Understanding the Intricacies of Local Injury Cases
New Orleans is a vibrant cultural hub filled with even more vibrant communities. However, these are also locations where serious accidents can occur. For example, the city’s iconic Causeway Bridge is known for both its length and its numerous traffic accidents. Bourbon Street is a draw for tourists and a nightlife hub, which means that it’s also the site of countless premises liability claims. And Lake Pontchartrain is the site of numerous boating accidents.
We are deeply familiar with these areas and the legal challenges that can arise due to injuries that occur there. Our law office’s central location positions us to serve our clients with tailored local knowledge. We’ve handled cases in the various NOLA courthouses, including the New Orleans Municipal Court, the New Orleans First City Court, and the New Orleans Civil District Court, so we’re familiar with local judges, rules, and law firms that may also be involved in your case.
