Experience across every type of collision.
We handle a wide range of car accident claims across Louisiana, including:
Sudden rear impacts causing neck, back, and spine injuries frequently
Side-impact crashes at intersections causing severe injuries and vehicle intrusion
High-force head-on crashes causing catastrophic injuries and life-threatening trauma often
Collisions involving impaired motorists causing preventable severe injuries and fatalities
Crashes caused by phone use or inattention while driving vehicles
Drivers who flee the scene leaving victims without immediate assistance
Delivery and work-related vehicle accidents involving company drivers and fleets
Accidents involving drivers with no active insurance coverage
State transportation data consistently shows elevated rates of fatal and injury-causing crashes, particularly on major roadways serving Central Louisiana.
More than one thousand people lose their lives in traffic crashes across Louisiana each year, highlighting the serious and ongoing dangers faced by drivers on state roadways.
A significant share of fatal crashes involves excessive speed or impaired driving, behaviors that dramatically increase crash severity and reduce reaction time.
Most fatal accidents happen on highways and heavily traveled corridors, where higher speeds and traffic volume amplify the risk of severe or deadly collisions.
Every car accident case is unique, and its value depends on the nature of your injuries, how the crash has affected your life, and the specific facts involved. Understanding the types of damages that may be available helps ensure you pursue compensation that accounts for both immediate costs and long-term consequences.
Determining who is responsible after a car accident can be complex, particularly when multiple drivers or contributing factors are involved. Identifying all potentially liable parties is essential to protecting your claim and pursuing full and fair compensation.

In most cases, Louisiana law allows one year from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. Missing this deadline can prevent recovery, so it’s important to act quickly.
Louisiana follows a comparative fault system, meaning you may still recover compensation even if you share some responsibility. Your recovery may be reduced based on your percentage of fault.
Insurance companies often move quickly to limit payouts. Having a lawyer can help protect your rights, handle communications, and ensure any settlement reflects the true value of your claim.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and, in serious cases, long-term disability or wrongful death losses.
Our team is here to answer every question about your case—clearly and honestly.
