Knowledge at Your Fingertips FAQs & Insights to Guide You Forward

  • Are You Required to Add Your Child to Auto Insurance?

    It’s your choice as to whether to add your child to your insurance or purchase a new policy, but all drivers in the state of Louisiana are required to have auto insurance at the following levels:

    • $15,000 per person for bodily injury
    • $30,000 per collision for bodily injury
    • $25,000 for property damage
  • What Happens if I Didn't List My Kid on Car Insurance?
    As a rule of thumb, any licensed driver in your household and one that uses your vehicle(s) on a regular basis should be listed on your insurance policy — including your teenagers. A proactive approach to ensuring your family is covered can save you tens of thousands of dollars in legal bills and a number of other unpleasant headaches.
  • What Happens if My Teen Gets to An Accident in Someone Else's Car?
    If your teen borrows a friend’s car and gets into an accident while driving, things could get pretty complicated. While the driver’s insurance coverage will be the one expected to pay for your child’s mistake (if they had permission to drive), it could quickly become messier. Contact us today to schedule your free, no-pressure consultation to discuss your case.
