Henry Fatal Car Accident Lawyer

Nothing can compensate you for your lost loved one. Our fatal car accident lawyers in Henry, LA know that. We seek recognition for what your family member’s life represented. Our attorneys pursue the liable party for their negligence, seeking damages that acknowledge the life their actions took. We don’t just seek compensation—we seek justice and closure. 

Assistance Our Lawyers Provide for Surviving Families of Fatal Car Accidents

If you lost a loved one, you can come to us with any issues relating to:

  • Insurance claims
  • Evidence gathering
  • Claim denials
  • Settlement negotiations
  • Liability disputes
  • Lawsuit filings
  • Preparing for trial
  • Your right to bring a wrongful death lawsuit

For example, you may not know if you have a right to pursue compensation. Louisiana law allows spouses, children, parents, siblings, or grandparents to file a wrongful death lawsuit. We can identify which family members have a right to pursue damages and help settle any family conflicts. 

In fact, settling conflict is one of our primary roles, whether it’s with insurance adjusters or liable parties. When you hire a car accident lawyer in Henry, LA, you receive representation for all interactions, from talking to insurance companies to interviewing witnesses to connecting with experts. We take your place in interactions so that you have space to breathe and grieve.

At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, our fatal injury attorneys have 350 years of combined experience. Our team puts that experience to use for clients, obtaining settlements and verdicts that have earned us hundreds of positive reviews. In one wrongful death case, we obtained a $23 million judgment.

When it comes to honoring your loved one’s life and seeking justice for their passing, you deserve a team that knows Louisiana law, fatal auto accident cases, and what families should receive for their losses. Our fatal car accident attorneys can put their experience to use for you starting today.

Our Fatal Auto Accident Attorneys in Henry, LA Provide Practical Assistance

Although the big picture of your case is about receiving a settlement or verdict, we understand that your everyday reality is also challenging. So, we help with:

  • Taking calls from insurance adjusters and attorneys
  • Responding to emails on your behalf
  • Replying to your calls and emails in a timely manner
  • Helping you receive care for your own accident-related injuries
  • Keeping you updated on our plans, next steps, and other logistics
  • Answering any questions you may have, 24/7

You shouldn’t have to deal with the daily challenges of a wrongful death case. We’ll handle it all for you.

What If You Need Help Now

While many cases settle out of court, they can still take time. After all, the statute of limitations in Louisiana is typically one year from your loved one’s passing, according to CC Art. 2315.2. Although we use that time to move your case forward through evidence gathering and negotiation, we know that a year is a long time when you have financial concerns. 

If you need assistance with bills, lost income, or other losses immediately, we can connect you to the resources you may need while we are working on your case. Our slogan is “on my side” for a reason.

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

We Pursue Damages for Fatal Car Accident Victims and Their Families

Damages could cover any costs related to the accident, including:

  • Emergency care expenses
  • Surgeries and other medical intervention
  • Hospice and end-of-life healthcare
  • Funeral and burial costs

In the early days, you may not realize the full scope of what your loved one’s passing will cost. The cost of services, memorials, and burials can add up quickly, as the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) notes.

Don’t settle for less by agreeing to an early offer that doesn’t consider all these expenses. We can review any settlement offers and ensure they reflect reality. 

Personalized Damages for Personal Losses

The hole left behind by the deceased is represented by more than just expenses. We can pursue compensation that recognizes the loss of:

  • Income
  • Guidance
  • Support
  • Companionship

We can consult your family, your loved one’s employer, and financial experts to understand the income the deceased would have provided. For other forms of damages, like loss of parental guidance or spousal companionship, what we pursue is based on your relationship and bond with your lost loved one. 

If You Were Injured in the Same Accident

Our personal injury lawyers can assist you if you were injured as well. You could receive compensation to cover:

  • Medical and treatment bills
  • Mental health support
  • Prescriptions and equipment
  • Lost income
  • Reduced earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Diminished quality of life 

If you were a victim of the same motor vehicle accident, our fatal auto accident attorneys in Henry, LA can evaluate and pursue both cases.

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

Our Fatal Accident Lawyers Tie Evidence to Negligent Parties

You may not know what happened to cause the car accident. Making matters worse is when adjusters or negligent parties attempt to avoid liability or put blame on the deceased. 

Don’t give up in the face of these attempts. We can work to draw a line connecting negligent actions to the fatal accident through:

  • Evidence like police reports, photos, debris, traffic camera footage, eyewitness testimony, and video
  • Medical information like doctor’s notes, paperwork, records, imaging, and attempts at medical intervention
  • Expert consultation like accident reconstruction, analysis of the scene, and testimony from doctors, mechanics, actuaries, economists, and other specialists

We can even pursue specific information that could shed light on what happened. For instance, if an eyewitness testifies that the other driver was texting while driving, we can work to obtain their phone records, texts, or social media posts from that time.

If someone is unfairly blaming your loved one or using other tactics to avoid providing compensation, Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers can stand up for you and your lost family member. 

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.
