Our Personal Injury Services

Do Not Settle For Less In Your Personal Injury

How Can a Personal Injury Attorney Help You?

While you have likely heard of personal injury attorneys, you might not know exactly what they do. Below, we have cleared things up with information about what our team does. 

Our Shreveport personal injury lawyer can: 

  • Help you understand your rights and options for pursuing compensation 
  • Investigate and analyze evidence to determine who is liable for your injuries
  • Assess the value of damages in your case 
  • Negotiate with insurance companies or the other party’s representatives 
  • Take a case to court if an insurance company refuses to make a fair settlement offer

Although the actions our team at Ryan E. Gatti, Attorney at Law might take vary from case to case, our intention is always the same. We work to get the maximum possible compensation. 

Compensation Available in Injury Cases 

Regardless of the cause of your injuries or their type, you could pursue various forms of compensation for economic and non-economic damages. 

Economic damages can include:

  • All current and future medical bills
  • Income you lost or will continue to lose while recovering from your injuries
  • Repair or replacement costs for your vehicle or other damaged property
  • A lower earning capacity as a result of disabilities that an injury caused

Non-economic damages can include:

  • The physical and emotional distress you experienced because of the accident
  • The way your injuries have inhibited you from participating in activities you enjoy
  • The loss of companionship, affection, or intimacy with a partner

Surviving family members and estate representatives of individuals who have died in accidents can also seek compensation through wrongful death claims. 

The available damages in these cases include but are not limited to:

  • Funeral and burial expenses 
  • Medical expenses for treatment the decedent received 
  • Loss of financial support
  • The psychological distress of losing a loved one

To learn about the available compensation in your case, consult a Shreveport personal injury lawyer, such as ours at Ryan E. Gatti, Attorney at Law. 

How Long Do You Have to Make a Personal Injury Claim?

In Louisiana, you typically have one year from the date of an accident to make an injury claim. This is a short period. You should not wait to start the claims process if you have reason to believe someone’s negligent or reckless actions led to your injuries. 

Workers’ Compensation Benefits in Louisiana 

If you have been hurt or fallen ill at work in Louisiana, you could be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. These can cover the cost of medical care, make up for lost wages, or support you through vocational training. Most employees in the state can qualify for workers’ compensation benefits. However, securing them is not without challenges, and sometimes the state denies claims. This is why it can be a good idea to consult an attorney about what benefits you could receive or how to move forward if your claim has been denied.

However, we believe everyone should have access to the legal representation they need. That is why we offer free consultations and work on a contingency fee basis.
