Home to New Orleans and so much more, Louisiana is also unfortunately home to car accidents, slip and falls, and all sorts of accidents every single day.
It is nothing special when it comes to accidents like these.
Fortunately for you, if you were in an accident in Louisiana, you can apply for a lawsuit loan from Delta Lawsuit Loans.
Louisiana lawsuit settlement loans gives you the freedom to continue living your life in the uncertain and challenging time between your accident and the time when you settle.
You can use your Louisiana pre settlement loans for anything you want; we don’t put any restrictions on how you may spend the money.
Additionally, you only pay back the settlement loan if you win your case. If you lose, you don’t pay us back.
Car Accident Injury in Louisiana
The Highway Safety Research Group and Louisiana State University reported about 166,000 crashes in Louisiana in 2017, which means there was a crash in Louisiana nearly once every three minutes. The crashes caused 13,267 moderate to severe injuries.
After an accident, nothing takes precedence over ensuring the safety of all involved.
And that means your safety and health, too. It’s important to make sure the scene of the accident is safe following the collision to the best of your ability. If it’s at all possible to clear the road, exchange information with other drivers and to call the police or an ambulance, do so.
On top of that, you must make sure to report your accident to the appropriate authorities immediately if someone was injured or killed and if the accident caused at least $500 in property damage. In those cases which at least $100 of property damage resulted from the crash, you also have 24 hours to report the crash to the Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections.
Louisiana follows a pure comparative negligence rule when it comes to awarding damages in a car accident case. Each driver receives his or her damages minus the percentage of the accident for which he or she was responsible.
For example, if you suffered $500,000 worth of damages but were 20 percent responsible for the accident, the jury will subtract 20 percent from your damages, or $100,000, leaving you with $400,000.
Because Louisiana is a pure comparative negligence state, you can even collect damages if you were more than 50 percent responsible for the accident.
So with $500,000 in damages and 80 percent responsibility, you can still collect $100,000.
All of this assumes you file your lawsuit in time. If you wait past Louisiana’s one-year deadline to file a car accident lawsuit, you’ll probably end up with nothing.
Once you’re able, you should hire a lawyer to discuss your options as soon as possible after your accident because that one year clock starts the day you get into an accident, and you don’t want to cut off a potential lawsuit.
Once you’ve hired a lawyer, you can also apply for a car accident lawsuit to get cash months to years quicker than you would with just a lawsuit.
In all that time, you could be waiting for cash, or you could be moving forward with your life by applying for Louisiana pre settlement cash advance from us.
Slip and Falls in Louisiana
Slip and falls––in which someone falls and injures himself on another person’s property––are among the most common forms of personal injury lawsuits, and they’re among the most common cases we see in requests for lawsuit loans.
Before you read any further, you should make sure you still have the option of suing. Louisiana gives you one year from the date of your slip and fall to file a lawsuit.
If you wait to file past that date, chances are slim to none that your lawsuit will be allowed to go forward. Keeping that in mind, you should work to get a move on your lawsuit as soon as possible after your slip and fall.
Louisiana’s one-year deadline is very short compared to other states’, and it doesn’t give you much wiggle room for delays. Delays can be unexpected, so avoid losing access to a critical option by hiring a lawyer soon after your accident.
If you’re within the statute of limitations and you sue, you should be aware that Louisiana follows a pure comparative negligence rule when it comes to slip and falls.
You can still receive compensation if you were partially or even mostly responsible, but your award will be reduced proportionately to your share of the blame.
So if you were 40 percent responsible in which you sustained $15,000 in damages, you can still collect 60 percent of $15,000, or $9,000.
If you were 60 percent responsible, you can still collect 40 percent, or $6,000.
The number of your damages and the percentage of fault you bear are decided by a jury at trial, but they’ll also come up during settlement talks because the property owner knows it will affect the jury’s decision.
Once you’ve done so, you can take a few minutes to apply. We’ll discuss with your attorney the details of your case.
And, if you’re approved, we’ll send your cash in as little as 24 hours. It’s really that easy. You can also contact us for more information
Louisiana Cities We Fund
No matter where in Louisiana your case occurred, we can fund it. That includes cases in:
New Orleans
Baton Rouge
Lafayette
Lake Charles
Shreveport
Kenner
Bossier City
Monroe
Houma
Alexandria
New Iberia
Slidell
Central
Ruston
But these are examples, not the whole list. That means if you were involved in a case outside one of these cities, you can still be eligible for Louisiana lawsuit funding, as long as your case occurred there or one of the other states we fund.
A Rich History of Louisiana
Louisiana’s most famous city is New Orleans, renowned most perhaps for its annual Mardi Gras celebration. New Orleans features sites including the French Quarter and its Bourbon Street.
New Orleans is home to cultural sites and attractions including the National WWII Museum, the Audubon Zoo, the Aquarium of the Americas, City Park, the New Orleans Museum of Art, and Preservation Hall.
Louisiana’s got a ton to offer outside of New Orleans as well. Lafayette is home to excellent food and several superb museums. You can also hike and relax in Fontainebleau State Park, Kisatchie National Forest, and parks all over the state.
Louisiana Settlement Funding for Your Lawsuit
You can punish yourself by waiting for ages to settle. Or you can get cash as soon as tomorrow from us. It’s your choice, but we think it’s a pretty simple one.
To make matters simpler, we won’t check your credit or employment, we won’t put any restrictions on how you can use the money we give you, we won’t collect a penny until you’ve settled, and we’ll never collect the “loan” if you lose.
All of those are things a bank will do if you take out a bank loan. Our lawsuit loans are non-recourse, which means we can’t collect if you lose; the loan is tied directly to your case.
But if you can get bank loans in the first place, you have to be repaid whether you win or lose. You avoid that serious risk by taking out a pre-settlement cash advance from us instead.
