Personal Injury and Car Accidents

The main focus of any personal injury claim involves dealing with insurance companies. If the claims system worked the way it should, you would not need a lawyer. However, the average personal injury recovery is almost sixty percent higher when the victim works with an attorney, rather than filing their claim on their own.

Whether you have been injured in a slip-and-fall or a car accident, you have just one year to file your claim from the date of your accident. If you have sustained an injury through the fault of someone else, it is important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Working with accountants and medical experts to value the medical and financial losses you have suffered, the Law Offices of Donald J. Melancon will do what it takes to maximize your recovery. With an intimate knowledge of the personal injury evaluation process, they know how to organize and prepare for trial.

Divorce and Family Law Resources

The Law Offices of Donald J. Melancon handles both Louisiana at-fault and no-fault divorces. An at-fault divorce involves adultery, imprisonment, or is the direct result of a specific conflict. While a no-fault divorce requires no specific reason, there is a mandatory separation period. In either case, your attorney will help you with all your divorce settlement concerns, including property division, child custody, child support, spousal support, visitation, and modification of orders.

The firm also handles other family law concerns, such as adoptions, tutorships and guardianships, and the development of trust accounts for children in custody situations.
