Avoiding Airline Highway and River Road is nearly impossible in Reserve, Louisiana. With the amount of traffic coming through, you’d think everyone would be on their best driving behavior. Too bad that’s not the case. You see them. On their phones or speeding, basically not paying attention to the road.

Not surprising that accidents happen frequently in Reserve. Even to the good drivers. It’s a scary fact that car accidents are the number one cause of personal injury.

Everyone has the right to feel safe as they drive, but if those rights were taken away by the careless actions of reckless driver, you probably have a good personal injury case.

Do You Really Need to Hire a Reserve Personal Injury Attorney?

If you’re like most hard-working people in Reserve, you probably like to handle things on your own and don’t like the idea of having to sue someone. We totally understand and respect that. Just remember, the accident wasn’t your fault and now you’re left dealing with the aftermath of a debilitating personal injury. You can take on the insurance company yourself but keep in mind they don’t always play fair.

One of their tricks is to get you to settle out soon after your accident. Don’t do this!

The number they offer sounds like it will be enough to cover your damages and medical bills, but it is usually their lowest amount.

Some injuries like back injuries and head trauma may take several weeks and many trips to the doctor to get fully diagnosed. You may not even be feeling the full extent of your injuries in the days after your wreck.

If you sign paperwork with the insurance company right after your accident, you may lose your right to compensation for future medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

A good local personal injury attorney will work with your doctors to get a full understanding of your injury and any limitations that your injury has caused you.

Damages that your attorney will fight for include:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Physical therapy
  • Rehabilitation
  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Emotional pain and suffering
  • Future medical bills
  • Future lost wages

How do I Hire the Right Car Accident Lawyer ? There Are so Many!

Yes, there are A LOT of personal injury attorneys out there. So how do you know you’ve hired the right one?

You may have been tempted to call that “big-time” lawyer you saw on TV or on those huge billboards plastered all over. And you’re not the only one. With so much exposure, they get an assembly line of clients.

But are they any good? Or do they just seem “big-time” because they can afford so many commercials?

You can hire them, but don’t be surprised if you feel like you were treated like just another client on their assembly line. Just another number. Just another case.

What we have that the big TV firms can’t come close to offering is that we make it personal. We welcome you in as part of the family and fight for you like one of our own.

You need someone whose only interest is your best interest. Someone who will compassionately fight hard for you against the big bullies of the world – like insurance companies.

When you are injured in a wreck, you don't just need a car accident lawyer—you need a trustworthy advocate and confidant. Someone who will understand the physical pain and stress you are experiencing.

We only accept a limited number of cases each year because we want to ensure you and your case receive the time and attention that you deserve.

Injured by an 18 Wheeler? You Need an Experienced Reserve Truck Accident Lawyer

Accidents involving large work trucks or 18 wheelers are much more serious than your average car crash. When an accident occurs with an 18 wheeler, the effects are often catastrophic and the victim is left with very serious personal injuries. Occasionally wrongful death can tragically result from an 18 wheeler wreck.

Driving around Reserve, it’s almost impossible to avoid the work trucks and 18 wheelers that drive through each day. If you were involved in a wreck with an 18 wheeler, don’t try to handle the case yourself.

The lawyers at the trucking companies are skilled at deflecting accountability and getting them to pay for your injuries can be difficult.

They may say that the accident wasn’t their fault, or they may try blame the driver and say that the company had nothing to do with the accident.

An experienced truck accident attorney knows their tricks and will fight the trucking company to make sure that your settlement is fair and is enough to cover your damages.

Regardless of the reason for your personal injury, you have rights under the law that our team will fight for to make you whole again and bring you peace of mind.
