Local accident help
In New Iberia, most traffic — and most collisions — happens along US-90 and LA-14, the main routes tying this Acadiana town to Lafayette and the coast. Iberia Parish injury cases move through the 16th Judicial District Court, under Louisiana's two-year prescriptive deadline. If you were injured, we can connect you with an independent, licensed Louisiana attorney who practices in the New Iberia area.
