Types of Injuries
Attorneys Richard R. Kennedy and Richard R. Kennedy III represent many types of personal injury cases. Our firm is especially experienced in the area of catastrophic injuries. These may include brain damage, spinal injuries, burns, and more. If you have been involved in a serious accident, you may have sustained life-altering physical harm. Our legal team will fight hard to obtain compensation for your medical bills and loss of income so you can concentrate on a full recovery.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Motor vehicle accidents are one of the most common reasons for serious personal injuries. If you or a loved one has been involved in one of these incidents, you should obtain legal counsel as soon as possible. We will handle the complexities of insurance paperwork and accident reconstruction. Then you can focus on healing, both physically and emotionally.
Drunk Driving/DUI Accidents
Drunk driving is a common cause of auto accidents. Drunk drivers often travel at high speeds and display complete disregard for traffic laws. Therefore, victims are at a much greater risk for severe injury and even death. If you were involved in an accident with a drunk driver, you are likely entitled to significant compensation. This may be the case even if alcohol was not the only contributing factor.
Distracted Driving
Drivers have a responsibility to pay close attention to their surroundings. Engaging in other activities behind the wheel puts everyone on the road at risk. Common distractions include texting, talking on the phone, adjusting the radio, eating, and putting on makeup. If a distracted driver caused your accident, we will fight for the compensation you deserve.
Bicycle Accidents
When a bicycle collides with a motor vehicle, even a small one, the bicyclist can receive serious injuries. Louisiana follows a pure comparative fault rule, which means that even if a victim is partly at fault for an accident, if another party is somewhat at fault, the victim can recover damages from that party. With the help of our experienced bicycle accident attorneys, you can focus on healing while we expertly handle your case.
Product Liability
Poorly constructive or defective products can result in serious bodily injury. Our attorneys are committed to holding responsible parties such as the product manufacturer, manufacturer of components, the assembler, wholesaler, retailer, or any other party involved accountable for injuries.
Premises Liability
The failure of a supervisor or owner to maintain a safe environment can result in a wide range of bodily injury. Parties that have been injured as a result of a slip and fall, electrocution, defective sidewalks, poor security, or negligence on behalf of the negligent party can seek justice and compensation for their hardships.
