Louisiana Personal Injury Lawyers
When you are involved in an accident or otherwise injured due to someone else’s careless or reckless actions, it can be difficult to know what to do next. You may need extensive, ongoing medical care—but how will you pay for that treatment? What if you are unable to return to work for weeks or months following the accident? Who is responsible for these costs, not to mention the intangible pain and suffering you have experienced?
At Jones & Hill, we understand the far-reaching impact serious injuries have, not just on victims but on their loved ones and family members, as well.
We know that the immediate aftermath of an accident can be overwhelming and chaotic, especially if you were rushed to the hospital and/or face ongoing treatment and surgeries.

Areas of Practice
Agriculture Accidents
Agriculture Accidents
Agricultural law is a complex practice area that revolves around one thing: protecting the rights of farmers. At Jones & Hill, we are dedicated to helping farmers and other agricultural workers who have been injured on the job. We work daily with farmers and ranchers who have been hurt or need help with other related issues, such as environmental concerns and dangerous chemicals.
Medical Malpractice
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider, such as a doctor or hospital, fails to provide a patient with an acceptable standard of care, leading to injury or death. These are highly complex claims, and it is important that you work with a skilled legal team if you believe you are the victim of a medical provider’s negligence or misconduct.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle Accidents
We are experienced in representing people injured in motorcycle accidents and can work with you to determine damages and help you fight for the compensation you deserve. Serious injuries resulting from motorcycle accidents often result in large medical expenses and suffering; we know how to fight for the full recovery you are owed.
Offshore Injuries
Offshore Injuries
Working offshore is an exciting and rewarding career, but the industry presents many risks. With an ever-changing environment, accidents can happen on vessels or rigs, often with devastating consequences. Offshore injury cases are complicated due to the rules and regulations under the Jones Act, but our firm is familiar with the law and can help you understand your rights.
Car Accidents

When looking for the best attorney for your car accident claim in Louisiana, we encourage you to do your research and ask questions. At Jones & Hill, we have been fighting for the injured in central and southwest Louisiana for more than 35 years. Our attorneys have a proven record of success in all types of complex and challenging car accident claims.
Truck Accidents
Truck Accidents
Thousands of people are injured and killed in collisions with semi-trucks, 18-wheelers, and other commercial vehicles every year. These types of claims are highly complex due to the various complicating factors involved. At Jones & Hill, we know how to take on negligent trucking companies and their insurance carriers and are ready to fight for you.
Wrongful Death
Wrongful Death
When a person dies due to someone else’s careless, reckless, or wrongful conduct in Louisiana, certain surviving family members are permitted to file a wrongful death lawsuit. While no amount of financial compensation can bring your loved one back, a successful claim can provide justice and allow you and your family to heal.

AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS
Providing Exhaustive & Detailed Case Preparation
At Jones & Hill, we strive to recover favorable settlements for our clients in as little time as possible. However, we also recognize that some cases cannot be resolved quickly and must proceed to litigation. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial, a strategy that helps us stay a step ahead of the defense and ensure that we are always ready for the unexpected.
Our attorneys will be able to assist you in determining the total amount of compensation which you may be entitled to receive. We will take into consideration all factors of your claim, including your financial losses, the severity of your injury, and the general damages you have suffered. We handle serious, complex litigation and utilize techniques in trial preparation that less than 1% of attorneys across the country use, such as conducting numerous focus groups for all for all litigation matters and employing psycho-dramatic techniques during the discovery phase.
PERSONAL INJURY
Frequently Asked Questions
This question is virtually impossible to answer without discussing your situation in detail with an attorney. In short, there is no way to accurately guess the value of your case. Every case is different and will vary in value depending on factors such as the type of injuries suffered, the amount of evidence proving the at-fault party’s liability, the long-term impact of your injuries, the amount of insurance coverage available, and the negotiation skills of your attorney.
