How Liability Is Determined in a Car Accident Case

While insurance companies determine fault and conduct an investigation, enlisting help from a personal injury attorney ensures that your rights are protected and represented.

Drivers have a duty and legal obligation to follow driving laws. When an accident occurs, determining the at-fault party is essential to requesting and receiving adequate compensation for damages. The at-fault party may have to pay related medical bills, vehicle repair costs, and lost wages.

Examples of negligence that causes car accidents include:

  • Speeding
  • Drunk driving
  • Distracted driving
  • Improper lane changes
  • Failure to yield

Louisiana is a comparative fault state (CC 2323), which means that even if you are partially responsible for the accident, you are still able to collect compensatory damages.

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers understands the complexities involved with car accidents and is dedicated to representing your interests. Call us today at (337)777-7777 for a free consultation to discuss your case.

Your Attorney Can Help You Fight for Car Accident Damages

Car accidents can cause physical and psychological injuries that can result in temporary or permanent disability. If you sustained a serious injury, you may have to take a significant amount of time off from work while you recover. Car accidents can also lead to significant financial costs, especially when it comes to medical treatment and repairing or replacing your vehicle.

Many times, payouts from your insurance company are not enough to cover all expenses related to serious car accidents. Your lawyer can help you file third-party claims against the at-fault driver to fight for all the compensation you deserve.

Types of Recoverable Damages

There are generally two types of damages you can claim after experiencing a car accident: economic and noneconomic. A Henry car accident lawyer can pursue both types of claims.

Economic damages are actual expenses sustained due to the accident, such as:

  • Medical bills including hospitalization, emergency transport, surgery, and treatment
  • Lost wages if you have to take time off work to recover
  • Loss of earning potential if your injuries limit your future earnings
  • Vehicle repair or replacement

Noneconomic costs can include:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Loss of consortium
  • Loss of affection and/or companionship

While insurance companies may offer quick settlements and payouts, working with an attorney helps ensure that you receive the proper amount of compensation related to your accident, injuries, and expenses.

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

Louisiana Car Accident Statute of Limitations

In Louisiana, you have two years from the date of your car accident to file a claim related to economic and/or noneconomic damages (CC 3492).

Because the statute of limitations is short, it is important to contact an attorney as soon as you can following your accident. Failing to file a claim within two years can prevent you from receiving compensation.

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

A Lawyer Can Help Prove Liability & Damages in Your Car Accident Case

It is essential to keep all documents and bills related to your accident. Having to track down extra or additional copies can delay your case. Your attorney can help you retrieve evidence and present it to support your case. Examples of evidence for a car accident case include:

  • Police or accident reports
  • Eyewitness contact information
  • Photographs of the accident scene
  • Medical bills and records
  • Proof of your lost wages

Your attorney can also help you secure testimony from field experts who can help prove your case. For example, your lawyer may enlist the help of accident reconstruction specialists to prove fault or medical experts who can speak to the effects of your injuries on your life.

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.
