Deadly Car Wrecks in Louisiana
Car crashes only take a few seconds to impact the lives of those involved. These wrecks can vary tremendously in their severity depending on the circumstances of the incident. Unfortunately, a high percentage of these accidents result in death.
Statistics from 2016 show that 486 occupants of passenger vehicles were killed in collisions in Louisiana that year. When a victim is killed in an accident, their surviving family members often have to take on the resulting damages. In some cases, family members are able to partner with a Louisiana wrongful death attorney to hold the at-fault party accountable for their actions.
