When you attend a concert, festival, parade, or sporting event in Louisiana, organizers and venue owners are generally required to keep you safe. If their failure to do so caused you harm, Louisiana law allows you to hold them accountable for your injuries.

This covers emergency treatment, hospital stays, surgeries, rehabilitation, and any future care you need.

You shouldn’t lose money because of what happened. We make sure you’re paid for missed work, reduced earning ability, or long-term disability.

This is compensation for physical pain, emotional trauma, and loss of enjoyment of life.

If your injury means ongoing medical needs or permanent limitations, we fight to get you paid for that too.

Whether the incident just happened or you’re already home, these steps protect you and your claim:

Even if symptoms seem minor, adrenaline can hide serious injuries. Establishing medical records early links your injury directly to the event.

Notify venue staff or security and ask for a copy of the incident report. Don’t sign anything that releases the venue from liability or accept vouchers in exchange for giving up your rights.

If safe to do so, take photos of overcrowding, broken railings, poor lighting, lack of security, or unsafe equipment.

We’ll review your case at no cost and act immediately to preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and protect your rights.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my ticket says the venue isn’t responsible?
Fine-print waivers may not eliminate liability under Louisiana law — especially when safety rules are violated.

Can I sue if the injury happened at a parade or public event?

Yes, but claims against political subdivisions, cities, or parishes generally follow special rules. Acting quickly is critical.

How long do I have to file a claim?
Louisiana law generally allows two years from the date of the injury. Missing the deadline can permanently bar your case.

What if the insurance company offers a quick settlement?
Early offers are often far less than what your case is worth especially before treatment is complete.

Do I have to pay you upfront?
No. We work on a contingency fee basis which means we only get paid if you win your case. Our fees are taken from that settlement or judgment amount.
