New Iberia Hit and Run Accident Lawyer

What Our Services Include

If you hire us to recover your accident losses, we can:

• Build a case proving the other driver’s negligence and your right to recover damages from a hit-and-run crash
• Investigate the accident scene to determine what happened
• Collect and review evidence, including traffic camera footage, witness accounts, police reports, medical records, and more
• Assess your financial and non-financial damages and assign a settlement value
• Speak with expert witnesses who can offer a professional opinion that helps your case
• Manage all communications with your own insurance company (or the insurance of the liable party if they are found) and negotiate for fair compensation
• File your injury lawsuit with the court and seek your recovery at trial, if necessary

We can stay in touch with Iberia Parish’s law enforcement to see if officers have found the hit-and-run driver and update you on any developments. Whether they are found or not, we will do our best to discover and pursue a means of compensation for you.

Recoverable Damages in a New Iberia Hit-and-Run Collision

Our hit-and-run accident lawyer serving New Iberia can assess your financial (economic) and personal (non-economic) losses and determine the compensation you could demand from the at-fault party. Financial needs you could recover include:

• Medical expenses (hospital emergency care, surgeries, imaging tests, and medications)
• Rehabilitation and ongoing care costs (at-home nursing care and physical therapy)
• Therapy and counseling costs
• Lost income (including benefits, bonuses, tips, and commissions)
• Reduced or lost earning capacity
• Property damage (repairs and replacement of personal items, including your vehicle)
• Other accident-related expenses

Non-financial losses can include:

• Pain and suffering
• Mental distress and emotional anguish
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Loss of companionship
• Disfigurement and scarring
• Wrongful death

These losses vary from case to case, so we will have to look at your specific damages to know what you can claim. This figure can also help you decide if an insurer’s settlement offer is too low. You don’t have to accept an offer that falls short of your needs.
