The Insurance Company Wants to Minimize Your Compensation

After you’ve been involved in a motor vehicle accident you are more than likely going to be speaking with a representative from the insurance company. But don’t be fooled. While they may sound friendly and like they want to help you, the reality is that they are not on your side. They work for the insurance company; and their goal is give you as little compensation as possible. As friendly as they may be, that’s just the reality of the situation. The way to ensure that you are treated fairly in the process is have experienced legal representation working as a shield for you. Once you have an attorney, two things happen: 1) you no longer have to handle the insurance company or any of the other issues that may arise in the course of handling your claim; and 2) you will have someone representing your interests above all, to see that you receive the full and fair compensation that you deserve following your accident.

Pay Nothing, Until You Win

Our policy is simple: you pay us nothing until we successfully resolve your case. That means you’ll have the full support of the experienced legal team at the Law Office of Keith L. Magness working for you. And you pay absolutely nothing until we reach a fair settlement from the insurance company or a successful verdict at trial. This includes all fees and expenses associated with handling your claim. How does this work? We work on what is known as a “contingency.” Meaning, that the payment of attorney fees is contingent upon receiving a financial recovery for you. Simply put, no recovery for you = no fees for us. Thus our incentive is fully aligned with getting you every dollar you rightfully deserve.

Our goal is to provide an outstanding client experience. After all, its our job to make your life easy. And to stand behind that, we offer all of our clients a 100% satisfaction guarantee. That means if you are not 100% satisfied with the service we are providing, you can terminate our relationship (within 30 days) and owe us absolutely nothing. No questions asked.

See below for all three of our exclusive guarantees…

 


 

My Exclusive Guarantees to You

Having personally gone through the legal process myself following motor vehicle accidents for both my mother and father, I experienced firsthand the frustration of dealing with the insurance company and New Orleans personal injury attorneys. So when I opened my own practice, I determined I was going to do things differently. I wanted to make the process as easy and fair as possible for my clients; and that they would not only receive outstanding client service, but honest treatment by the insurance company.

I believe my clients deserve a “wow” client service experience. To achieve that, I provide three exclusive guarantees to all my clients:

 

100% Satisfaction Guarantee

If you’re not satisfied with how we are handling your case, you can walk away and we will waive our fee

 

We Guarantee to Put More Money In Your Pocket Than the Insurance Company First Offered You

And if we can’t, we will reduce or waive our fees entirely

 

You Will Receive a Financial Recovery Regardless of the Cost of Medical Bills

Otherwise we will reduce or waive our attorney fees

About Metairie, Louisiana

Metairie, Louisiana is a suburban area located in southeastern Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, and is part of the New Orleans metropolitan area. It is situated on the eastern bank of the New Orleans and is contiguous to Kenner and Lakeview.

The city is known for its large number of Creole cottages and its many well-manicured lawns and gardens. The community has seen considerable growth over the past few decades, growing from a population of approximately 30,000 in 1970 to over 165,000 residents today.

The city has a significant African-American population and many historic antebellum homes.

Metairie is a historic, densely populated and cosmopolitan suburb of New Orleans located east of the city in Jefferson Parish.

Reese had come to America as a free man in 1847 and worked as a carpenter before starting his own construction company. He built Metairie’s first homes and churches, attracting other Irish immigrants to what was then known as “Little Dublin.

The city has been through a lot in its history. The area was once an important plantation, and Metairie remained a predominantly white town until the 1960s. Beginning in the 1970s, Metairie began to experience rapid population growth as African Americans started moving into the area. Today, Metairie is a thriving community with a diverse mix of cultures and races. The city has plenty of lush green spaces and stunning architecture, making it a popular tourist destination.
