Frequently asked questions

How many firms are listed in New Orleans, Louisiana?

This directory lists 2 firms serving New Orleans, Louisiana. Listing facts come from firm websites or from the firms themselves. The count covers every listed firm, not only firms that take cases involving scald burns. Listings are not sorted or filtered by case type.

How long do I have to file a scald burns lawsuit in Louisiana?

The Louisiana statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is 2 years (La. Civ. Code art. 3493.1). Claims against a government body usually run on a much shorter separate notice deadline. Missing either one generally ends the claim regardless of its merits, so the filing date matters more than almost any other early decision.
