Automobile accidents are a significant cause of death and injury here in Louisiana and in the United States at large. In 2002, more than 94,000 adults over the age of 20 and older died as a result of unintentional injuries with motor vehicles responsible for 40% of these deaths. Motor-vehicle accidents caused 2,400,000 disabling injuries in 2004. Total motor-vehicle costs include lost wages, medical expenses, administrative expenses, motor-vehicle property damage, and employer costs were estimated at $240.6 billion in the United States.

Auto accidents can result when drivers speed, improperly attempt left turns, neglect to yield at a stop sign or red light or otherwise drive carelessly. The US Department of Transportation estimates that the average driver will narrowly avoid an automobile accident one to two times per month and all will average some type of collision every 6 years.

Automobile accident lawsuits often involve insurance policies and the law related to such policies. Understanding insurance law is important to guaranteeing maximum recovery. An licensed Louisiana attorney can help you get money for your property damage, physical injuries and associated disability, related loss earnings, as well as mental and physical pain and suffering. If a family member is affected by your injury it is possible that they may have a claim for their loss of love, affection, household services and support. Insurance claims adjusters may contact you and try to get you to accept a quick settlement. By retaining a licensed attorney, you can become fully aware of your legal rights and demand compensation for all of the types of damages allowed under law.
