Serving Families in the Baton Rouge Area and South Louisiana Since 1969
We are a full-service law firm. For more than thirty-five years, our attorneys have handled complex cases in a variety of legal areas.
Personal Injury — We have a clear understanding of the causes and the impact of serious accidents. We often work directly with accident scene reconstructionists to prove fault in complicated cases involving:
- Car accidents including rear-end collisions and DWI/DUI Accidents
- Truck accidents and 18-wheeler accidents
- Motorcycle and boating accidents
- Medical malpractice
- Dangerous or defective products
- Premises liability
- On-the-job injuries
We have extensive experience negotiating with insurance companies. We are prepared to seek full, just compensation so accident victims can recover from serious injuries such as Brain injuries and spinal trauma.
Our attorneys also provide compassionate, effective representation to families who have lost loved ones in wrongful death.
Family Law — Our lawyers protect clients who are getting divorced. We cut through emotional barriers to safeguard our clients’ assets and protect their rights as marital property division, child custody, visitation and child support are determined.
Other Areas of Practice:
- Wills, Successions & Contracts
- Contracts
- Successions
- Insurance disputes
We have been serving the Baton Rouge area and South Louisiana for nearly forty years. Many of the issues we deal with involve more than individuals — they are family issues. We are committed to meeting the needs of those we represent and the families who support them.
