Ville Platte Car Accident Lawyer

If you were injured in a car accident in Ville Platte, you may be eligible to collect monetary compensation from the other driver and their insurance company.

Our Ville Platte car accident lawyers advocate on behalf of claimants who have been injured by negligence.

After a Car Accident in Ville Platte, Call Our Team to Pursue Compensation

After you have sought medical attention for your injuries, you should consider calling a Ville Platte car accident lawyer. Even if the accident was partly your fault, you may qualify for partial compensation. It takes only a few minutes of your time to learn about your legal options when you speak with a member of our staff. We can help you no matter what kind of car accident you were involved in or how severely you were injured.

We advocate for claimants who have been injured in:

Rear-End Collisions

Whether you were the front or back driver in a rear-end collision, you may be eligible for compensation, and we can help you get it. While many people believe that fault in a rear-end collision solely rests on the rear driver, in many situations, this is not the case. Our legal team can review the evidence in your situation to get the full story of what happened and pursue the cost of your expenses from the at-fault party.

Side-Impact Collisions

A side-impact collision, which often occurs at an intersection, can cause major injuries and property damage. We can help you collect compensation to pay for both ––along with your pain and suffering and emotional distress––no matter how the accident occurred. Your legal team can review any available traffic surveillance footage, photos, videos, and the police report to determine who should be responsible for your damages.

Head-On Collisions

Head-on collisions can be especially dangerous. If you were involved in this type of crash, our legal team can establish negligence in your case. Many head-on collisions are caused when someone is driving on the wrong side of the road or in the middle of two opposing lanes. Your legal team can argue that because of the other driver’s inability to drive safely, you have incurred financial losses that impact your quality of life.

Single-Car Accidents

Even if your car was the only vehicle in the accident, someone else might be partially or fully liable for your injuries. We may be able to show that your car left the road because you were swerving to avoid colliding with another driver who was engaged in reckless or careless behavior.

Drunk Driving Accidents

We can take action against a drunk driver who injured you or someone you love. If you are not sure if the other driver was intoxicated, we can investigate and look for evidence of drug or alcohol use in the police report. Even if the other driver was arrested and charged with a crime, this has no bearing on your ability to file a civil action.

Distracted Driving Accidents

Distracted driving is a significant and growing cause of car accidents in Louisiana, according to AAA. We will look at the other motorist’s cell phone records and other evidence that supports your distracted driving claim.

Shared-Fault Accidents

In Louisiana, you are not automatically ineligible to recover compensation just because you were partly at fault for a car accident. We can help you pursue damages in a shared-fault situation.

Fatal Car Accidents

If you lost a loved one in a fatal car accident, and you are a qualifying representative, you may be able to pursue compensation for the cost of various damages. This could include loss of consortium, funeral and burial expenses, and loss of parental guidance.

Regardless of how you were injured, a Ville Platte car accident lawyer can help you pursue the cost of your collision-related expenses. To learn more about your legal options in a free case review, call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers today at (337) 777-7777.

Louisiana’s Statute of Limitations

Under Louisiana Civil Code §3492, you have two years from the date of your accident to file a lawsuit against the at-fault party. Failing to act within this period could jeopardize your ability to pursue financial recovery. However, certain circumstances may extend the amount of time you have to take legal action. For example, if an injured person in your vehicle was a minor, they are sometimes granted additional time to pursue compensation for their losses.

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