Our Comprehensive Personal Injury Legal Services
Bloom Legal Network handles a broad range of personal injury claims, offering personalized legal strategies tailored to the facts of each case. We take the time to understand how your injury has impacted your life, then build a claim designed to maximize your recovery.
Below is an overview of how we support our clients:
Vehicle & Traffic Accident Claims
Motor vehicle accidents are one of the leading causes of serious injuries in Louisiana. Whether you were involved in a minor collision or a life-altering crash, our New Orleans personal injury attorneys investigate every detail of your case.
This includes reviewing police reports, medical records, witness statements, and available video footage, while aggressively negotiating with insurance companies on your behalf.
Common accident types we handle include:
• Car accidents (rear-end, T-bone, head-on)
• Truck and 18-wheeler accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Bicycle and pedestrian accidents
• Wrongful death resulting from traffic collisions
Common injuries in these cases often include whiplash and soft tissue injuries, broken bones and fractures, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and permanent scarring or disfigurement.
Slip and Fall & Premises Liability
Property owners in Louisiana have a legal duty to maintain reasonably safe conditions for visitors. When hazardous conditions lead to a slip and fall or other premises-related injury, victims may be entitled to compensation.
Our premises liability attorneys handle cases involving wet floors, broken stairs, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, inadequate security, and other dangerous conditions. These accidents frequently occur in retail stores, grocery stores, restaurants, hotels, apartment complexes, and on public sidewalks. We work to prove negligence and pursue damages for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Dog Bite Injuries
While dogs can be beloved companions, dog bites can cause severe physical and emotional trauma, especially to children. Louisiana dog bite laws hold dog owners responsible for injuries caused by their animals.
Our dog bite injury lawyers help victims pursue claims for medical treatment, scarring, emotional distress, and other damages resulting from unprovoked attacks. We understand the sensitivity of these cases and provide compassionate legal support.
- Common Injuries:
- Puncture wounds and lacerations
- Infections and nerve damage
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Psychological trauma and PTSD
Medical Malpractice, Workplace Injuries & Other Serious Claims
Our expertise extends to a wide array of other personal injury claims that arise from negligence or wrongful acts. If you’ve been injured and believe another party is responsible, we encourage you to contact us for a consultation to discuss your specific situation.
Here are some of the other personal injury services we offer:
Medical Malpractice & Nursing Home Neglect
When healthcare professionals fail to meet the standard of care, the results can be devastating. Our attorneys help victims of medical negligence pursue justice for injuries caused by doctors, hospitals, or nursing facilities.
Cases may involve:
- Surgical errors, misdiagnosis, or delayed treatment
- Birth injuries and OB/GYN negligence
- Nursing home abuse and neglect
- Medication errors and charting mistakes
Workplace & Construction Injuries
Job-related accidents can lead to long-term disability, pain, or even death. In addition to workers’ compensation, you may have a personal injury claim against third parties involved in the incident.
Our legal partners handle:
- Construction site accidents and scaffolding falls
- Industrial and machinery-related injuries
- Third-party liability claims
- Unsafe working conditions or lack of training
Wrongful Death & Catastrophic Injury
Losing a loved one or suffering a life-changing injury affects every aspect of life. These cases often involve complex damages — from financial support to loss of companionship.
We represent families and individuals in:
- Wrongful death lawsuits
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Amputation, severe burns, or long-term disability
Product Liability & Dangerous Conditions
When a product malfunctions or a property hazard goes unaddressed, victims may have grounds for a lawsuit. These claims often involve large corporations or property owners — and require experienced legal representation.
Examples include:
- Defective consumer goods or auto parts
- Hazardous conditions on cruise ships or in public venues
- Unsafe children’s products or home equipment
- Boating and recreational vehicle accidents
Important: Understanding Louisiana’s Personal Injury Statute of Limitations
Personal injury claims in Louisiana are time-sensitive, and missing a deadline can permanently bar your case.
⚠️ Critical Deadline Update: For injuries occurring on or after July 1, 2024, Louisiana law allows two years (previously one year) to file a personal injury lawsuit.
While this extension provides more time, waiting can still seriously damage your claim. Evidence disappears, witnesses become unavailable, and insurance companies gain leverage the longer you wait.
Key Louisiana injury law facts to know:
• Statute of limitations: Two years for incidents on or after July 1, 2024
• Comparative fault: Your compensation may be reduced if you share partial responsibility
• Insurance adjusters: Early settlement offers are often far below the true value of your claim
Bloom Legal Network ensures all filings are completed correctly and on time, protecting your rights from the very beginning of your case.
What Compensation May Be Available to You
Depending on the circumstances of your injury, you may be entitled to recover compensation for:
• Past and future medical expenses
• Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• Property damage
• Punitive damages in rare cases involving extreme negligence
Our attorneys conduct thorough investigations, work with medical and financial experts when necessary, and pursue every available avenue to maximize your recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury in New Orleans
If you’ve been injured in an accident, your actions in the first few minutes and hours are critical. Start by seeking medical attention right away, even if your injuries seem minor, some symptoms may appear later. Next, report the incident to the police or the property owner, depending on where the injury occurred. If possible, take photos of the scene, your injuries, and anything else that may be relevant (like road conditions, broken equipment, etc.). Get contact information from any witnesses who saw what happened. Most importantly, avoid giving statements to insurance companies until you speak with an attorney. At Bloom Legal Network, we can guide you through the process from day one and help you avoid mistakes that could hurt your case.
Yes, you can. Louisiana follows a comparative fault system, which means that being partially at fault does not bar you from recovering damages. Instead, any compensation you’re awarded will be reduced by your percentage of fault. These situations can get complicated quickly. The insurance company may try to shift more blame onto you to reduce what they owe. That’s where we come in. At Bloom Legal Network, we work hard to push back against these tactics and make sure your side of the story is fully represented.
At Bloom Legal Network, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t have to pay anything upfront. We only get paid if we successfully recover compensation for you. This allows you to pursue justice without worrying about legal fees or costs while you focus on your recovery. This model also ensures that your attorney is motivated to get the best possible outcome in your case. If you don’t win, you don’t pay.
After July 1, 2024, you have two years from the date of the accident or injury to file a lawsuit in Louisiana. For injuries occurring before July 1, 2024, you only have 1 year. This deadline, known as the statute of limitations, is strictly enforced by courts. If you wait too long, you may lose your right to recover compensation, even if you have a strong case. That’s why it’s so important to contact Bloom Legal Network as soon as possible. We can help you gather evidence, file on time, and protect your legal rights from the start.
