Common Questions About Personal Injury Claims
Do I have a personal injury case in Louisiana?
If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may have a valid claim. A quick conversation can help clarify your situation and options.
How long do I have to file after an accident in Louisiana?
Louisiana generally has a one-year prescriptive period for personal injury claims, which means acting early is important to protect your rights.
Do I have to pay a lawyer upfront?
No, personal injury cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning there’s no attorney fee unless your case is successful.
What if the insurance company already made an offer?
Initial offers may not reflect the full value of your claim. It’s important to understand your options before accepting any settlement.
