It should come as no surprise that car accidents are the number one cause of personal injuries in Harvey, Louisiana. You see how people drive on Lapalco and Manhattan Boulevard!

Too many drivers on the road who don’t even possess the skills required to safely maneuver a Power Wheels.

Some people just don’t seem to care, and the roads would be so much safer without them. Unfortunately, accidents happen. Even to the good drivers.

It’s a relief that most collisions are minor, though sadly, many have long-lasting effects, and a few are tragically fatal.

Everyone has the right to feel safe as they drive through Harvey and Woodmere. When these rights are violated by the careless actions of a reckless driver, that person must be held accountable.

Why Should You Hire a Harvey Personal Injury Attorney?

We get that you prefer to handle things on your own.

Like most Harvey residents, you are probably hard-working and are not the type to sue someone. We understand and respect that.

Just keep in mind that the accident wasn’t your fault and now you have to deal with the aftermath of a painful, debilitating injury.

Fighting the insurance company by yourself isn’t easy. The insurance companies will use their tactics to avoid paying you the total amount of damages you deserve.

A local personal injury attorney will work with your doctors to get a full understanding of the severity of your injury and how that injury has affected your everyday life. That knowledge will be used to make sure your settlement value is fair and covers your losses.

Damages that your attorney will fight for include:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Physical therapy
  • Rehabilitation
  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Emotional pain and suffering
  • Future medical bills
  • Future lost wages

If You Were Injured by an 18 Wheeler, You Need a Harvey Truck Accident Attorney

If you live in Harvey, it’s all but impossible to avoid the Westbank Expressway and the many large trucks that speed down it.

When an accident occurs with an 18 wheeler, the effects are often catastrophic and the victim is left with very serious personal injuries. Occasionally wrongful death can tragically result from an 18 wheeler wreck.

Accidents involving 18 wheelers or large work trucks are much more serious than your average car crash and getting the trucking company to pay for your injuries can be difficult. The trucking companies usually have a team of lawyers skilled in deflecting accountability. They may say that the accident wasn’t their fault, or they may try to get you to settle out right away.

Depending on how you were hit and the type of injury you received, it may take a while for you to feel the full effects of your injury. Some injuries like back injuries and head trauma may take several weeks and several trips to the doctor to get fully diagnosed.

If you sign paperwork with the insurance company right after your accident, you may lose your right to compensation for future medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Regardless of the reason for your personal injury, you have rights under the law that our team will fight for to make you whole again and bring you peace of mind.
