After a car accident, the best witness may not be a person — it could be a camera.

Surveillance footage from nearby businesses, doorbell cameras, dashcams, or traffic cameras can help show who had the right of way, whether someone was speeding, or what happened in the moments leading up to a crash.

The problem? That footage may not be saved forever.

If you’ve been injured in an accident, acting quickly can be important when it comes to locating and preserving evidence that could support your claim.

Learn more about the role surveillance footage can play in a Louisiana auto accident claim in our latest blog.

Your phone can wait. The road can’t.

A text, notification, or quick glance at your phone may only take a few seconds, but that’s all it takes for a serious accident to happen.

When you’re behind the wheel, make driving your only priority. Put the phone away, keep your eyes on the road, and help keep everyone around you safe.

A few extra miles per hour can make a big difference in a crash.

Speeding gives drivers less time to react, increases the distance needed to stop, and can make the force of a collision much more severe. When a large commercial truck is involved, those risks can become even more dangerous.

Whether you’re driving on the interstate or a local road, slowing down and staying alert can help prevent a life-changing accident.

Not every oilfield accident is just a “freak accident.”

Sometimes, an injury can be the result of a bigger problem — inadequate training, poorly maintained equipment, short staffing, or a workplace culture that puts production ahead of safety.

When an oilfield worker is seriously hurt, it’s important to look beyond what happened in that moment and ask why it happened in the first place.

Learn more about how workplace safety culture can play a role in Louisiana oilfield injury cases in our latest blog.

You may feel okay right after a car accident — but that doesn’t always mean you walked away without an injury.

After a crash, adrenaline can temporarily mask pain and other symptoms. Neck stiffness, headaches, bruising, back pain, and other issues may not show up until hours or even days later.

That’s why it’s important to pay attention to how you feel after an accident and seek medical care if new or worsening symptoms develop.
