Common Questions About Personal Injury Claims

  • Why hire a personal injury lawyer after an accident?

    Texas law gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a claim. However, acting fast is crucial—evidence disappears, and insurance companies move quickly to weaken your case.


  • How much does it cost to hire you?

     We’ll review all available options—including uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage—to pursue the compensation you need.

  • What types of cases do you handle?

    Louisiana’s comparative fault law means you can still recover damages, even if you share some blame. We make sure blame is assigned fairly and fight for your fair share.

  • How quickly should I contact a lawyer?

    Where do most Metairie car accidents happen?

  • Will my case go to trial?

    Most cases settle, but if the insurance company won’t treat you fairly, we’re fully prepared to fight for you in court.
