Working With a Lawyer After an Accident
If you were injured in a car accident, you are probably worried about what to do next. Few things are more frightening and frustrating than getting injured because of another person's negligence. Whether you are wondering who will pay your medical bills or what you should do to begin filing your claim, an experienced New Orleans personal injury attorney can help. I bring more than 15 years of legal experience to my firm, The Law Office of Alan Kansas, L.L.C., and I can help make sure you receive the help you need. I help individuals on the Westbank, New Orleans, and throughout Louisiana address concerns involving:
- Auto accidents: I help clients receive compensation for lost wages, car damages, medical bills and personal injuries.
- First steps after an accident: It is important to know and understand the first steps you should take after an accident. These include contacting the police, getting the other person's personal and insurance information, making sure you receive prompt and adequate medical care.
- Types of compensation in accident claims: I help clients receive all the compensation they deserve, including lost wages, physical pain and suffering, mental anguish, inconvenience, property damage, potential loss of use of vehicle and potential loss of consortium.
- Who pays the bills: I help individuals receive compensation from the appropriate sources, including the negligent party and his or her insurance company. You may also receive support from your own insurance company, including compensation under your uninsured or underinsured motorists coverage.
- Accidents caused by cell phone use: If you were in an accident that was caused by a negligent driver on his or her cell phone, I can help you hold that party liable.
- Premises liability: Whether you suffered from a sidewalk injury, a store injury or another type of slip-and-fall, one of the most important parts of a case is determining what caused the accident. I work with individuals to prove that there was not appropriate monitoring, that the owner created or knew about the unsafe situation, and he or she did not take the appropriate steps to fix it.
