Terrytown Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

A pedestrian accident in Terrytown, LA, can injure you, leaving you with expensive medical bills and missing income, which can affect your livelihood. You may also suffer trauma and property damage. Filing a claim against the party liable for the accident can help you recover damages.

A Terrytown pedestrian accident lawyer with Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers will gather all the documents to build your case for damages. With more than 350 years of experience on our team and $250 million recovered for our clients, we want to help you get the compensation you need after your accident. We can talk with you about your legal options during a free consultation today.

Determining Liability After a Terrytown Pedestrian Accident

Our Terrytown lawyer will identify fault by studying the report that police filed at the scene. This document will help the attorney determine what led to the crash based on statements by witnesses and all involved parties. It also allows them to assess if the motorist that hit you was driving carelessly.

Video footage can help our Terrytown lawyer establish liability. We will visit buildings near the scene to determine if the cameras recorded the incident. Besides, we can obtain court orders to get footage from homeowners and property managers.

More ways our lawyer may determine fault for a pedestrian accident are:

  • Interviewing witnesses
  • Analyzing images captured at the scene
  • Working with an accident reconstructionist

A medical record can help our attorney assess liability for specific injuries. This file may provide information linking the sustained physical harm to a particular impact. It may also connect mental health conditions you want the liable party to reimburse you for after the traumatic incident.

The Elements of a Terrytown Pedestrian Accident Claim

Our Terrytown lawyer will help you claim damages by establishing four elements. We will first prove that a particular party had a duty of care. After that, we can present evidence showing how the other party breached their duty. A motorist driving in the wrong lane and a trucking company that hired an unqualified motorist are examples of parties who breached their duty of care to keep other road users safe.

Once our attorney proves that another party was negligent, they will connect their actions to the crash. We can then present evidence showing the collision led to specific injuries.

The Compensation You Can Recover After a Terrytown Pedestrian Accident

Settlements for a Terrytown pedestrian accident can vary depending on the accident. For example, if you sustained injuries with long-term effects, you would likely qualify for more compensation. Still, you may receive a lower amount if the damages were minor or if you partially contributed to the collision.

Our Terrytown lawyer will identify how the accident affected you. After that, they will calculate the value of each injury and gather supporting documents. The attorney will then present the case to insurers and negotiate a fair offer.

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

Economic Damages You Could Seek After a Terrytown Pedestrian Accident

You can claim various economic damages after suffering injuries in a Terrytown collision. Our lawyer may request that the liable party compensate you for your medical costs, such as your emergency care, medication, surgery, and hospital stay. If you sustained severe injuries, you would likely incur high costs in the long run. We can consult your doctor about your future medical needs before requesting damages for future medical expenses like:

  • Follow-up visits
  • Rehabilitative care
  • Medication
  • Nursing care

Claiming Income Loss, Property Damages After a Pedestrian Accident

A Terrytown pedestrian accident may lead to injuries affecting your working ability. Our lawyer will assess the income and wages you lost during recovery. They can get a note or evidence from your employer and use it to support your case.

Another loss you may claim after a pedestrian accident is property damage. We can calculate the value of the items destroyed in the collision. After that, we can claim repair or replacement costs based on the extent of the destruction. 

Recoverable Non-Economic Damages After a Terrytown Pedestrian Accident

Non-economic damages are injuries with no fixed dollar amount. We will study your case to identify such aspects and include them in your claim file.

One damage we may seek from the at-fault party is mental health injuries. 

A pedestrian accident can affect your emotions and cause distress. For example, you may experience severe pain due to sustained injuries. Besides, you may lack sleep due to disturbing memories and discomfort.

We can help you claim such damages under pain and suffering. Other non-economic injuries include:

  • Loss of consortium
  • Reduced quality of life
  • Physical impairment
  • Scarring
  • Grief over a loved one’s wrongful death

Evidence We Can Use in a Terrytown Pedestrian Accident Case

The proof relevant to your case will depend on how the collision occurred and the damages you seek. One item our attorney may use as evidence is a report by an accident reconstructionist. This document will detail how the collision happened based on the professional’s investigation.

If a Terrytown accident destroyed your belongings, our attorney might present images of the destruction as proof. Besides, they will use receipts of repair costs and damage assessment reports to claim reimbursement.

Vehicle maintenance records might be vital proof if a crash happened due to mechanical failure. Our lawyer can use these files to show that a driver did not ensure their vehicle was in good condition. Besides, the attorney can present the documents to prove a company or mechanic was at fault.
