber Accident Lawyer

Every time you hop in an Uber, you’re confident the driver will adhere to the rules of the road and bring you home safely. Unfortunately, we know this isn’t always the case—accidents happen in Ubers, leaving passengers or others with injuries and emotional trauma, some lasting a lifetime.

The aftermath of an Uber accident can be confusing and stressful. A Branch Uber accident lawyer can help you during this difficult time. Personal injury lawyers know exactly how to handle cases just like yours.

What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Specialize In?

Generally, calculating a Branch Uber accident settlement may involve three different types of compensation. The personal injury lawyers at the Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers can help you win the following damages in a claim following an Uber accident in Branch:

  • Consortium damages: This is awarded if the victim has a spouse and the accident led to a loss of companionship.
  • Economic damages: Current and future medical expenses, current and future lost earnings, and permanent impairment of earning capacity.
  • Non-economic damages: Pain, suffering, anguish, mental pain, and impairment of normal quality of life.

Our seasoned attorneys will negotiate for you to reach a fair settlement. We do the work while you focus on recovering.

Who Takes the Blame for My Injuries?

Louisiana law demands that fault and liability for a car accident be determined using the “pure comparative negligence” principle. This means that, if there are multiple drivers involved, each driver at fault in a road crash is held partially responsible for the accident.

Under this law, a driver may still recover damages after an Uber accident in Branch since they only share some responsibility. Their compensation amount will reduce relative to the percentage they were responsible for. In cases where there are multiple defendants or vehicles, the responsible party could use this to reduce their liability. Our personal injury lawyers can help make sure that the person or party responsible for your injuries is held accountable.

In Branch, the law allows you to bring a direct action against the at-fault party’s insurance carrier. This is true if the insurance policy was issued within the city or State or the accident occurred here, and the policy covered this risk. You can also bring action against the insurer if the negligent party is bankrupt, insolvent, uninsured, or if the accident involved parents and their children or spouses.

I thank God for Digger & David. I don’t know what we would have done if it hadn’t have been for them.

Is It Advisable To Initiate a Court Process?

Most insurance companies will pressure you to accept an out-of-court settlement soon after an accident. Sadly, some insurance agents at times try to take advantage of your confusion, offering a token compensation in the hope of saving their employer’s money. Often, the offer is much lower than what your attorney could win if they took over your case and guided the negotiations.

Your compensation shouldn’t just cover medical and property damage. You’re entitled to much more, including legal reimbursement, home health care (if necessary), and travel reimbursement (to medical appointments).

Our attorneys at Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers can help you navigate your settlement negotiations. If we’re not satisfied with the settlement deal, we may advise you to file the case for litigation (in court).

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

What’s the Deadline To Claim?

If an Uber accident occurred in Branch, you are granted by the state of Louisiana a period of two years to claim personal injury or property damage, or both. Because of this, claims for property damage or a personal injury after an Uber accident in Branch are time-sensitive. If you don’t meet this deadline, the defendant can file a motion requesting dismissal of your claim against them.

CTA CTA

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.

How Much Can I Be Compensated? Am I Qualified?

Uber accidents that happen in Branch have no cap on the award of damages. This means you may potentially claim any amount of money in compensation for injuries sustained within Branch. However, the exception is that claims that come before the small claims court shouldn’t exceed $3,000.

Essentially, the negligent party’s insurance is obligated to pay the claim up to their policy limitations. Under the underinsured motorist provision, the injured party’s insurance provider may cover any additional amount.

Is it Costly To Hire Your Personal Injury Attorneys?

We don’t charge our clients money that they haven’t received. We believe it’s our business to work with you in your hour of need—not add another bill to the pile. The aftermath of many Uber accidents is often marked with grief, anxiety, worry, and confusion. Having dealt with Uber accident victims for many years, we know this is no time to pressure you with undue financial demands.

This is why the Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers team of personal injury attorneys works on a contingency basis. We take a percentage of the fees after your compensation is paid in full. We will not take a dime unless we win your case.
