Highway 167 Truck Accident Lawyer

In addition to seeing thousands of drivers every day, Highway 167 through Lafayette, LA is also a major thoroughfare for commercial trucking. Unfortunately, the high volume of private vehicles and commercial trucks means motorists using the highway are at increased risk of truck accidents. The massive size of trucks in relation to private passenger vehicles and the speed at which vehicles travel on the freeway means that truck accidents can have serious consequences for accident victims. 

If you’ve been injured in a truck accident you didn’t cause on Highway 167, you have the right to demand damages from the at-fault party. Our Highway 167 truck accident lawyer can help you hold the at-fault trucker and their employer accountable. Laborde Earles wants to get you the compensation you deserve for your losses. Our firm has been standing up for accident victims for more than 20 years. 

How Can Our Highway 167 Truck Accident Lawyer Help You Seek Justice?

At Laborde Earles, helping our clients get compensated for their damages is only one part of what we do. We focus on helping you put your life back in order, and that means handling the hard parts of your case so you can worry about healing from your injuries. Even though trucking companies are required to have liability insurance that covers them in the event of an accident, their insurance companies can be difficult to deal with.

Once we take your case, our Lafayette truck accident lawyer will act as your representative and protect your best interests.

We will negotiate with the insurer (or the trucking company) to try and reach a settlement that fairly compensates you. If that’s not possible, our team, which has over 350 years of combined legal experience, will prepare a trial strategy and pursue justice for you in court. We will take special care to keep you informed about the process and help you understand what to expect. That’s our promise to you as a client.

What Damages Do You Demand in Highway 167 Truck Accidents?

The size of most commercial vehicles means there is rarely such a thing as a “minor” truck accident, especially one that took place on a highway. Because of that, the economic losses truck accident victims suffer can be immense. Examples of the economic losses truck accident victims incur include:

  • Medical bills (e.g., surgery, ongoing therapy, home care)
  • Lost income
  • Cost of repairing damaged vehicles or replacing vehicles that were declared as total losses
  • Cost of transporting accident victims to medical treatment

These economic costs are not nearly the extent of the damages for many truck accident victims. You can also recover compensation for the non-economic, or intangible losses you suffered because of the Highway 167 crash. Your settlement may cover damages such as: 

  • Pain and suffering 
  • Lost enjoyment of life 
  • Reduced quality of life 
  • Mental anguish 
  • Scarring and disfigurement

You are entitled to demand compensation for both your economic and non-economic damages after your truck accident. Laborde Earles will dedicate our energy and experience to help you seek compensation for all the losses you suffered. Call a Lafayette personal injury lawyer today to schedule your free consultation.

Are Highway 167 Truck Accident Lawyers Expensive?

If you’re the victim of a Highway 167 truck accident, the last thing Laborde Earles wants you worried about is legal fees.

That means you can avail yourself of all our legal resources and experience without paying any money upfront. 

Your primary concern should be making a full recovery, and we want to help you do that by alleviating any extra stress. That includes our bill. That’s why we won’t charge you any fees unless we win a judgment or collect a settlement for you. 

Laborde Earles Offers Free Consultations To Discuss Your Truck Accident Case

If you’re in the hospital after a truck accident or home recovering from one, it’s likely you are looking for some advice about how to handle your case. When you reach out to us for a free consultation, we can provide questions for your answers such as:

  • Do I have to take the insurance company’s settlement offer?
  • What should I do if the truck driver or trucking company refuses liability?
  • How much is my case worth?
  • Should I talk to the truck company’s insurer?

We can advise you on how to handle insurance communications and explain which damages you may be able to recover. Don’t hesitate to reach out and speak to a member of our team.

Who Is Liable in Highway 167 Truck Accident Cases?

Most truck drivers are employed by trucking companies either directly, or as a subcontractor. That means although the truck driver may have caused the accident, their employer must assume liability for the driver’s negligence. However, driver negligence is not the only potential cause of truck accidents. Faulty equipment such as malfunctioning tires or brakes can also be a cause of truck accidents. 

What this means for accident victims is that figuring out who to demand damages from can be complicated. Our highway truck accident lawyer can help you do this. We have the resources to search corporate databases and work through the chain of liability in any truck accident case. Whether the liability lies with the trucking company alone or is shared by the truck manufacturers, we will hold anyone whose negligence contributed to your accident accountable.

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.
