How Long Do You Have to File an Injury Claim in Alexandria, LA?.2509021731017.png)
In Louisiana, a personal injury claim generally must be filed within two years for injuries from accidents on or after July 1, 2024. The state calls this deadline "prescription" rather than a statute of limitations. Claims that involve a government entity can carry different or additional requirements.
The deadline is tied to the date of injury, so the calendar can keep running while a person is still in treatment. Injuries that surface slowly or need long follow-up care do not necessarily pause it. It is crucial to understand that claims from before July 2024 fall under the older one-year period, which is the previous timeline that Louisiana had.
It is important to gather medical records, billing statements, and insurance correspondence early to keep the paperwork from becoming a bottleneck.
Claims can involve several insurers and it can be hard to sort out which policy applies and which date starts the clock takes time. A car accident lawyer can confirm the deadline and track the dates while the person focuses on treatment.
