After an injury, the road to justice can feel like a battle. You're hurt, overwhelmed, and the insurance company, they're not on your side.
So, how do you build a winning injury case?
-
Documenting everything — including the accident scene, injuries, witness info, and ongoing struggles.
-
Getting immediate medical treatment — both for health and to create essential evidence.
-
Being cautious with insurance companies — and letting a lawyer handle communication.
-
Understanding legal deadlines — which changed in Louisiana in 2024.
-
Tracking emotional damages — like anxiety and PTSD, using journals and therapy records.
-
Recording every expense — from co-pays to lost wages and home modifications.
-
Avoiding social media activity — as it can be used against your claim.
-
Hiring an experienced attorney — to gather evidence, negotiate, and represent you in court.
