Services
Personal Injury
Our personal injury practice addresses cases where individuals suffer harm through no fault of their own. We represent clients in auto accidents, slip-and-falls, and other negligence-driven incidents across Louisiana. Our attorneys work to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering, operating on a contingency basis that ensures access to justice for all accident victims.
Workers' Compensation
We advocate for employees injured on Louisiana job sites, including oil fields, construction zones, and industrial facilities. Our team navigates workers' compensation claims while preserving rights to third-party lawsuits when applicable. From initial benefit applications to appeals, we protect clients' interests throughout the legal process, ensuring fair treatment from employers and insurers.
Car Accidents
Our car accident specialists handle claims resulting from distracted driving, DUIs, and other negligent behaviors. We document accident details through police reports, witness statements, and expert analysis to establish fault. Clients receive guidance on medical treatment documentation and evidence preservation to maximize recovery from insurance providers.
Wrongful Death
We assist families seeking accountability for preventable deaths caused by negligence. Our firm handles cases involving vehicular accidents, medical malpractice, and workplace fatalities. We pursue economic damages covering funeral costs and lost income, plus non-economic compensation for emotional distress, while respecting the sensitive nature of these cases.
18-Wheeler Accidents
Our attorneys specialize in complex semi-truck accident cases involving multiple liable parties. We investigate logbook violations, cargo loading issues, and mechanical failures to build strong cases against trucking companies. With access to accident reconstruction experts, we quantify damages resulting from catastrophic injuries in these high-stakes collisions.

Questions
What should I do immediately after a car accident?
Ensure safety, call emergency services, document the scene with photos, exchange information with involved parties, and contact our firm before speaking to insurance adjusters.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Louisiana?
Louisiana's statute of limitations allows one year from the accident date to file a personal injury claim. Consulting our attorneys promptly helps preserve critical evidence.
Can I collect workers' compensation and sue a third party simultaneously?
Louisiana law permits pursuing workers' compensation benefits while maintaining a third-party lawsuit against negligent parties responsible for workplace injuries.
What makes truck accident cases more complex?
Truck accidents often involve multiple liable parties, federal regulations, and larger insurance policies. Our firm has experience handling complex liability determinations and post-accident evidence collection.
What costs can be recovered in a wrongful death claim?
Families may recover funeral expenses, lost income, medical costs incurred before death, and non-economic damages for emotional distress through Louisiana's wrongful death statutes.
How are legal fees structured for injury cases?
We work on a contingency fee basis - payment only occurs upon successful case resolution, with fees calculated as a percentage of the recovered settlement.
