Henderson Personal Injury Lawyer

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Whether you were injured in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident, Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers has the resources to investigate your crash and work to hold the responsible party (or parties) liable. We will pursue compensation from the other driver and anyone else who might have contributed to your accident – or who might bear legal liability. For example, a vehicle manufacturer or a trucking company may be liable for your accident.

Our Henderson personal injury lawyers take on insurance companies. Those companies have a slew of tactics they may use to pay you less than what is fair. Our team knows how to push back and fight to get our clients fair compensation. If they do not agree to pay you fairly, we will take your case to court.

Boat Accidents

We will investigate your boat accident and determine who was responsible. That may mean pursuing compensation from:

• Another boat driver
• A marina
• The boat manufacturer
• The insurance company that insures any of these parties

Defective Products or Pharmaceuticals

If you were injured while using a consumer product or good, we may help you recover compensation from the manufacturer. As long as you were using the product for its intended purpose – and you did not do anything to alter the product in a meaningful way before your injury – we may be able to hold the manufacturer liable.

We are also prepared to take on drug companies and medical facilities when patients get injured or become ill through no fault of their own. In some cases, we can also file a medical malpractice lawsuit against your doctor – for instance, if they prescribed you the wrong drug or the wrong dosage.

Slip and Fall Accidents

We will investigate and determine who was liable, whether you slipped and fell at:

• Someone’s home
• An apartment complex
• The office
• The gym
• A store
• Anywhere else

The liable party might be the property owner, manager, or someone else.

Dog Bites

Dog owners may be responsible for the injuries their animals cause. RS 14:102.14 says that a dog is considered “dangerous” if it attacks a person more than once in a three-year period. Owners of “dangerous” dogs must keep their dogs restrained or confined at all times while on the owner’s property, and the dog must be kept on a leash whenever it leaves the property.

If a dog owner violated these rules and their dog attacked you or your child, we can help you seek compensation to cover medical bills, pain and suffering, and more.

Wrongful Death

One of the most difficult experiences a person can face is losing a loved one due to another party’s negligence. While money cannot bring your family member back, it can help you with the expenses that come from planning a funeral and burial.

Wrongful death plaintiffs, as defined by CC Art. 2315.1, may also be eligible for compensation to make up for the deceased’s loss of income, as well as the loss of guidance and companionship.
