How long do I have to file a claim after a hit-and-run accident in Louisiana?

Available 24/7/365

Under Louisiana Civil Code Article 3493.1, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit if the injury occurred on or after July 1, 2024. For accidents before that date, the previous one-year deadline applies. These deadlines are strict, so it's important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
