Helping Louisiana Families Seek Accountability, Stability, and Justice After a Tragic Loss

Losing a loved one because of someone else’s negligence is one of the most devastating experiences any family can face. The emotional shock, financial strain, and uncertainty about the future can feel overwhelming, especially when the death was sudden, avoidable, and caused by misconduct or carelessness. At a time when you should be allowed to grieve, you may instead find yourself navigating insurance companies, accident investigations, and legal questions you never expected to face. You don’t have to shoulder that alone.

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers represents families across Louisiana, including Lafayette, Alexandria, Lake Charles, Marksville, New Iberia, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans, in wrongful death claims arising from accidents, unsafe conditions, and corporate negligence. With more than 350 years of combined experience, our lawyers provide guidance, compassion, and strength when families need it most.

Understanding Wrongful Death Claims in Louisiana

A wrongful death claim arises when a person loses their life due to the wrongful act, negligence, or misconduct of another party. These cases aim to provide financial stability for surviving family members and hold negligent individuals, companies, or institutions accountable for the harm they caused. Wrongful death claims may arise from:

  • Motor vehicle accidents
  • Commercial truck and big-rig collisions
  • Defective products
  • Workplace or industrial accidents
  • Medical malpractice
  • Nursing home neglect or abuse
  • Dangerous property conditions
  • Maritime or offshore incidents
  • Violent or intentional acts

Our attorneys investigate the circumstances, identifies all responsible parties, and explains your options clearly and compassionately.

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.

Common Causes of Wrongful Death in Louisiana

Wrongful death can stem from many forms of negligence. Our attorneys routinely handle cases involving:

  • Distracted, drunk, or reckless driving
  • Unsafe commercial trucking practices
  • Failure to maintain safe premises
  • Medical errors or treatment failures
  • Defective medical devices or medications
  • Lack of adequate workplace safety measures
  • Nursing home neglect or understaffing
  • Criminal behavior resulting in fatal injury

Each case requires a detailed review of evidence, expert evaluation, and a legal strategy tailored to the unique circumstances of the loss.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim in Louisiana?

Louisiana law specifies who may bring a wrongful death claim.

Priority typically follows this order:

  1. The surviving spouse and children
  2. If none, the surviving parents
  3. If none, the surviving siblings
  4. If none, surviving grandparents

If no qualifying relatives exist, the estate may pursue certain claims. Our attorneys ensure the correct parties file and guide families through every step of the process.

Types of Compensation in a Wrongful Death Claim

Compensation in wrongful death cases is meant to relieve financial burdens and address the immeasurable losses a family suffers. Damages may include:

  • Final medical expenses
  • Funeral and burial costs
  • Loss of the loved one’s income and future earning potential
  • Loss of benefits (insurance, retirement, household contributions)
  • Loss of care, companionship, guidance, and support
  • Pain and suffering experienced by the deceased prior to passing
  • Mental anguish and emotional hardship of surviving family members

We work with financial experts, medical professionals, and life-care planners to calculate the full scope of your losses and build a claim that reflects the true impact on your family.

What to Do After a Wrongful Death

These steps can help protect your family’s rights:

  • Obtain medical and coroner reports
  • Keep records of funeral expenses and related costs
  • Document how the loss affects your household
  • Avoid speaking with insurance adjusters before consulting an attorney
  • Contact Laborde Earles for guidance and protection

We take on the legal burden so your family can focus on healing.

Our Legal Team We fight for our own.

Meet Our Team

Wrongful Death Claims Clear Answers to Important Questions

How long do I have to file a wrongful death claim?

Most claims must be filed within one year of the date of death, one of the shortest deadlines in the country. Contacting an attorney quickly is essential.

What if criminal charges were filed?

A civil wrongful death case can move forward separately from any criminal case. Compensation is available even if criminal charges are never filed or result in no conviction.

Can multiple family members receive compensation?

Yes. Louisiana law determines which relatives may recover damages, and compensation can be distributed among qualifying survivors.

What if the death was caused by a business or corporation?

Many wrongful death cases involve companies, hospitals, manufacturers, or commercial carriers. We handle complex corporate liability claims regularly.

Do you have more questions?

Our team is here to answer every question about your case—clearly and honestly.

Standing With Families Seeking Answers and Accountability

A wrongful death changes everything — your household, your future, and your sense of security. While no amount of compensation can replace the person you lost, a strong legal case can provide stability, accountability, and a measure of justice. Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers is here to guide your family with compassion, strength, and unwavering commitment. Contact us today for a free, confidential evaluation of your case.
