ClientBe Aware of the Statute of Limitations
Per CC Art. 3492, there is a two-year statute of limitations on personal injury lawsuits in the state of Louisiana – one of the shortest deadlines in the nation. If you fail to take action in time, you may lose the right to recover compensation. Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers can prevent that from happening by filing a quick lawsuit to get your case on the books before the statute expires.
The statute of limitations for wrongful death in Louisiana is also two years, per CC Art. 2315.2. The sooner you reach out to our firm, the sooner we can begin gathering evidence and building your case.
