Injured in Louisiana?

The days after an accident move fast. Insurance adjusters call, bills arrive, and decisions get made before you have had a chance to heal.

Louisiana law sets time limits for bringing an injury claim, and some of those limits can be short. Evidence like photos, witness memories, vehicle data, and surveillance footage can disappear quickly. Talking with a lawyer early can help protect your options while you focus on getting better.

Whether your accident happened on I-20, I-49, Barksdale Boulevard, or a neighborhood street, our team serves injured people from our Shreveport and Bossier City offices and in all 64 Louisiana parishes.

Questions we hear every day

How much does a personal injury consultation cost?

Your first consultation with our team is free. You can call (318) 746-5997 or use the online form to get started.

How do attorney fees work?

No fees unless we win. Our personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee, which means you pay no attorney fee up front, and our fee comes from the money we recover for you. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney fee. How case costs and expenses are handled is explained in your written fee agreement before you hire us.

What should I do after a car accident?

Get medical care first, even if you feel okay. Call the police so there is a report, take photos of the vehicles, the scene, and your injuries, and get contact information from witnesses. Keep your medical records and bills, and talk with a lawyer before giving a recorded statement.

Should I talk to the insurance company?

You may need to notify your own insurer. Be careful with the other driver’s insurance company: adjusters may ask for a recorded statement or broad medical authorizations. It is generally wise to speak with a lawyer before giving either.

What if the insurance company already offered me money?

An early offer may come before the full extent of your injuries is known. Once you accept and sign a release, you usually cannot ask for more. Talk with a lawyer before you sign anything.

What information should I bring to my consultation?

Bring what you have: the police or accident report number, photos, insurance information, medical records and bills, and any letters from insurance companies. If you don’t have these yet, call anyway. We can help you figure out what is needed.

How long does a personal injury case take?

It depends on the injuries, how long treatment lasts, whether fault is disputed, and whether the case settles or goes to court. Some cases resolve in months; others take longer. We will talk with you about what to expect in your situation.

Can I still contact an attorney if I think I may share responsibility?

Yes. Louisiana uses a comparative fault system, and sharing some responsibility does not automatically end a claim. How fault affects a case depends on the facts, so it is worth talking with a lawyer.
