Parking lots can be one of the most frustrating places to drive, with many obstacles to look out for. People do not usually expect to be in an accident in a parking lot, but accidents in these spaces can cause serious injuries, even at low speeds.

If you were injured in a parking lot accident, a Meaux parking lot accident lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers may be able to protect your rights to help you pursue compensation for your damages. The responsible party may be liable for your medical bills, lost wages, and more.

For a free case review with a member of our team, call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers today at (318) 777-7777. We may be able to take your parking lot accident case on a contingency-fee-basis with no up-front payments due to start.

How Parking Lot Accidents Happen

Whether you are going to get groceries, picking your kids up from school, or going to your favorite shopping center, accidents can happen in any parking lot. There are not always stop signs or clear indications of right-of-way in these spaces. People may be frustrated, in a rush, or less cautious in parking lots. This does not mean that you should have to pay for the damages their negligence causes, however.

Drivers in a parking lot may be liable for accidents they cause due to their failure to:

  • Obey speed limits
  • Yield the right of way
  • Stop at stop signs
  • And more

Parking lots may also have other factors that increase the risk of an accident. For example, it may be challenging to see other drivers when pulling out into the street. Getting hit going into a parking lot or leaving a parking lot can cause severe damage to you and your vehicle.

Responsible Parties for Parking Lot Accidents

The process of determining who is at fault in a parking lot accident can be complicated.

In some cases, the parking lot owner might be at fault for the car accident. The parking lot owner may have a responsibility to maintain a safe parking environment to prevent potential accidents. If the parking lot accident was due to negligence on the owner’s part, they could be involved in your claim.

Many times, there are disagreements as to who is at fault for the parking lot accident. For example, if two people back up from a parking area at the same time and collide, who is at fault? Depending on the circumstances, both parties could take a percentage of the blame for the accident. This situation can get very technical and challenging to determine precisely what percentage each person should take responsibility for.

Even if you believe you are partially at fault for your accident, Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers may be able to help defend your rights. When we represent you, our firm can collect evidence of the responsible party’s liability, such as:

  • Documentation of the area in the parking lot where the accident occurred
  • Photos, videos, or a police report from the scene of the accident
  • Evidence from your vehicle
  • Witness statements
  • Your medical records
  • Testimony from accident reconstruction experts
  • And more

To receive a free, no-obligation consultation on your case with a representative of our firm, call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers today at (318) 777-7777.

Damages in a Parking Lot Accident Case

A Meaux parking lot accident lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers may be able to help you identify your damages and collect evidence of their value when we represent you. Depending on the details of your accident, recoverable damages may include:

Medical Expenses

Medical expenses can add up quickly, even for minor injuries. Going to the emergency room or doctor’s office is costly on its own. Your injuries may require various tests, treatments, and medications. The price of physical therapy or rehabilitation may also factor into your potential compensation.

Vehicle Damages

If you were driving your vehicle or your parked vehicle was hit, it may have sustained some damage. Vehicle replacement or repairs may be considered when looking at fair compensation.

Loss of Wages

You may have missed work due to your parking lot accident. Any lost wages, benefits, or promotions may be taken into consideration in a car accident case.

Future Loss of Income

If you sustained a severe injury, you might not be able to return to work for some time. Your potential future loss of income may also be considered.

Pain and Suffering

Non-economic damages such as pain and suffering may be available in a personal injury case.

CTA CTA

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