What Damages Can a Bunkie Personal Injury Lawyer Help Recover?

When someone else’s negligence leaves you seriously injured through no fault of your own, you may be entitled to pursue compensation for the full extent of damages you have incurred and will continue to face. The Bunkie personal injury attorneys at Laborde Earles can calculate your losses and fight for fair financial recovery. Take a look at some of the damages that may apply to your case.

Economic Damages

These objectively verifiable damages aim to make you whole for quantifiable losses, such as:

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
  • Property damage costs
  • Home modifications for disabilities
  • Costs of assistive equipment/residential care

Non-Economic Damages

These subjective, non-monetary losses are equally important to account for, such as:

  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress/mental anguish
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Permanent disfigurement/scarring
  • Loss of consortium for spouse

Wrongful Death Damages

If a loved one’s life was lost due to negligence, our Bunkie wrongful death lawyers can seek damages that can provide financial support for factors like:

  • Pre-death medical costs
  • Funeral/burial expenses
  • Loss of economic support/inheritance
  • Loss of household services
  • Loss of care, nurturing, guidance

By examining the specific details of your case, weighing liability and insurance policy factors, and consulting medical and economic experts, the legal team at Laborde Earles can accurately calculate your damages. We know that no sum of money can undo the trauma you’ve endured. However, by holding all negligent parties fully accountable, we can help recover the compensation and sense of justice you deserve. This financial recovery can help provide closure while covering your future costs.

You Only Have Two Years to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Louisiana

In the aftermath of an accident, the last thing on your mind is legal technicalities and deadlines. Still, La.Civ.Code art 3492 imposes a strict two-year statute of limitations on most personal injury claims.

This means you generally have just two years from the date of the incident to file a personal injury lawsuit against those responsible. If you miss this deadline, you could lose your ability to recover compensation forever.

While two years may seem like sufficient time, these cases are incredibly complex and require extensive investigation, documentation, and calculations to prove negligence and damages.

Attempting to navigate this process alone while also recovering from injuries is an overwhelming challenge that can result in costly delays or mistakes jeopardizing the entire claim.

Time is truly of the essence for personal injury claims in Louisiana, which is why the attorneys at Laborde Earles make it a priority to get your case started immediately to protect your rights and potential financial recovery. If you or a loved one was injured due to negligence in the Bunkie area, do not delay in seeking legal representation. The sooner you have our team on your side, the better we can safeguard your ability to hold all liable parties accountable for the full damages you have suffered.

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.

I had an amazing experience working with my paralegal, Wesley Guillory, at Laborde Earles Law Firm. Wesley went above and beyond for me throughout the entire process.
