You Could Recover Damages After a Car Crash in Jennings, LA
At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we do not guarantee that our clients will win a certain amount in a settlement after a car accident. Many factors must be reviewed before we arrive at a settlement figure that we could request for you. The amount you could recover depends on the facts in your case and the extent of your injuries. After we study the situation, we can advise you on what damages are recoverable in your case.
We also may provide a range of awards you could recover. In addition to medical bills and missed or reduced income, you could recover awards for property damage, physical pain and suffering, and more.
Medical Bills, Severity of Injuries Could Lead to Larger Award
In a case where you could be eligible for a six- or seven-figure award, you probably will have quite large medical expenses. After emergency care immediately following the accident, you may require several days or weeks of hospital care and physical therapy. You may be required to receive ongoing treatment for months or years.
Additionally, 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 accident lawyer 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 your accident.

You Have One Year to File a Lawsuit After Your Jennings Car Accident
In Louisiana, negligence victims have up to one year to begin the process of filing a personal injury lawsuit, according to CC Art. 3492. Our car accident 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 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 one year 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.
