Our Shreveport Lawyers Handle a Variety of Personal Injury Cases

You may be surprised to learn how negligence factors into different types of accidents. For example, you may have a case after a car accident even if the driver who hit you did not break any traffic laws. Our team may uncover that another party, such as the manufacturer of defective auto parts, contributed to your accident. Our team of personal injury lawyers includes:

  • Car accident lawyers
  • Motorcycle accident lawyers
  • Truck accident lawyers
  • Workplace accident lawyers
  • Boating accident lawyers
  • Pedestrian accident lawyers
  • Bicycle accident lawyers
  • Dog bite lawyers

If you lost a loved one to fatal accident injuries, our Shreveport wrongful death lawyers can help your family seek justice. Through a civil suit, we can also help you secure financial recovery that can help you honor the memory of your loved one and cope in their absence.

How Our Personal Injury Attorneys Establish Negligence

The key to seeking compensation in any personal injury case rests on your ability to prove four elements of negligence. Our Shreveport personal injury attorneys can conduct an investigation to demonstrate the following:

  • Someone owed you a basic duty of care to keep you reasonably safe: For example, drivers must follow traffic laws to ensure the safety of others on the road.
  • That party breached this duty in some way: Suppose another driver failed to yield the right of way at a four-way intersection.
  • This breach caused or contributed to your accident: By failing to stop at a stop sign, the other driver caused a sideswipe collision.
  • The accident resulted in injuries and financial losses: As a result of the collision, you suffered a head injury, property damage, and physical pain.

Personal injury cases hinge on evidence. Our attorneys can gather police reports, video surveillance, and eyewitness statements to support your case. In some cases, we may even consult expert witnesses, such as accident reconstructionists, whose testimony can help your claim.

Our Personal Injury Team Fights for the Compensation You Deserve

Your accident injuries may warrant significant compensation. Our personal injury attorneys in Shreveport can assess your losses to ensure we seek maximum financial recovery. We can speak with your doctors and gather your medical bills to understand both your current and ongoing expenses.

We can seek compensation for a variety of damages, including:

  • Immediate medical care expenses, such as ambulatory care, hospital stays, diagnostic testing, and surgeries
  • Future medical care expenses, such as physical therapy
  • Disability, including in-home aid and home modifications
  • Pain and suffering
  • Lost wages
  • Reduced earning capacity
  • Property damage, such as vehicle or bicycle repairs
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Loss of quality of life

It can be difficult to assess non-economic losses, but our attorneys can use a few methods to assign a monetary value to them. We aim for fair compensation so that you are not left paying for someone else’s negligence in the future. Call Laborde Earles today to get started on your case.

You Have a Deadline to Meet When Filing a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Louisiana

Unlike other states, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit in Louisiana is extremely short. According to CC Art. 3492, you generally only have two years from the date of your accident to take legal action. This does not leave much time for our Shreveport attorneys to investigate a case and negotiate with the liable parties.

That’s why it’s important to get started on your case immediately. The sooner you reach out to us, the better we can protect your right to seek fair awards. We can start working on your case right away and streamline the legal process as much as possible.

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.
