You Could Recover Damages After a Car Crash in Jennings, LA

Our legal team does not guarantee that you will win a certain amount in a settlement after an auto collision, but we will try our best to help you get the maximum amount. Many factors must be reviewed before we arrive at a settlement figure that we can request for you. The amount you could recover depends on the extent of your injuries, property damage, and other case-specific elements.

Depending on the details of your claim, you could receive the following damages:

  • Property damage
  • Medical bills
  • The cost of future medical care
  • Lost wages
  • Loss of earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of consortium

After we study the situation, we can advise on what damages are recoverable in your case. You can schedule a free initial consultation to receive personalized legal advice. During our first meeting, we review the details of your case, provide our professional legal advice on your available options for damages, and answer your immediate concerns.

Factors That Could Lead to Larger Award

In a case where you could be eligible for a six- or seven-figure award, you probably have a severe auto accident injury and face steep medical expenses. After emergency care immediately following the crash, you may require several days or weeks of hospital care and physical therapy. You may need to receive ongoing treatment for months or years.

If you suffer a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), you may miss several weeks or more of work. You also may never be able to work in the same job you had before the crash, leaving you with a lifetime of reduced earnings. You can attempt to recover your lost wages and other work-related benefits.

Our Louisiana car crash attorneys will work toward helping you win a judgment for pain and suffering as well. If your injuries significantly reduce your quality of life, we will seek the maximum award we can that will help you recover financially from the car crash.

You Have Two Years to File a Lawsuit After Your Jennings Car Accident

In Louisiana, negligence victims have up to two years to file a personal injury lawsuit, according to CC Art. 3492. Our personal injury attorneys in Jennings will ensure your case meets the state’s required deadline if you hire us early enough to work on your case after the crash.

Should your loved one suffer a fatality in a car crash that is another driver’s fault, you have the right to file a wrongful death action. Our Jennings wrongful death attorneys will keep your case moving forward, even when the insurer tries to stall. Louisiana statute CC Art. 2315.2 gives families up to two years after the fatality to start the process of filing a case.

It is important to meet these deadlines. If you miss them, you likely will be barred from pursuing financial recovery from the liable party. This also means you will have the sole responsibility of paying your accident-related bills on your own. The sooner you reach out to our personal injury law firm, the more time we will have to work on your case.
