We Can Help You Determine How Much Compensation to Pursue

Calculating your damages can get complex. If you decide to work with our firm, we can help you categorize and calculate your damages in accordance with Louisiana law. Some of these damages may include:

Medical Expenses

Our team can help you recover compensation for all medical expenses related to your accident injury, including medical bills, emergency services costs, surgery costs, and future medical treatment. We ensure that you receive the necessary care without shouldering the financial burden.

Lost Wages and Income

If your injury has caused you to miss work or rendered you unable to work temporarily or permanently, we will fight to recover compensation for your lost wages and income. This includes both past and future earnings, ensuring you are financially supported during your recovery and beyond.

Pain and Suffering

We understand the physical and emotional pain that accompanies personal injuries. Our attorneys work to recover compensation for your pain and suffering, accounting for the physical discomfort, emotional distress, and reduced quality of life resulting from the accident.

Property Damage

In cases involving motor vehicle accidents or property-related incidents, we help you recover compensation for the repair or replacement of damaged property, such as vehicles or personal belongings. Our goal is to ensure that you are fully compensated for all losses suffered as a result of the injury.

Loss of Consortium

If your injury has affected your relationships with family members or partners, resulting in a loss of companionship, support, or services, we can help you recover damages for loss of consortium. This compensation acknowledges the impact your injury has had on your loved ones and seeks to restore the relationships affected.

Punitive Damages

If there was overly egregious or negligent behavior, punitive damages may be given to punish the responsible party and discourage similar conduct in the future. Our attorneys diligently pursue punitive damages when appropriate, seeking justice for our clients and holding negligent parties accountable.

No matter the extent of your damages, our dedicated team is committed to maximizing your recovery and ensuring that you receive fair compensation for all losses incurred due to the injury.

Your Personal Injury Case Has a Time Limit, So Don’t Wait

The statute of limitations is a legal time limit within which a person must file a lawsuit or bring legal action against another party.

Once this time limit expires, the individual loses the right to sue for that particular claim.

Statutes of limitations vary depending on the type of case and jurisdiction, ranging from a few years to several decades. They are designed to ensure that legal actions are brought promptly, allowing for the timely resolution of disputes and preventing the indefinite threat of litigation hanging over individuals and businesses.

Louisiana Civil Code (CC) §3492 sets the general legal deadline to submit a personal injury lawsuit at two years from the date of injury in most cases. By contacting Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers soon after your accident, we can help you file your lawsuit on time.

At the very first meeting with Alexis and Danielle they took the time to explain everything to us so that we understood what we were going to go through. They checked in on us to see how things were going with DR appointment and therapy. They checked in on the phone or by text and if I had a question and I was in Lafayette and I would stop by the office one of them would come to answer my questions. I truly appreciate the response and respect that they showed to me and my husband and I would really recommend them to family and friends.
