and complex. Or at least that's the way it seems to me. It can be
difficult for the average person to find their way through the legal
system without this specialized type of schooling. At this site find information about

The State of Louisiana has financial
responsibility/compulsory limits of 10/20/10. The first two figures
refer to bodily injury liability and the third figure to property damage
liability. 10/20/10 means coverage up to $20000 for all persons injured
in an accident, subject to a limit of $10000 for one individual, and
$10000 coverage for property damage.
The insurance industry and consumer groups generally recommend a minimum
of $100,000 of bodily injury protection per person and $300,000 per
accident since accidents may cost far more than the minimum limits
mandated by most states. You can find the latest information about
