I tried to exit to let the storm pass, and was only doing about 50 on the highway as traffic was moving slow in the storm. As soon as I normally applied the brakes the back end hydroplaned and I laid down in the exit. No other vehicles involved. My bike was not damaged . Someone called 911,... Read more »
You can fight this ticket, but weather was not the only cause. That said, you should still fight the ticket and the best way to do this is to hire a traffic ticket/criminal defense lawyer in the jurisdiction where the ticket was issued ---he should be able to provide you your options.
He lied and she had a license. Gave statement saying he was dishonest. Will my insurance pay for damages to private property (gate) and my car? I have full coverage
A Louisiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. For your car, a full coverage plan should cover that - check with your policy declaration sheet or with your agent to be certain. For the storage facility/gate damages, that could depend on the scope of your... Read more »
I was uninsured during the accident and was at fault. I cant pay the amount in full but it was sent to a collections. I want a letter saying it's been handled & I'm paying for it overtime....I need it to present to the judge.
They should give you one. Hopefully, you are paying by check so the check is your receipt.

Pay it by check in full. Note on the check that it is payment in full and send it with a cover letter that you need a Release. Then get insurance.
Ins is working on settling but so far he is not accepting. If he decides to sue us, we are worried about some money my husband just inherited. Is there a way to avoid them getting it by putting it in someone elses account?
First, you and your husband can hire a family law attorney to draft a post nuptial agreement, including cars.
Second, that post nuptial gets filed with the Clerk of Court and the Mortgages & Conveyances Office and is effective against 3d parties.
Third, he can donate the... Read more »
A Louisiana attorney could answer best, but your question remains open for three weeks. It's likely that railroad and other transportation regulations, either on the federal, state or local level, in addition to the standard operating practices of any reputable railroad would call for stopping...

An officer came out and made an accident report, took pictures of my car and took pictures of the pothole that did the damage. I contacted the city Risk Management Dept. and the basically told me they weren't liable because i'm the only one to ever report the problem. I was sent a letter... Read more »
A Louisiana attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for a week. Until you are able to consult with a local attorney, the City of Shreveport's line of reasoning holds true in many jurisdictions. It sounds like the legal theory they are applying is that they did not have notice of... Read more »
I stopped and sat on my horn but she didn’t hear me, and backed at a dangerous speed and cut to the left in order to leave via the only driveway and hit me in front of the drivers rear tire. The damage- estimated at $2700. She was going several MPH when her SUV hit my small truck. My insurance... Read more »
A Louisiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It's possible you could have a case; for a more definitive answer, one would need more details. And even with more facts, parking lot cases are often a mess. Many insurance carriers flip a coin over them when... Read more »
My son was killed in a car wreck. The state troopers requested a toxicology test done. Do I need a lawyer to request a copy of the report?
If you are next of kin, the Coroner's Office should be able tonsupplynulyou with a copy
No injuries reported and the other vehicle was unattended.
No you can't receive a ticket for an accident on private property. But you can be sued for property damage.
I own the truck but it was insured under my girl friends name who drives it daily .... we losing a 1000 a day with truck down I would like to sue for punitive damages as well
Do not know what "oding" means. Need an explanation of how he totaled your truck if it was parked.
I hydroplaned off the road and hit a concrete culvert at 45-50 mph. Single car crash, no other person was involved.
I'm sorry your post remains open for five weeks. At this point, you could contact a Louisiana attorney to see if they would offer a free initial consult to look into the matter. If this is something that might have fallen through the cracks with air bag recalls in recent years, if nothing... Read more »
It’s important to always carry insurance and see if you can afford Uninsured Motorist Insurance too. That will not help you now but may in the future. Call an attorney and see what your options are.
I was parked at an apartment complex and a tree from their property fell on my car. The owner of the duplex next door said he saw it leaning and had told the leasing agency of the apartments that it was dangerous and needed to be cut.
Absolutely. The property owner is 100% liable for the damage caused by trees on the owner's property
A Louisiana attorney would know this best, but your post remains open for four weeks. As a general abbreviation across the nation, TVB could mean Traffic Violations Bureau. 'Not sure about DLF. Good luck

Can I sue the insurance company for my injuries.
You already asked this question.
Car was paid for he got blue book value.But my hand I had to get screws put in my hand
I'm assuming you got a DWI? If not, you can sue your son and his insurance company. Watch his rates sky rocket.
or just the changes being made?
An attorney needs to look at both documents to tell you.
Attorney is saying we now have to pay his PI to get affidavit from at fault driver stating that is only insurance he or owner of vehicle he was driving has Also is telling us he can not disburse the check he already got from at faults insurance until get this affidavit and if he does disburse it...

There is a set off. So for instance IF the fault driver had $100,000 and you had $50,000 UM and you settle with the fault driver for $85,000, THEN the most you can get from your UM is $35,000 (cause you walked away from $15,000 of the fault driver's coverage). ALL medical care providers and... Read more »
Therefore, I missed tons of work And fell behind financially. However, I had just about enough saved up to re insure my car (which is currently parked in my driveway).
