Our Personal Injury Team Has Helped Clients After Various Types of Accidents

You may not even know if negligence caused or contributed to your accident-related injuries. It’s worth reaching out to a lawyer to get to the bottom of it, especially if you are facing medical bills, lost income, and other losses in the aftermath. The team at Laborde Earles consists of a variety of lawyers who can help you, such as:

  • Car accident lawyers
  • Truck accident lawyers
  • Motorcycle accident lawyers
  • Maritime accident lawyers
  • Workers’ compensation lawyers
  • Dog bite lawyers
  • Product liability lawyers

Even if you do not see your specific accident listed here, we can still discuss your options during a free consultation. You may discover that you stand to recover more than you think you do. Once we discuss your case, we can determine whether to file an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit. We tailor our legal strategy to suit the unique needs of each client. You can expect nothing less than client-focused legal services when you come to Laborde Earles. We can guide you through the legal process with compassionate and responsive legal care.

Your Injuries May Warrant Significant Compensation

Every personal injury case is different, but you want to make sure you seek maximum compensation to cover your losses. This is why it’s important to accurately document your medical bills, receipts, and your doctor’s prognosis. Our Saint Martinville personal injury lawyers can compile this evidence to support your claim. We may also gather your wage statements and even consult expert witnesses if necessary. We can go after the following personal injury damages as they apply to your case:

  • Current medical expenses, such as MRI and CT scans, emergency room care, ambulance transportation, and surgeries
  • Ongoing medical care, such as medication, specialists, and physical therapy sessions
  • Pain and suffering
  • Reduced quality of life
  • Lost income, including benefits, bonuses, and paid time off
  • Reduced earning ability if you cannot return to work or earn the same income due to your injuries
  • Property damage, such as vehicle damage
  • Disability
  • Scarring and disfigurement

After any type of accident, it’s important that you have access to the medical care you need. That’s why our legal team always fights for maximum compensation. Once you accept a settlement offer, you cannot seek additional damages afterward. Our personal injury attorneys in Saint Martinville are dedicated to seeking the awards you deserve and nothing less. Call us today to get started on your case. We can assess your damages and explore whether an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit would be the appropriate approach for your case.

  • Recovery for funeral services and arrangements
  • Their end-of-life medical bills
  • Your loved one’s income they contributed to the family
  • Awards for their pain and suffering

Our Saint Martinville Personal Injury Team Can Help You Meet Your Legal Deadline

Unlike other states, Louisiana imposes a strict two-year deadline for filing personal injury lawsuits under La.Civ.Code art 3492. Two years after your accident, your doctors may still be determining the extent of your injuries. Don’t worry. You simply need to have your lawsuit filed by the statute of limitations. Our legal team can help you with that.

Still, it takes time to build a case, and we may be negotiating with an insurer for quite some time. We can keep our eye on the statutory clock and take legal action if an insurer refuses to offer a fair settlement. In some cases, we may even suggest beginning with a lawsuit.

Protect your case by contacting us as soon as possible after an accident. This can help jump-start the legal process. We will work efficiently, and since we do not charge upfront fees, we can get started on your case immediately after you call.
