Congratulations to Our Past Scholarship Program Winners!

The Parker Alexander law firm, headquartered in Monroe, has announced the winners of its 2024 scholarship essay contest. Participants were asked to propose original ideas for improving traffic safety in Northeast Louisiana.

The Parker Alexander scholarship application period will be open annually from January 1st to April 15th.

Alec Williams, 2024

The grand prize of $2,500 was awarded to Alec Williams from West Monroe. Her essay, "How the Integration of Traffic Signals at Rural Northeast Louisiana Intersections Can Reduce Traffic Collisions and Improve Traffic Safety", was insightful, feasible, and persuasive. Williams recently finished her first year at Louisiana Tech and plans to attend medical school.

Rosie Shultz, 2024

The second prize of $500 went to Rosie Shultz from Ruston. Her proposal to utilize artificial intelligence to analyze motor vehicle accident data to set more practical speed limits and to identify problematic intersections/highways was very original and well-supported with data. Shultz recently finished her first year at Brown University and plans to attend law school.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    • What Damages Am I Entitled to Recover?
      If you have suffered an injury and require medical treatment, we can help you obtain compensation for past and future medical treatment. Additionally, we can recover past and future lost wages. General damages such as pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, inconvenience, and emotional stress are also recoverable. In some cases, clients will be entitled to punitive damages (damages intended to punish the wrongdoer when the wrongdoer’s actions were reckless or intentional).
    • How Do I Determine the Value of My Claim?
      The amount of monetary compensation you are entitled to is dependent upon the unique circumstances involved in your case. Contact our attorneys today to schedule a consultation. We will review your case and determine what damages you’re entitled to recover.
    • Do I Still Have a Claim If My Health Insurance Paid for My Medical Bills?
      Yes, you may still file a personal injury claim even if your health insurance provider paid for your medical bills. You are entitled to the full value of your medical treatment. Meaning, the actual cost of treatment, not just the co-pay and deductible. Insurance carriers will attempt to reduce your damages by offering to pay out of pocket expenses. Do not allow your insurance company to treat you unfairly. Let us help you ensure you recover fair and just compensation.
    • Do I Need an Injury Attorney for My Case?
      In most cases involving serious personal injuries, medical negligence, wrongful death, or other complications, it is highly encouraged that you work with an attorney. Legal representation can not only guide you in the right direction but help you obtain compensation for the wrongs that you have endured. Additionally, lawyers will fight for your rights as a victim and never leave you facing large corporations and insurance companies alone.
