Steps to Take After a Car Accident 

If you suffer from broken bones after a car accident in Kenner, you should call the local law enforcement authorities. RS 32:398 requires the driver involved in any accident resulting in injuries, including broken bones, to file a report with the local police department if the accident takes place in a city or town. If not, the drivers should file a report with the nearest sheriff or state police.

How a Kenner Broken Bones Lawyer Can Help 

A Kenner broken bones lawyer can assist you with the entire legal process after a car accident, starting at the scene. Your lawyer can visit the scene of the accident and collect evidence to determine who was at fault. Some of the evidence he might collect includes photos of the scene, video footage if available, eyewitness statements, police reports, and more. 

Your lawyer will also collect evidence to support your claim for damages. This evidence can include medical bills, receipts for prescription medication, towing bills, and pictures of your damaged vehicle.

Insurance companies often want to settle quickly and may pressure you to accept a settlement that may be less than you are entitled to receive. A lawyer can handle all communication with the other driver, their legal team, and their insurance company so that you do not feel pushed into accepting a settlement. Your lawyer can negotiate a settlement on your behalf and advise you on what to accept.

Sometimes, we cannot come to a fair settlement with the insurance company. If necessary, we can file a lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.

Estimating the Value of Your Damages After a Car Accident

To successfully claim damages, you need a thorough estimate of your damages. Your lawyer can collect evidence to support your claim and estimate the value of your damages. Some expenses that you may claim include:

  • Medical bills: for doctor’s appointments, X-rays, surgeries, hospital stays, rehabilitative therapies such as occupational or physical therapy, and prescription medications
  • Property damage: for your vehicle and other belongings
  • Accident-related expenses: such as towing bills
  • Lost wages: if your broken bones prevent you from working while you recover
  • Future lost wages: if your broken bones prevent you from continuing in your current profession
  • Pain and suffering: if the accident left you with emotional trauma and physical agony
  • Scarring and Disfigurement: if the accident changed your appearance and/or kept you from completing your everyday tasks

You are not limited to only collecting these damages. In fact, you may qualify for other forms of damages that you may not know about yet. 

To learn more about your legal options after a car accident has left you with broken bones, call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers at (504) 777-7777 today.

Determining Liability After a Car Accident

If one driver causes a car accident, that driver may be financially responsible for expenses incurred by the other parties involved in the accident. The police and insurance companies will investigate the accident to determine who is liable for it. 

Investigators will look for negligent driving behaviors that may have contributed to the accident. Some examples of negligent driving include: 

  • Texting while driving
  • Following too closely
  • Ignoring traffic signals 
  • Speeding

CC Art. 2323 sets up a contributory negligence policy that weighs the contributions of all drivers involved in a car accident. The value of the damages each driver can claim is reduced by his or her contribution to the accident. For example, a driver who is 10% negligent can only claim 90% of his damages.

Insurance companies may use the contributory negligence policy to get out of paying a full settlement. If you were in an accident and the other driver claims that you were partially responsible, you have legal options. 

A Kenner broken bones lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers can conduct an independent investigation and fight for your rights.

Time Limits for Claiming Damages After a Car Accident 

Louisiana limits the amount of time people have to make a claim after a car accident, known as the statute of limitations. CC Art. 3492 sets the deadline for personal injury at two years from the date of the car accident. 

If you wait longer than two years to act, you risk losing your legal right to file your case. However, depending on your case circumstances, the statute of limitations may be extended.

Hire Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers Today

While some broken bones heal quickly with no complications, others have a lasting impact on the victim. The collarbone, ankle, foot, legs, and spinal cord are some of the most common injuries after a car accident. Some broken bones can be easily set, while others require surgery to repair.

Still, you should not have to suffer and pay for the related expenses on your own. A personal injury lawyer with Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers may be able to help you claim financial compensation for your broken bones after a car accident. 

Call our team today at (504) 777-7777 to see how we can help you.
