Top best C Lawyers in ZIP 70813 | 3 available

Since receiving my law license in 2009, I have practiced criminal defense with the East Baton Rouge Parish Office of Public Defender as a misdemeanor and felony Assistant Public Defender. Throughout the course of my practice, have handled a multitude of criminal cases, including Second Degree Murder, Aggravated and Forcible Rape, Distribution Charges, and many more. Prior to working as an attorney with the Public Defender's Office, I had the opportunity to work with Hillar Moore, III as a legal assistant and with the law firm Moore, Walter, Thomas, Thompson, Papillion, and Cullens, LLC as a receptionist/"gopher". My experience with both helped me succeed in law school and prepared me for the actual practice of law. I received my law degree at Southern University Law Center in 2009 where I attended school while working full time. I received my Bachelors from Louisiana State University where I double majored in English Literature and Women's and Gender Studies. I attended high school at Lakeside High School in Lake Village, Arkansas.  Currently, I am now the Clinical Professor for Southern University Law Center's Criminal Clinic where I am able to use my experience from the Public Defender's Office to help third year law students trasition from the role of student to the hopeful role as a practicing attorney in the field of criminal defense.  Through the Criminal Clinic, I am able to provide representation to those indigent defendants that the Office of Public Defender is otherwise unable to represent.
