Under Louisiana law, comparative fault applies to auto accidents. This means each individual (or his insurer) must pay for the damages he caused. Our attorneys are highly skilled in evaluating all aspects of car accident claims, including fault investigation, available insurance, and the availability of exemplary or punitive damages for alcohol/drug-related car accidents.
Other potential accident causes, including defective roadways and/or vehicular defects are evaluated. Even if the at-fault driver has no liability coverage, your insurance policy may cover losses for medical bills, lost wages, and general damages.
If you or a loved one have been in an auto accident, it is important to hire an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible after the accident occurs. This allows photos, witness statements, investigation, and accident reports to be obtained quickly. Our firm provides the financial costs of litigation and medical expenses during the litigation.
