Vehicle Injuries
What is the difference between Car & Automotive injury law and other types of law?
Car & Automotive Accident Law is a subcategory of personal injury law focused on traffic incidents. Unlike criminal law, which seeks to punish the offender, the aim here is to compensate the victim for their losses. This can include medical bills, lost wages, and even emotional distress.
What are the different types of Car & Automotive accidents?
Accidents under this category can be diverse and occur in various contexts:
Car Accidents: Including fender benders, head-on collisions, and multi-car pile-ups.
Motorcycle Accidents: Often resulting in severe injuries due to the lack of protection for the rider.
Truck Accidents: Involving commercial trucks and potentially more severe damages due to the size and weight of the vehicles.
Uber/Lyft Accidents: Special cases involving ride-sharing services.
How often do injuries due to Car & Automotive accidents happen each year?
Statistically, the United States sees over 6 million car accidents each year, resulting in about 3 million injuries. New Orleans and the Louisiana Gulf South region are no exception, with high-traffic areas and busy highways contributing to a significant number of vehicular accidents.
What are personal injuries from Car & Automotive accidents?
"Car & Automotive" injuries refer to any physical or psychological harm sustained in accidents involving cars, motorcycles, trucks, or any other motor vehicles. This specific area of personal injury law aims to assist victims in receiving just compensation for their suffering and losses.
Examples include, but are not limited to, whiplash in a rear-end collision, traumatic brain injury from a high-speed crash, or fractures and sprains in a motorcycle accident.

A Proven Reputation
"Forrest Cressy James is an amazing law firm that provides tremendous attention and care to all their clients and their needs.
When I was injured in my accident, Nick was never more than a call away from answering my questions and counseling through the process of rehab, recovery, and gaining restitution. I never once felt as if I was just another customer and instead felt like I was a friend and family member who they were willing to fight for to the end.
FCJ will always be the most trusted firm in my book."

“After trying to handle my personal injury claim on my own, and becoming completely overwhelmed, I reached out to Byron for assistance.
My claim was resolved quickly for well over six figures and most importantly, I had peace-of-mind in knowing that I wasn’t taken advantage of by insurance companies.
If you want a law firm that is professional, efficient, and treats you like a person, not just a “file number,” Forrest Cressy James is your team."

"I have had at least two occasions with accidents where the other drivers were not honest with their insurance company. It’s a situation police don’t always have time for right away, and my city has tourists that will treat it as if it never happened.
I can honestly say I didn’t have any stress in the cases. Not from the insurance companies (mine and theirs) and most importantly no pressure from my attorneys.
There was never a moment I felt alone in this. A+ from start to end. I ended up recovering $150,000 thanks to Byron and Eliza."
