Ouachita Parish

Home to over 155,000 residents, Ouachita Parish is located in the north-central region of Louisiana and its parish seat is located in the city of Monroe. The parish was founded in 1807 and is named after the Ouachita Native American Indians. The parish shares its name with the Ouachita River, which flows through the parish and was first explored by Hernando De Soto in 1542. The original Ouachita Parish was much larger but was ultimately divided to form many of its present-day neighboring parishes, including the parishes of Morehouse, Caldwell, Union, Franklin, and Madison, among others. Ouachita Parish contains the Black Bayou Lake National Wildlife Refuge and part of the D’Arbonne National Wildlife Refuge.

Car accidents can occur at any location and at any time, and the causes of these accidents can range from distracted drivers to inexcusable drunk drivers. Nearly 69,000 people were injured in car crashes in Louisiana in 2013, which equates to roughly 189 people injured every day. Additionally, another 668 people were killed as a result of vehicular collisions in that same year. If you or a loved one was injured in a motor vehicle accident, you should immediately consult a skilled personal injury attorney who can help protect your rights.
