ClientDamages 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
I thank God for Digger & David. I don’t know what we would have done if it hadn’t have been for them.
Rick Smith | ClientHow 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.
The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.

ClientDeadlines 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 Art. 3492, victims generally only have up to one year 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.
