Livingston Parish

Livingston personal injury lawyers

The firm represents people from Livingston in injury and workers’ compensation matters, from its office in Baton Rouge.

Representing Livingston from one office in Baton Rouge

The firm keeps a single office, at 4660 O'Neal Lane, Suite A in Baton Rouge. It sits on the east side of the city, the first exit coming in from the east, which is the practical reason so many clients arrive from Livingston Parish and the communities along the I-12 and I-55 corridors.

There is no Livingston branch and the site will not pretend otherwise. What there is instead is a small practice where an attorney handles your file personally. Consultations are free and one on one with at least one attorney, and where getting to O'Neal Lane is difficult they can happen by phone.

Directions from Livingston to the office

What happens when you call

The first conversation is free and it is with an attorney rather than an intake worker. It covers what happened, what injuries there are, and what insurance exists, because those three things decide whether there is a claim worth pursuing.

From there the firm chases the documents that prove the case. Where there was a collision, the crash report matters and is often not available for one to two weeks, so in the meantime the facts come from the people who were there, and from any camera footage before it loops over. Where the injury happened at work, the pay records matter most, because the four full weeks before an injury generally set the compensation rate and most people have no way to check whether that arithmetic is right.

Then the medical record, which is what a claim is actually proved on. Consistent treatment, nothing missed, and a physician who records how the injury relates to what happened. Erik Tadda reads those records himself rather than working from a summary, and he is the one who speaks to the insurance adjuster.

At the end the firm makes a recommendation on settling or filing suit and explains the reasoning. The decision stays with you.

Erik Tadda talks uninsured motorist coverage. Uninsured motorist coverage comes up in a large share of the collision claims the firm handles.

  • After being rear ended I was nervous about having to deal with the insurance companies and following up to try and get enough money to replace my car, let alone cover any medical costs. Sarah not only made things super easy but she was incredibly supportive and encouraged me to seek the medical care I needed despite my anxieties about covering those costs.I was able to get through an incredibly stressful situation relatively painlessly thanks to all her work!

  • I was injured in an auto accident and knew that I would need an attorney. I googled attorneys near me and The Tadda Law Firm was an option. Made an appointment to talk to them. I was so impressed with the level of professionalism during that first meeting. SarahTorme was my attorney. She is fabulous! Very caring and empathetic. She asked how I was feeling each and every time we spoke. She took care of everything and kept me informed about the status of my case. I highly recommend this law firm!

  • They will get it done!!! Rick and the rest of the Tadda law firm helped me with a settlement from a car accident. They are very responsive, have a convenient texting system, helpful assistants (shout out to Shelby), and we’re flexible with my schedule even though I work nights. They are straightforward and willing to work with what you want. They’ve got a lot of experience with these things. As soon as I called them my life got so much easier, they took care of everything! I wish I had called them sooner after the accident. They took so much stress off my plate and I’m so grateful for where we got settled up at! Thanks Tadda Team!!!

  • My Husband dealt with workman’s comp for close to 4 years Mr. Erik fought for him and did excellent at helping him throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend his services and would definitely suggest giving him a call and having him work on your case. God works all things for good and definitely worked through my husbands case. I praise God that we had a lawyer that fought and did everything he could to help us end out on top.
