She, her husband, two daughters and daughter in law are all LSU graduates with her granddaughter scheduled to graduate in May. They share a love of LSU and enjoy tailgating at LSU games together.. After marrying Mark, Barbara began working at the Social Security Administration’s hearing office, which is the adjudicatory branch of the Social Security disability program. For 21 years, she worked there as a supervisor of 16 attorneys and paralegals. She left to go into private practice, and in 2013 she began working as an attorney at Neblett, Beard & Arsenault.. “Since coming to NBA, I have grown this area of practice and have come to know and care for a great many of my clients,” says Barbara.
