Louisianans who have been injured in a car accident know just how extensive the resulting injuries can be. Victims can be left with broken bones, severe whiplash, and head and neck injuries. Traumatic brain injuries can leave a victim permanently disabled and, in the worst cases, the harm can be significant enough to cause death. Recovering from these damages can take time, money, and a lot of heartache. However, by filing a lawsuit against a negligent driver who caused the accident, a victim may be able to recover much needed compensation.
Louisiana Best Buy sued for premises liability
Every day, Louisianans enter local business to carry out their daily tasks. Whether it is to buy groceries, purchase a birthday gift, visit a museum, or see a movie, consumers across our state rarely consider whether the establishments they enter are safe. This is a good thing, as it means that in most instances, businesses are so safe we don't even consider the possibility of them being dangerous. Yet, quite frequently, Louisianans are hurt while on the premises of others. When this happens, the resulting harm can be excruciating, both physically and financially.
Our team stands up to negligent truckers and truck companies
Though many of us don't like to think about it, the vehicles that we drive on a nearly everyday basis pose a serious threat. We can never know for sure who is behind the wheel of any given vehicle, and their negligence could prove quite harmful. Semi-trucks in particular can cause devastating accidents due to their size in comparison to other vehicles. If you have been injured in a truck accident, then you know the tragic consequences that can follow.
Women injured by vaginal mesh products
Medical products and procedures are supposed to make our lives better, not worse. But, unfortunately, this isn't always the case. Just ask the thousands of women from throughout the U.S. who have suffered because of damage caused by transvaginal mesh and bladder slings.
Vicarious liability and Louisiana truck accidents
Many Louisianans are afraid to drive near semi-trucks, and for good reason. These massive vehicles can cause devastation when involved in an accident and, unfortunately, their drivers are not always acting in the safest manner possible. Truckers can be fatigued, intoxicated, or, just like other motorists, distracted and inattentive. When a truck accident occurs, victims can be left with serious injuries and even permanent disability. The losses can be extreme, and recovering from the wreck can be quite costly.
Medical malpractice is a leading cause of death in the U.S.
Many people in Louisiana are nervous about going to the doctor. We often fear what the doctor may find and what it means for our future. Yet going to the doctor and being accurately diagnosed and properly treated are key to long-term health. Competent medical care can improve a patient's health. It can also save it.
What are the elements of a premises liability lawsuit?
Many of us don't realize it, but on a daily basis we enter onto the properties of other without much thought about our safety. We enter grocery stores, gas stations, and walk along sidewalks that are maintained by others. In some instances, though, individuals slip and fall while on another's premises. A slip and fall accident can leave a victim with serious injuries, which can render a significant physical and financial toll.
