  • Lasting Disfigurement
Meaux Big Rig Accident Lawyer

If you, a loved one, or a passenger in your car were injured in a collision with a large or commercial truck, you could be entitled to financial compensation. At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we can help you file a claim or lawsuit. With our legal guidance and support, we can identify the at-fault party and hold them financially responsible for your injuries and related expenses.

You do not have to build your case or prove your right to recover damages. Our Meaux big rig accident lawyer will investigate and help you prove the negligence that caused your accident. We will also handle the insurance company for you and negotiate a fair and appropriate settlement. We will review your case at no cost and fight for the best possible outcome.

How Our Law Firm Will Prove Liability in Your Big Rig Accident Case

When our law firm pursues compensation for you, we start by collecting evidence that proves the at-fault party’s negligence, carelessness, or recklessness. Then, our lawyers will build a strong evidence file for you that starts with your police report.

It will tell us:

  • The causes and contributing factors that led to your accident
  • Critical contact information, including insurance companies
  • Notes and diagrams from the investigating officer
  • The degree of readily identifiable injuries
  • Damage and points of impact on both vehicles

Our goal is to prove the four required elements of negligence that entitle you to hold the at-fault party financially liable for the accident.

Duty of Care

A duty of care requires the at-fault party to act reasonably to protect others. For drivers, that means operating their vehicles safely and in line with the road rules.

Breach of Duty

Breach means the at-fault party did not act safely and responsibly. For example, a driver can breach their duty of care by driving while distracted or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Causation

Our law firm’s investigation will document a connection between the at-fault party’s actions and your accident. It will also prove your injuries directly resulted from the accident you were involved in.

Damages

In personal injury cases, damages are the financial expenses (medical bills, for example) and losses (lost wages) that result from the accident and your injuries.

Our Big Rig Accident Attorney Serving Meaux, LA, Will Identify All Liable Parties

Unlike a car accident, in a trucking accident, there could be more than one party whose negligence contributed to the accident. Potentially liable parties can include:

  • The truck driver
  • His employer
  • Cargo loaders
  • Truck manufacturer
  • Parts manufacturer
  • Maintenance facility
  • Repair facility

Our investigation will uncover the at-fault party or parties in your case and pursue every available avenue of compensation.

Evidence That Supports Your Right to Financial Compensation

The evidence we collect in your case will tell the story of your accident. It will also identify all areas of negligence that led to the accident. The case file we build for you will contain the following:

  • Medical records and bills
  • Employment and salary records
  • Truck accident report
  • Accident scene and injury photos
  • Lay and expert witness statements

Our big rig accident lawyer serving Meaux, LA, will build your case file. Then, while you concentrate on your physical recovery, we work on your financial recovery.

We Pursue Wrongful Death Damages for Families Who Lost a Loved One

Losing a family member can leave you stressed, reeling, and unsure of what to do next. We can help. Your family has our most heartfelt condolences and our commitment to hold the at-fault party accountable.

Recoverable wrongful death damages include:

  • Funeral and burial expenses
  • Loss of financial support

  • Loss of companionship
  • Loss of consortium
  • Loss of guidance and direction

Our big rig accident lawyers will carefully document your family’s losses. In addition, we will ensure the appropriate family member files a wrongful death action and ensure your case is filed on time.

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers Will File Your Lawsuit on Time

Most cases like yours will be settled out of court. If yours cannot be, the state limits the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit depending on the outcome of your accident. According to:

  • CC Art. 3492, you generally have two years from the accident date to meet the personal injury statute of limitations.
  • CC Art. 2315.2, you generally have two years from a loved one’s demise to meet the wrongful death statute of limitations.

Our big rig accident attorneys know how important it is to comply with the statute of limitations. The sooner you get our team involved in your case, the more time we have to conduct a thorough investigation and ensure your lawsuit is filed within the allotted time.

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