Motorcycle Accident Injury Claims in Baton Rouge

There are few more dangerous situations than riding a motorcycle when a negligent driver is sharing the road or highway. Unfortunately, this situation is the underlying cause of a high percentage of serious motorcycle accidents and very serious or fatal injuries. If you or a loved one has been the victim of a negligent driver, it is imperative that you contact Beau Layfield of The Layfield Law Firm, a Baton Rouge personal injury attorney, to discuss the situation and how to move forward with legal action. The Layfield Law Firm, LLC will help you pursue the compensation you deserve.

Many motorcycle accidents result in injuries that require long-term medical care and rehabilitation, and sadly, many of the victims never fully recover. Victims can face a lifetime of challenges after such an accident, and may be unable to work for an extended period of time, or even worse, may be permanently disabled. Permanent disability may occur when there has been brain damage or other catastrophic injury as a result of the motorcycle accident. The Layfield Law Firm, LLC can assist you in receiving the financial compensation you deserve.

    • Isn't divorce expensive?

      A contested divorce can get expensive due to the necessity to attend trial, and document the case to present in court. Those who can work out their agreements prior to court and settle them with negotiations can not only save a lot of money, they avoid the serious stress of a court trial and exposing your personal business in court. In either case, I will help you bring the issue to a resolution with the least amount of stress, whether in a contested or uncontested divorce. I make every effort to make my services affordable so that you can have high quality legal counsel to support your case.

    • How will custody of my child be decided?
      It is possible for you and your spouse to come to a decision regarding child custody without the court intervening.

      However, if you and your spouse cannot come to a custody terms agreement, the court will decide for you, and will look at the following:

      • the child's gender and age;
      • the child's mental and physical health;
      • the child's relationship with each parent;
      • the parents' respective lifestyles;
      • each parent's ability to provide basic necessities for the child, including shelter, food, and clothing; and
      • the child's preference (if they are of a certain age).
    • Should I take a settlement offer?

      It is never a good idea to settle an insurance claim before speaking with a knowledgeable personal injury attorney that has experience with injury accident cases. Insurance companies have tactics they use to deny claims, redirect fault, and withhold available compensation. An insurance claim can be a complicated process and insurance adjusters can be intimidating to accident victims. An insurance company may assert that the injuries are not as serious as claimed, and attempt to settle quickly for a low amount.

    • Is adoption a long process?

      • Each adopted child has different circumstances. There are several types of adoptions that could take place, including a stepparent adoption, a private adoption or a standard adoption. Each has its own specific challenges. With the help of my firm, we will speed the process through the system as quickly as we can so that you can begin your new family and move forward with starting life together.

    • How will child support be calculated?
      Child support is calculated differently depending on the state one resides in, but the general factors taken into consideration by the court when calculating payments include:
      • the standard of living of the child prior to the divorce;
      • the ability to pay of the parent giving child support;
      • the specific needs of the child, including their food, clothing, and educational costs; and
      • the needs and income of the custodial parent (the parent with primary custody of the child).
