A serious accident can derail not only your plans for the immediate future but the entire course of your life. When someone else’s negligence causes that accident, you may be entitled to compensation. However, figuring out who bears liability for your accident and how much compensation you should reasonably expect for those damages can prove complicated. At Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers, we help accident victims pursue personal injury claims that provide much-needed compensation for the damages sustained in accidents across Opelousas.
Did you suffer injuries due to someone else’s negligence? An Opelousas personal injury lawyer can collect evidence of who caused your accident, lay out the full range of the damages you sustained, and interact with the insurance company on your behalf to streamline your claim.
In order to determine whether you have grounds for a personal injury claim, lawyers and insurance companies will look at several critical factors.
When you can show that another party had and breached the duty of care they had to you, leading to an accident that caused damages, you can file an injury claim to seek compensation for your losses.
While you can proceed with a personal injury claim any time you are injured because of someone else’s negligence, there are some types of accidents that occur more often than others.
Industrial accidents often occur in settings with heavy machinery or equipment. These accidents can prove devastating for workers and also people who may live or work nearby.
