Louisiana car wreck law is a complex and ever-changing area of law. Here are some of the key provisions of Louisiana car wreck law:
Fault system: Louisiana is a fault state, which means that the party who is at fault for a car accident is responsible for the damages suffered by the other parties involved in the accident.
Pure comparative negligence: Louisiana is a pure comparative negligence state, which means that even if you are partially at fault for a car accident, you can still recover damages, but the amount of your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Compulsory insurance: Louisiana has a compulsory insurance law, which means that all drivers must have liability insurance coverage of at least $15,000 for bodily injury per person and $30,000 for bodily injury per accident.
Statute of limitations: The statute of limitations for filing a car accident lawsuit in Louisiana is one year from the date of the accident.
If you have been injured in a car accident in Louisiana, it is important to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible. An attorney can help you understand your legal rights and options and can represent you in a lawsuit if necessary.
