Auto Accidents

Car accidents happen every day. When you are involved in an accident with another driver, you may be injured, and your car may be damaged. These expenses can add up quickly. You need someone who understands the process of dealing with insurance companies to help you move your claim along and get the reimbursement you deserve.

Prior to formation of his practice, Attorney Keith Magness represented and/or worked directly for many of the major auto insurers in the metropolitan New Orleans area (Allstate, State Farm, Liberty Mutual, Metropolitan and Safeco to name a few). Let Attorney Keith Magness and the Law Office of Keith L. Magness, LLC put this inside experience to work for you today. If we are unable to come to terms with the insurance companies, we will take them to court and fight for you.

Truck Accidents (Commercial and 18 Wheeler)

An accident with an 18 wheeler can be the most terrifying experience of your life. Given their size and weight, 18 wheelers can do an unbelievable amount of damage to your car, and can cause massive injury to you.

If you have been involved in an accident with an 18 wheeler, contact us immediately. We’ll contact all the parties involved to begin working to get what you deserve.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents occur in the hundreds of thousands each year, and are on the rise for many reasons: more good weather days, the removal of helmet restrictions in some states, and the like.

While insurance companies are required by law to provide compensation to victims of motorcycle accidents, getting a fair settlement for your motorcycle accident can be difficult. That is why you need a skilled motorcycle accident attorney from the Law Office of Keith L. Magness, LLC on your side, fighting for your rights.

Company Vehicle Accidents

Company vehicles seem to be everywhere, clogging the roads and pushing their way through traffic. These businesses will fight to minimize their losses, and would prefer that you negotiate with them directly, without hiring an attorney. Don’t make that mistake. Insurance companies and corporations are well-schooled in negotiating with unrepresented accident victims. Their goal is to pay injured victims as little as possible.

No matter how big or small, if the vehicle has a name on it, a New Orleans car accident attorney from the Law Office of Keith L. Magness, LLC will fight hard for every dollar you deserve for your medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and your pain and suffering.

Bus Accidents

Similar to company vehicles, busses seem to be everywhere. Bus companies will fight to minimize their losses, and would prefer that you negotiate with them directly, without hiring an attorney. Don’t make that mistake.

If you’ve been injured in a bus accident, a New Orleans bus accident attorney at the Law Office of Keith L. Magness, LLC will fight hard for every dollar you deserve for your medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and your pain and suffering.

Wrongful Death/Fatal Accidents

Losing a loved one in a fatal accident is difficult. Attorney Keith Magness knows this from experience, as he lost his mother in a car accident when he was 25.

As though losing a loved one isn’t painful enough, dealing with an insurance company can be just as miserable. These mega businesses will fight to minimize their losses and have seemingly infinite resources at their disposal. You should be compensated for your loss, but not at the expense of more headache and heartache. No one wants to pay. Someone has to make them.

If you’ve lost a loved one in an auto, truck, pedestrian or motorcycle accident, let Attorney Keith Magness and the Law Office of Keith L. Magness, LLC fight for you. We will ensure you receive every dollar you deserve for funeral expenses, medical bills, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship.

INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT?

If you’ve been injured in an auto accident, don’t fight the insurance company alone. They’ll try to minimize your claim. We’re here to make sure that doesn’t happen.
