Serious injuries require the attention of the right medical specialists as well as the right attorney. If a loved one's injuries resulted from an accident caused by someone else's negligence, contact the Joseph Joy & Associates law firm in Lafayette, Louisiana.

  • Burn injury victims face pain, surgery and an extensive period of healing. When a truck accident or oil rig explosion or some other accident causes a burn injury, the burn injury victim will likely face multiple skin grafts while suffering lung problems, sensitive scars, a loss of sweat glands and the pain of life-threatening infections. Compensation for burn injury should include medical treatment, loss of wages and payment for pain and suffering.
  • Spinal cord injuries can mean a lifetime in a wheelchair. A motorcycle crash can end with paraplegia or quadriplegia. A serious fall in a construction accident can mean never walking again — and never being able to do construction work again. Our law firm works with experts to determine what the victim will need in terms of medical and attendant care, special equipment, occupational training and financial compensation for loss of earning capacity.
  • The full extent of a brain injury may not be realized right away. Right after a serious car accident, the head injury victim may seem dazed, but as time goes by, the symptoms may become more pronounced — cognitive defects, loss of IQ, memory loss, depression, mood swings or loss of motor skills. Compensation must take into account all current and future economic losses as well as the eventual need for attendant care.

If you or a loved one has suffered a life-changing injury, talk to a personal injury lawyer who can explain to the insurance company and to a jury how much the victim and the victim's family have lost because of someone else's negligence. It costs nothing to talk to a personal injury attorney at the Joseph Joy & Associates law firm. It can bring you and your family the financial compensation and peace of mind you need to face the future.
