Livingston Parish residents need to know why their workers comp or auto accident case is taking so long. About 80% of the time why a case will take so long is simply because it was never reported timely or properly. Insurance companies upon receipt of a claim normally have an obligation to contact the parties within 24 hours. Many times employers will not report a workers' compensation claim because it may affect their rates, they may not have workers' compensation insurance, or they may not think it's important enough to report it and think you may forget about it.
​Additionally, when you're in a car accident, especially in a parking lot, police will never come out because it's private property and the other side will probably not report the claim and hope that it will go away. We know things never go away and they have to be dealt with timely. Schwartz Law Firm has experience in many, many cases when clients come in and we find out the case was never recorded. We know what to do. We'll get our investigators on the case, we'll order the medical records, contact all your witnesses, and get this case moving forward toward resolution. We love to work with clients that have cases that need resolution and are legitimately owed compensation. Please contact us today if you have any questions about a case that's never been reported.
