How Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers Can Prove Your Case
Before we can pursue the at-fault party for compensation, we need to prove your case. Here are some of the steps we can take to do so:
Request the Accident Report
RS 32:398 makes reporting an accident mandatory if it resulted in an injury, fatality, or $500 or more in apparent damage.
We will request a copy of your accident report because it tells the story of your collision in an impartial manner that may help establish its causes and contributing factors. This report may include:
- Contact information for the at-fault driver
- Contact information for their insurer
- Accident witness details and statements
- Potential driver distractions or impairments
It may also contain police-generated photos, diagrams, notes, and other evidence that point to the cause of the accident. If you, bystanders, or witnesses took additional photos of videos on your smartphone, be sure to inform our team.
Our goal is to build a comprehensive evidence file that bolsters and supports your right to compensation.
Prove the Cause of Your Accident and Injuries
If you were injured in a motorcycle accident, your crash report can help prove whether the accident was caused by:
- Driver error
- Motorcycle defects
- Road conditions
- Alcohol or drug impairment
In addition to proving the at-fault driver’s financial liability, uncovering the cause of the accident might help explain the severity of your injuries. Our team can work with you and investigate to prove the cause and financial consequences of your injuries and property damage.

ClientRecoverable Damages in a Motorcycle Accident Case
Because the financial consequences of a motorcycle accident in Harvey might be extensive, our team helps you fight for the financial compensation you may be entitled to due to negligence.
Your recoverable damages may include:
- Medical bills
- Motorcycle damage
- Lasting impairments
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma
- Loss of income
Our team can work with you to carefully calculate the value of your injuries and of the financial expenses and losses that stem from your injuries.
Track Your Medical Records and Bills
Because medical records and bills might come from EMTs, emergency rooms, treating physicians, and health care facilities, it might be challenging to gather all the bills from so many sources.
Our team can help compile and organize your medical records and bills to prove:
- The extent and degree of your injuries
- The physical and financial cost of your injuries
- The cost and extent of your future health care needs
Because a resolution to your lawsuit may account for your current and anticipated medical care, it is important to ensure all relevant medical bills are accounted for before attempting to resolve your lawsuit.
With guidance and direction from our case assessment team, your accident report and medical records can help form the basis of your personal injury lawsuit.
Track Injury-Related Expenses and Losses
In addition to the long and short-term costs of your medical and rehabilitative care, you may be entitled to recover the costs your injuries generate. These may include:
- Income losses, including full- and part-time wages
- The cost of restoring your motorcycle to its pre-collision condition
- The cost of replacing your motorcycle is if it deemed a total loss
The Harvey motorcycle accident lawyers on our team can help you include these costs in your compensation lawsuit. Get the right value assigned to your case before negotiating for a settlement or going to court.

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 | ClientAct Quickly When Seeking Financial Compensation
As important as it is to accurately value your lawsuit, it is equally important to stay on top of the timing of your lawsuit. If a motorcycle accident resulted in injuries to you or someone you love, you generally have a year to file a personal injury lawsuit, according to CC Art. 3492.
Similarly, you generally have a year to file a wrongful death lawsuit for the loss of a loved one, according to CC Art. 2315.2.
If the statute of limitations expires, your lawsuit might be at risk of immediate dismissal. With sufficient notice, our legal team can help ensure compliance with the filing deadline and preserve your right to seek compensation.
The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
