Question 1

Do I need a New Orleans car accident lawyer?

If you suffered any injury, are facing medical bills, or the other driver is disputing fault, yes. Insurance companies have trained adjusters working against you from day one. Your consultation is free — we only get paid if we win.

Question 2

How much does a car accident lawyer cost?

We work on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing upfront and owe us nothing unless we recover compensation for you. Your consultation is always free.

Question 3

How long do I have to file a claim in Louisiana?

For accidents on or after July 1, 2024, you have two years from the date of the accident to file under Louisiana Civil Code article 3493.11. For accidents before July 1, 2024, the old one-year rule still applies.
