We Represent Eye Injury Victims in Marksville

Our personal injury team handles cases involving vision loss and other eye injuries. If another party’s actions caused your accident and loss of sight, an eye injury lawyer in Marksville, LA, from our team is here to help. You can count on us. We are Louisiana attorneys that care.

Our attorneys work on cases as one big team. You will have an attorney and support staff to contact with questions, but your case will benefit from the over 350 years of combined personal injury experience of all our professionals. You will truly have our entire firm on your side.

Damages Recoverable in a Marksville Eye Injury Claim or Lawsuit

As you already know, eye injuries can affect your life in many eyes. Depending on their severity (and if there is lasting damage), you may require specialized treatments, mobility aids, and additional support for daily activities. These things can get expensive.

We understand that compensation can’t undo your eye injury. Yet, it can offer much-needed relief. A settlement can account for:

  • Medical bills, current and future
  • Ongoing care and support costs
  • Income lost while undergoing treatment and recovering
  • Diminished ability to work and earn, if there are lasting effects
  • Property damages (if you were in a car accident, for instance)
  • Related out-of-pocket expenses, such as traveling to see a specialist
  • Pain and suffering
  • Other non-economic damages, such as loss of enjoyment of life

How Our Marksville Eye Injury Attorneys Secure Compensation for Clients

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers handles personal injury cases every day. These cases include injuries ranging from relatively minor to catastrophic. To us, each case is important, and each client needs compensation to move forward with their life.

We work hard to develop a solid case to support every claim. We gather evidence to tell a compelling tale about what occurred, who is liable, and why our client deserves a payout that covers their expenses and losses. With the right evidence, we convince the insurance carrier to pay or show the jury why they should award fair compensation.

There are generally two ways that our lawyers recover compensation for our clients:

  • Filing an insurance claim with the at-fault party’s insurance carrier and negotiating a fair settlement agreement; or
  • Filing a personal injury lawsuit in an Avoyelles Parish civil court, taking the case to trial, and asking the jury to award fair compensation

A negotiated settlement is most likely. Even when we sue, we often continue negotiations with the insurer. A settlement could still occur until the trial ends and the jury goes to deliberations. Sometimes, suing makes it more likely that the insurance carrier will increase its offer, and we will reach a fair agreement.

Negligence Accidents and Eye Injuries in Marksville, LA

Our vision loss lawyers handle various accidents that could cause eye injuries and blindness. These include:

  • Traffic accidents
  • Falls
  • Fires
  • Dog bites
  • Construction accidents
  • Other premises liability cases

We are familiar with many injuries involving the eyes and brain that affect vision. We also have a network of experts we call on to help us better understand these injuries, prognosis, necessary treatment, and the cost of future treatment and care.

We support claimants suffering from:

  • Corneal abrasions
  • Injuries to the iris
  • Bleeding in the eye (hyphema)
  • Lacerations to the eye
  • Other facial trauma and eye socket fractures
  • Foreign objects in the eye
  • Traumatic brain injuries that affect vision

We understand that each case’s outcome greatly depends on the severity of the injuries, the individual health of the victim, the treatment they receive, and many other factors. We know there is no one-size-fits-all approach to these cases, so we handle each based on its own circumstances and facts.

Deadlines Apply, So Contact Our Team as Soon as Possible

If you have vision loss or other issues after a negligence accident in Avoyelles Parish, you should consider partnering with an attorney as soon as possible. We provide free consultations but need to know about your case quickly to ensure we meet all applicable deadlines.

Louisiana has one of the shortest statutes of limitations for filing an injury lawsuit in the nation. Under CC 3493.1, victims generally only have up to two years to sue. However, exceptions exist, and you might have longer if you suffered permanent injuries. Still, getting started as soon as your injuries allow you to call us is a good idea. Evidence in these cases can disappear quickly, so we need to identify, gather, and preserve it as soon as we can.

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.
