Louisiana HB281 requires motor vehicle insurers to disclose liability policy information to third-party claimants upon written request.

Louisiana HB281 mandates that automobile insurers must provide liability policy information to third-party claimants or their attorneys within 30 days of a written request. The required information includes the insurer's name, the names of each insured, coverage limits, and a statement if no policy was issued. The request must specify the nature of the claim and include a copy of the accident report. The insurer can ask for additional information if the request is insufficient. The information provided is confidential and not admissible as evidence.
