Charbonnet Law Firm has handled car accident cases in New Orleans and Metairie through multiple changes in Louisiana injury law, including updates to filing deadlines, direct-action rules, and fault standards. These updates influence how cases are evaluated, negotiated, and handled in local courtrooms every day.
The firm has been rooted in New Orleans for more than 50 years, with three generations of attorneys representing injured clients across the region. That continuity brings a practical understanding of how Orleans Parish courts operate, how insurers approach local claims, and what actually influences outcomes in this jurisdiction.
Each case is handled from start to finish by a dedicated attorney. From the initial review through settlement or trial, the file is not passed between departments. When needed, medical experts and investigators are brought in strategically to strengthen the case rather than as a routine step.
The firm works on contingency, which means no fee up front and no fee at all unless your claim brings in a recovery. The focus remains on securing a recovery that reflects the full scope of the injury and its long-term impact.
