What Kind of Mardi Gras Accident Claims Do We Handle?

You can review safety tips to help you stay safe during Mardi Gras and reduce your odds of facing an injury. Our team provides thorough legal assistance with personal injury claims after an accident at Mardi Gras. We can assist you with injuries caused by:

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Mardi Gras represents a hectic time on the road. Drivers often end up navigating crowded and unfamiliar streets. You can contact us after a:

  • Car accident
  • Motorcycle accident
  • Truck accident
  • Float accident

We’ll take your legal situation seriously and discuss methods to secure fair compensation.

DUI Accidents

Many drivers engage in drinking before getting behind the wheel around Mardi Gras, increasing the odds of a wreck. We can help you after a collision caused by someone driving under the influence (DUI).

Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents can occur for many reasons during Mardi Gras. Crowded streets and items discarded on the road – including beads – can easily result in tripping hazards that could leave you with a broken bone, concussion, or another injury. We can discuss options for securing compensation after a slip-and-fall accident, including a premises liability claim in New Orleans.

Wrongful Death Accidents

You can reach out to us for compassionate care if you lost a loved one in a fatal accident at Mardi Gras. We can investigate the causes of the accident and discuss legal options with your family. Find out more with a New Orleans wrongful death lawyer.

Do You Get Compensation After a Mardi Gras Accident?

You may qualify for compensation after an accident at Mardi Gras if someone else caused your injury through negligence. In this situation, a Mardi Gras injury lawyer may help you seek compensation for your:

Healthcare Costs

We understand the high expenses associated with medical care. You may get funds to cover emergency treatment, time in a hospital, medications, surgeries, physical therapy, and rehabilitation.

Lost Pay

You can qualify for funds to cover lost pay, bonuses, and raises if you took off work to recover from a Mardi Gras injury. Our team helps clients with disabling injuries secure compensation for their diminished earning potential.

Property Damage

Sometimes, accidents at Mardi Gras result in property damage. For example, you could receive damages for vehicle repairs after a car accident.

Pain and Suffering

Finally, we can help you with non-economic losses after a Mardi Gras accident. We take the effects of your mental pain and emotional suffering seriously and know how to include them in your personal injury claim.
