ClientWhat Are You Eligible to Receive Compensation For?
You may be able to receive compensation for any financial expense or physical and emotional toll that the accident caused. As your lawyers, we would seek payment for any of these in the form of recoverable damages.
In Louisiana, it’s the obligation of the liable party, meaning whoever caused the accident, to pay the costs of anyone who was a victim. If they are insured, then it’s their insurance company’s obligation.
Examples of Recoverable Damages
You may be able to receive compensation for any accident-related loss. This includes both material costs that have a receipt or bill to verify them and personal costs that reflect how the accident has affected you physically and emotionally.
These can include:
- Property damage
- Medical care
- Medicine
- Pain and Suffering
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Post-traumatic stress
- Lessened quality of life
It can be difficult to see how the accident has affected your life when you’re in the middle of recovering. When you speak to our team, we can listen to your account of the accident and aim to include everything you’ve lost in our demands. We want to get results that actually represent the scope of what you’ve suffered.
I thank God for Digger & David. I don’t know what we would have done if it hadn’t have been for them.
Rick Smith | ClientPotentially Liable Parties in Big Rig Accidents
Truck drivers are often not the only ones who are responsible for collisions. As employees, they may be subject to the influence of their employer. It’s also possible that the truck they use hasn’t been properly maintained. Whatever the case, we will make sure to pursue the person responsible.
Here are some common liable parties in truck accident cases:
- The truck driver
- The trucking company
- The cargo loader
- The truck’s maintenance technician
- The truck manufacturer
- The truck’s parts manufacturer
- A third-party motorist
The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
ClientYou Only Have One Year to File Your Case in Louisiana
The statute of limitations in Louisiana for personal injury and wrongful death cases is one year according to CC Art. 3492 and CC Art. 2315.2, respectively. For personal injury cases, this time begins on the date of the accident. For wrongful death cases, it begins on the date of the loved one’s passing.
It’s important that you file within this amount of time because, if you don’t, you may not be eligible to receive any compensation relating to that particular accident.
Our team can handle this part of your case, too. Deadlines can be complicated, especially if you’re already managing the aftermath of an accident. We would be happy to track these and other requirements for you.
