Louisiana Accident and Injury Laws
Negligence in the general sense just means carelessness. But negligence in the legal sense is a fairly complicated concept that attempts to determine whether or not a person acted carelessly when they shouldn’t have, whether that carelessness led to an injury, and whether and how much the injured party should be compensated. The links below provide Louisiana-specific information on legal claims arising from accidents and injuries -- including Bayou State laws related to the legal concept of negligence and state laws defining the time period in which a lawsuit must be filed after an accident or injury.
