Types of Car Accident Cases We Handle

  • Rear-End Collisions: These are often caused by tailgating, distracted driving, or sudden stops in heavy traffic.
  • Intersection/Roundabout Accidents: Intersections and roundabouts are high-risk areas where drivers fail to yield the right-of-way, run red lights, or make improper turns.
  • Head-On Crashes: These accidents often are caused by a negligent driver who was distracted, under the influence, or was fatigued and fell asleep at the wheel.
  • Side-Impact Collisions (T-Bone Accidents): These accidents often occur at intersections and can result in serious injuries, particularly for those on the side of impact.
  • Hit and Run Accidents: These incidents require swift investigation to identify the at-fault driver and hold them accountable.
  • Accidents Involving Uninsured Motorists: These accidents happen when the other driver has no insurance or not enough insurance, you can make a claim for all of your damages against your own insurance, provided you carry uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage (UIM).
  • Multi-Vehicle Accidents: Louisiana highways are prone to chain-reaction accidents involving multiple vehicles, often triggered by a single negligent driver.
  • Highway/Interstate Accidents: High speeds and heavy traffic on Louisiana highways and interstates, such as I-10, I-12 or Hwy 190 increase the risk of serious accidents.
