Did you or a loved one suffer a life-changing injury in Baton Rouge? Catastrophic injuries can have numerous causes, including car accidents, serious falls, workplace incidents, or medical errors. They can leave lasting damage, not only physically and emotionally but financially and legally as well.
Statute of Limitations
In Louisiana, victims of catastrophic injuries have one year to file a claim in pursuit of justice if they sustained their injuries prior to July 1, 2024. However, the statute of limitations has been extended to two years for injuries occurring on or after July 1, 2024. Known as the statute of limitations, this is either a 12- or 24-month timeframe, depending on when you were hurt, for personal injury claims. The deadline must be adhered to. If you fail to file before it expires, you could lose your right to pursue compensation altogether.
