Recoverable Damages in a Marksville, LA, Dump Truck Accident Case?

Dump trucks are massive vehicles that can cause major accidents on construction sites and other industrial areas. Such accidents can even be fatal.

As a result of your or your loved one’s accident, you may have major physical, financial, and emotional damages, or your family may even have wrongful death damages. In any case, a truck accident lawyer from our firm can recover financial and non-financial damages for you, such as: 

  • Medical and rehabilitation bills
  • Lost income (past, present, and future)
  • Lost or reduced earning ability
  • Property damage (repair costs)

Permanent disability

Wrongful Death Damages

If our Marksville wrongful death lawyer takes your case, they can seek these damages on your behalf:

Financial Damages

As a result of your injuries or your loss, your family may have incurred funeral and burial expenses, medical bills, and lost income, among others. You can claim these damages and costs for various therapies and vehicle repairs. 

Mental and Emotional Damages

These could be mental and emotional trauma due to the incident or your loss, or other intangible (non-monetary) suffering. If you lost your partner, you could claim related damages, such as loss of spousal love, and if you also have children, you can claim loss of parental love.

Why Should I Hire a Marksville Dump Truck Accident Lawyer?

There are many reasons to hire an accident attorney from our firm. For one, our attorney understands accident cases like yours, so they know how to manage your case. Additionally, an attorney from our firm can:

  • List your damages: Your lawyer can help to identify certain damages you may not know you can claim, such as certain mental damages.
  • Evaluate your damages: This will help you recover fair amounts for your damages and ensure you seek compensation for all losses you endured.
  • Establish liability: An attorney can identify all parties who potentially owe you damages and show how their negligence caused the accident and your injuries.
  • Pursue compensation from multiple parties: If more than one party contributed to the incident, your lawyer will pursue damages from each of them.
  • Negotiate a settlement for you: Your lawyer can negotiate with an insurer for your compensation. 
  • Prepare and file a lawsuit: An attorney can seek damages against the liable party at trial if they cannot settle your case outside of court.
  • Corroborate your case: If your lawyer takes your case to court, your lawyer can go in with experts, like a truck accident reconstructionist, who can provide a professional opinion that supports your case.

Finally, your Marksville truck accident lawyers can leverage the 350 years of experience our legal team shares. To date, we have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for clients.

Who Is Liable in a Marksville Dump Truck Accident Case?

Before you can claim your damages, your lawyer must identify the liable party in your case. This could be the dump truck driver, the construction company the driver works for, or even the dump truck manufacturer. Multiple parties could even be liable.

To identify the liable party or parties, your lawyer will seek out evidence of their liability. This could be:

  • Camera footage from an on-site camera
  • Data from the dump truck’s event data recorder
  • The vehicle’s recent repair/maintenance logs
  • The driver’s work logs or work history
  • The company’s communications with the truck driver
  • A witness’ account of the accident
  • Your cell phone photos of the accident scene

Once your lawyer identifies the liable party or parties, they must prove their liability for the accident and injuries. This will mean establishing:

  • How the party or parties owed you a duty of care
  • How the party or parties breached this duty of care
  • How the breach of duty caused the accident
  • That the accident caused compensatory damages

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.

When Should You Hire an Injury Lawyer After a Dump Truck Accident?

You should hire a personal injury lawyer from our firm if you or a loved one suffered any injuries after your accident. Without a lawyer, you may not be able to get all your due damages and fair amounts for them.

Also, you should aim to hire your lawyer right away. This way, you can maintain the ability to sue the other party (according to CC 3493.1), which you and your lawyer may want or need to do in your case. Per Louisiana law, you generally have two years from the accident date to sue for damages.

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.
