Experienced Shreveport-Bossier City Personal Injury Attorneys Who Treat You Like Family

For more than 40 years, the law firm of Rice & Kendig has been helping people when they get hurt in a car or truck accident in Shreveport-Bossier City and throughout North Louisiana. We truly care about our clients and devote all our knowledge, skills and resources toward getting a great result every time. As a client of Rice & Kendig, you’ll be treated like family and know your case is being handled by a team who understands what you are going through and is committed to getting you the help and compensation you need and deserve. If you are looking for a law firm with the compassion to help you through this trying time and the dedication to achieve success, then you’ve found a home at Rice & Kendig.

Our law firm has over 40 years of experience handling personal injury and wrongful death cases in Shreveport-Bossier City and North Louisiana, including a great deal of jury trial experience. Your case may not go to trial; most cases don’t. But when insurance companies know they are up against a law firm that goes to trial and wins, they are more likely to settle out of court for a fair amount, without playing games or trying to lowball a settlement. After handling thousands of cases like yours, we know how much your case is worth and how to work toward getting the full value of your claim.

From your first consultation with Rice & Kendig, you’ll meet with your attorney personally, and that’s who you’ll get to represent you. You won’t have to worry about having your case handed off to a junior associate with lesser experience or a non-attorney case manager. Our Shreveport injury lawyers are here for you whenever you need us.

Call Rice & Kendig for help with any personal injury or wrongful death matter in Shreveport-Bossier City or North Louisiana. Below are just some of the firm’s main areas of practice.
