Why These Trucks Are Especially Dangerous
Coal, logging, and refrigerated trucks present unique hazards — heavy and unstable loads, longer braking distances, and the demands of long-haul driving all increase the risk of serious accidents. When these vehicles crash, the results can be catastrophic.
What Damages Are Available?
Victims may recover economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, property damage) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life).
How Long Do I Have to File in Louisiana?
In Louisiana, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit.
