We will Pursue Economic and Non-Economic Damages in Your Case

Personal injury victims can seek awards associated with their past and future out-of-pocket expenses, often referred to as economic damages. Economic damages are measurable expenses, which our attorneys can calculate using bills, receipts, and other records. These damages may include compensation for costs related to:

  • Emergency medical services
  • Medical devices and mobility aids
  • Cognitive and physical rehabilitation
  • Lost wages
  • Lost earning capacity
  • Vehicle or personal property damages

Non-economic damages, also known as damages for pain and suffering, compensate victims for their injuries’ physical, mental, and emotional toll. You could receive non-economic damages for conditions like:

  • Chronic pain
  • Loss of a limb or body part
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Loss of mobility
  • Severe scarring

Non-economic damages are less concrete, but our Leesville personal injury lawyers can help you determine an appropriate sum to seek for these losses.


Wrongful Death Compensation in Louisiana

Wrongful death cases fall under the umbrella of personal injury law. CC §2315.1 allows family members to seek the economic and non-economic damages their deceased loved one could have pursued had they lived. This includes the deceased’s:

  • Final medical expenses
  • Burial and funeral costs
  • Property damages

CC §2315.2 gives surviving family members the right to seek additional compensation for damages they sustained because of their loved one’s death. You could be eligible for awards for your:

  • Grief
  • Anguish
  • Loss of support
  • Loss of companionship
  • Lost guidance

Our personal injury lawyers can tell you more about wrongful death compensation and your right to pursue these awards.

I had an amazing experience working with my paralegal, Wesley Guillory, at Laborde Earles Law Firm. Wesley went above and beyond for me throughout the entire process. He was always patient, knowledgeable, and quick to respond to any questions I had. What stood out most was how genuinely he cared. He made sure I understood every step and always made me feel supported and informed.

Wesley’s professionalism and compassion truly set him apart. He made a stressful situation so much easier, and I’m incredibly grateful for all of his hard work. I highly recommend Wesley and the entire Laborde Earles team. They really do put their clients first.

At the very first meeting with Alexis and Danielle they took the time to explain everything to us so that we understood what we were going to go through. They checked in on us to see how things were going with DR appointment and therapy. They checked in on the phone or by text and if I had a question and I was in Lafayette and I would stop by the office one of them would come to answer my questions. I truly appreciate the response and respect that they showed to me and my husband and I would really recommend them to family and friends.

Jourdan is an outstanding paralegal! She is knowledgeable, organized, and truly cares about the clients she works with. Every interaction I’ve had with her has been positive — she takes the time to explain things clearly and makes the process much less stressful. Laborde Earles Law Firm is lucky to have someone like Jourdan on their team. I would highly recommend both Jourdan and the firm to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable legal support.

What is the Value of Your Case?

Every personal injury case is unique. Various factors can impact how much your case is worth, including:

  • The severity of your injuries
  • The extent of your pain and suffering
  • Your wages at the time of your injury
  • How long you have been unable to work/whether you can return to work
  • The cost of your medical bills and your future health care needs
  • The value of your personal property damages

The type of personal injury you suffered could also affect your settlement or verdict amount. For example, RS §5106 caps awards excluding medical bills, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, and property damages at $500,000 in cases against the state. Our lawyers can tell you more about circumstances related to your case and its potential value.

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers has Secured $200 Million-Plus in Settlements and Verdicts for Our Clients

We have achieved success in a wide range of personal injury cases. Our winning record includes:

  • A $23 million wrongful death judgment
  • A $5 million judgment for a paralyzed driver
  • A 1.2 million trial verdict for a motorcycle accident victim
  • $400,000 for a surgical medical malpractice victim

We will Attempt to Settle Your Case Outside of Court

If possible, we will work to settle your case outside of court. Our attorneys are familiar with automobile insurance claims, homeowners and renters insurance claims, medical malpractice insurance claims, and other types of insurance policies that may apply to personal injury cases.

We will investigate your accident and injuries, build a case, file your claim, and negotiate for the best possible outcome for you. We will communicate with insurance companies on your behalf, protecting you from undue pressure or aggressive tactics. However, if an insurance settlement is not an option or the insurance provider denies your claim, we will pursue a lawsuit.

We Want to Help You Take Action Before the Statute of Limitations Expires

It is a good idea to explore your legal options as soon as possible following your injury. It takes time to collect evidence and work through insurance negotiations, and the law limits your time for filing a lawsuit.

According to CC §3492, you have two years to file a personal injury or wrongful death case. Most other legal actions, such as those for medical malpractice or product liability, also are limited to two years. Our Leesville personal injury attorneys can tell you more about how the statute of limitations applies to you.
