Schedule Your Free Consultation Today

Under Louisiana's strict statute of limitations, you typically have only one year from the date of an accident to file a personal injury claim. Delaying can result in critical evidence being lost and witness memories fading. Contact The Law Office of Stephen C. Gaubert today to schedule a free initial consultation. We operate on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront, and we only collect a fee if we successfully recover a settlement or verdict for you.
