    When you’re hurt in an accident, life can change in an instant. Between medical bills, missed work, and pain that won’t go away, it can feel impossible to move forward. At Brandt & Sherman Injury Lawyers, we’ve spent decades helping injured people across Louisiana—especially here in New Orleans—get the justice and compensation they deserve.

    We know how unpredictable life in New Orleans can be. From the busy streets of Uptown and the French Quarter to the bustling traffic on I-10 and the Crescent City Connection, accidents can happen anywhere. Our attorneys have seen how car crashes, workplace injuries, and slip and fall accidents impact families throughout the city, and we fight every day to make sure our clients are not left to face the consequences alone.

    Whether you were hurt on the job near the Port of New Orleans, in a wreck on Claiborne Avenue, or during a weekend in the Garden District, our team is ready to help. We know the local courts, the insurance companies, and how to build strong cases for people who need real results.

    Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in New Orleans

    Our firm represents clients in all types of serious injury claims. No case is too complex, and no insurance company is too powerful to hold accountable. Some of the most common cases we handle in New Orleans include:

    • New Orleans Car Accidents: From collisions on busy city streets to highway pileups, our attorneys know how to investigate crashes, deal with insurance adjusters, and pursue maximum compensation for your injuries.
    • New Orleans Workers’ Compensation Claims: If you were injured on the job, we can help you file or appeal your claim to recover medical coverage, lost wages, and long-term benefits.
    • New Orleans Car Accident Lawyer: Our firm has recovered millions for victims of negligence in Louisiana and can guide you through every step of your personal injury claim.

    If your type of injury isn’t listed here, we still encourage you to contact our office. Our team handles everything from slip and fall injuries to wrongful death cases.

    What to Do After an Accident in New Orleans

    If you’ve been injured:

    1. Get medical attention immediately, even if your injuries seem minor.
    2. Avoid speaking with insurance companies before you’ve talked to an attorney.
    3. Keep records of everything—medical bills, police reports, photos, and witness names.
    4. Call a personal injury lawyer who understands New Orleans and Louisiana law.

    The sooner you act, the stronger your case can be.

    FAQs About Personal Injury Cases in New Orleans

    In Louisiana, the deadline to file most personal injury claims is one year from the date of the accident. This short timeframe makes it critical to contact an experienced New Orleans personal injury lawyer as soon as possible so evidence doesn’t disappear and your right to compensation is protected.

    Depending on your case, you may be able to recover medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, property damage, and future care costs. If your injuries were caused by a crash, our New Orleans car accident attorneys can help pursue full compensation through insurance or a lawsuit.

    Not necessarily. Many personal injury cases are settled outside of court through negotiations with insurance companies. However, if a fair settlement isn’t offered, our trial-tested attorneys are ready to take your case before a judge or jury.

    You pay no upfront fees. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. Learn more about how our New Orleans injury lawyers can start building your case at no cost.

    Bring any documents related to your accident—police reports, medical records, photos, witness information, and insurance details. These help us understand your case and start building a strong claim right away.
