ClientWe Fight for the Compensation You Deserve
Everyone we represent is unique, and no two accidents are the same. We take the time to ensure we understand exactly what you have been through and how your injuries have affected your home and work life. This way, we can evaluate your current and ongoing financial damages with the confidence that comes from many years of prior experience helping people with their personal injury cases.
Whatever your circumstances, our Forest Hill car accident lawyer will fight to help you recover the compensation that is right for your situation, which could include the following types of financial damages:
- Lost wages and other work-related benefits, such as pensions
- Future compensation if your injuries prevent you from returning to work or affect your ability to work
- Medical bills, treatment costs, and rehabilitation costs
- Reimbursement for specialist equipment, home care, or adaptations to your home or vehicle as part of your ongoing care needs
- Pain and suffering damages for physical and emotional symptoms resulting from the accident
- Lost or damaged property
In fatal accidents, we represent surviving families in wrongful death actions. While no amount of money can make up for the loss of a loved one, it can provide a vital financial safety net to help families pay for medical expenses, funeral and burial costs, and loss of financial support.
We know this is an incredibly difficult time for you, and we are here to lend our strength and support by managing everything you need for the legal process.
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 | ClientWe Only Recover Our Fees When We Obtain a Favorable Result
The financial toll of a car accident can significantly affect you and your family, so we cover the cost of building and pursuing your case. We will never ask you to pay anything up front and only recover our fees when we obtain a settlement or court verdict in your favor. This is known as a contingency fee arrangement and another way we strive to make things a little easier for you.
The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
ClientYour Needs and Well-Being Are Our Top Priority
At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, ensuring your needs are met and representing your best interests is our top priority. For example, you may receive an early settlement offer from the at-fault driver’s insurance company. While this may seem like a positive and prompt resolution to your case, the amount may not be enough to cover all of your financial damages. Insurance companies rarely begin settlement negotiations with their best offer.
Let us put our knowledge of the law and previous experience to work for you to ensure you get an appropriate settlement that covers your current needs as well as your ongoing needs in the future.
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.
ClientThere Is Limited Time to Make a Personal Injury Claim
Under Louisiana law, injured parties generally have one year from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit or wrongful death action (per CC Art. 3492 and CC Art. 2315.2, respectively). Seeking legal advice sooner rather than later can be beneficial. Early intervention also means your lawyer can get to work quickly and gather and preserve vital evidence to support your case before it is lost, forgotten, or destroyed.
