Dangerous, Distracted Driving Accidents in Louisiana
It is no mystery: texting while driving is extremely dangerous. Both activities require visual attention, use of hands and coordination. How can drivers expect to look down at their cell phones or other texting device, and use their hands to send a message, while still driving their cars? The Louisiana legislature has prohibited texting and driving. Not only can people be fined for this, they are also liable in civil court for the damages, injuries or wrongful deaths that they cause by this reckless behavior.
Murphy Law Firm LLC is dedicated to helping clients who have been hurt by texting drivers and the families of those who have been killed by this kind of recklessness obtain full and fair compensation for the injuries and losses they have suffered. Our Baton Rouge texting and driving accident attorneys are committed to providing aggressive legal representation that is personally tailored to each client's needs.
"If you are like most of us, you cannot absorb the cost of medical bills combined with lost wages alone. You need the compensation award from a personal injury lawsuit. As a family man with four kids of my own, I understand. My goal is to make sure my injured clients are still able to provide for their families after suffering injuries. Let me help you, too. Call me." ∙ Attorney Peyton Murphy ∙ Contact Murphy Law Firm
Don't Be a Victim Twice ∙ Representation Against Insurance Companies
Most insurance company agents are well-trained experts at finding ways to deny or minimize the claims of injured car accident victims. Most people don't know what to do after an accident. When it comes to your interactions with the insurance agent:
- Do not give an official statement.
In many cases, this statement can be used in court to minimize the value of your claim.
- Do not accept the settlement offer.
Although the initial offer might seem generous to you at the time, it usually does not take into account the long-term costs of your injuries, and this type of settlement agreement will usually require you to sign away your future right to sue, even if your injuries progressively get worse.
- Call an attorney.
We offer free consultations because we want to help people in your situation. You can sit down and talk with one of our lawyers and learn about your rights and options, so that you can make informed decisions.
