Top best E Lawyers in NEW ORLEANS | 3582 available

I  graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor's of Science in Business Management with a concentration in Entrepreneurship from Louisiana State University. While attending LSU, I received an Academic Excellence Award in Entrepreneurship and was honored into the Rucks Fellowship by the E.J. Ourso Business College. Upon graduation, I attended and received my Juris Doctor from Loyola University New Orleans, School of Law.. I am licensed to practice law in the State of Louisiana. In 2014, I established John Love Norris, IV LLC, a law firm helping those in need of civil and criminal litigation. I am highly-involved in the community, providing legal services for Loyola's Homeless Outreach Program.  I also provide free notary services at Rosa F. Keller Library in New Orleans Louisiana.. I am an Application Developer having took part in the creation of the Multiple Bill Calculator, an application that provides sentencing calculations for those who are multiple offenders, and GoodTime Calculator, an application that determines the diminution of a sentence according to Louisiana's law.. For my work I have been recognized for my creations on several websites and have been published in Louisiana State Bar Journal February/March 2014 edition for my article "Creating Apps for the Legal Gap".

I worked in a large New Orleans firm for 18 years handling complex commercial litigation cases (think: LOTS of paper). Eventually, soaring overhead, crazy billable hours, and mindless bureaucracy left me completely burned out.. But then I discovered how to become paperless, which enabled me to automate key workflows (instead of begging people to do the work and then stay on top of them to make sure they did it right). My low-cost website attracted a steady flow of clients, which made my solo practice financially successful as well.. Now, I help other lawyers who want to modernize their practices to work less yet earn more (plus spend more time away from the office relaxing!). I give them a strategic blueprint for leveraging technology that explains everything in bite-sized chunks. And I provide ongoing guidance so that they can keep streamlining their practices week-by-week.

I was raised in Lafayette, Louisiana, and am a proud graduate of Lafayette High School. After earning my undergraduate degree from Tulane University in 2013, I spent two years serving in the Phoenix Corps of Teach for America. I returned to my hometown in 2015 and spent a year working as a legal assistant to Attorneys Marc W. Judice and Daniel C. Palmintier at Judice & Adley law firm. These early lessons on best practices in a legal career were formative for me, and I carry them with me to this day.. After enrolling at LSU Law in 2016, I was chosen to serve as a legal intern for Louisiana Sea Grant – a division of the federal environmental program governed by NOAA. This work involved researching legal issues surrounding the preservation and restoration of Louisiana’s coast, as well as educating the public on environmental issues facing Louisiana’s wetlands and coastal communities. During my 2L year, I served as a student attorney for LSU’s Immigration Law Clinic. Handling everything from drafting naturalization forms to providing legal advice to Green Card applicants at informational clinics, this semester-long placement culminated with an asylum candidate I represented being granted asylum status.. Originally hired as a summer associate while still in law school, I have been with Scott | Vicknair LLC since 2018. Since that time, I have served as the personal law clerk to Partner Brad Scott, passed the Louisiana Bar Exam, and been promoted to a full-time associate attorney working in the firm’s Succession and Estate Planning Division. I am licensed to practice in Louisiana and am a member of the Louisiana Bar Association. I harbor a passion for improving the lives of our citizens, and I am happy to provide an important service to Louisiana families in need through my estate planning and succession work.

I was born here in New Orleans, I attended McDonogh#35, Dillard University, and Southern University Law Center in Baton Rouge. My practice areas are Personal Injury/Automobile Accidents, DUI/DWI, and Traffic Offense, basically anything dealing with you and your vehicle.. My practice is focused on providing comprehensive services for individuals who are involved in Automobile accidents, arrested, charged or issued a summons/ticket for DWI, traffic offenses, drug and alcohol offenses, and other various misdemeanor criminal charges.. If your license is suspended I am able to assist you in resolving any issues with your license, geting your license reinstated and getting you back behind the drivers seat.. Let me guide you through whatever legal issue facing you. I will give you and your matter the attention you deserve.

I was born and raised in New Orleans, and have lived in Algiers since 1976.. I practice primarily in the area of consumer Bankruptcy law.. I handle all aspects of your case personally:  I do not have paralegals or others prepare your Bankruptcy, so I am very familiar with your case and your needs.

I strongly believe in providing quality yet affordable legal services to my clients.  In my 27 years of experience practicing law in federal and state court, I have found that hard work, a solid plan, and effective communication with clients are critically important in achieving excellent results.. My practice is divided into two areas:  Ciminal defense and general civil practice.  On the criminal defense side, I represent individuals in a wide variety of cases in both federal and state court.  Most of the cases I accept are those with charges that are not considered crimes of violence.. My general civil practice focuses on represnting small corporations, limited liability companies, and partnerships with all of their legal needs.  These areas include business formation, contract negotiations, drafting and reviewing contracts, leases, insurance issues, civil litigation of all kinds, including unfair trade practice cases, trademark and copyright matters, and collections.

I started my legal career in 2014 at Acadiana Legal Services Corporation in Lafayette, Louisiana, representing foster children who were placed in Louisiana’s “Child in Need of Care” court program due abusive or neglectful situations at home. I consider it one of the hardest but most rewarding experiences of my life. Every single one of these resilient children impacted me and I consider myself honored to have been able to be a voice for each one of them. This experience also gave me immediate exposure in the courtroom in sixteen juvenile courts across South Louisiana.. Loving the courtroom experience and always wanting to be a litigator, I moved back to New Orleans and on to a clerkship at the 24th Judicial District Court in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, where I spent just over three years serving as law clerk for Judges John J. Molaison, Jr., and Frank A. Brindisi. I gained invaluable experience learning how the best trial attorneys write, argue a case, select a jury panel, and prepare a case for trial.. As a current trial attorney at Scott Vicknair, LLC, I have used those experiences in Court to develop my trial skills. I have learned along the way that giving each case time and attention to detail is crucial to its success, and I work hard to ensure each case I handle gets the time and attention it deserves. I also believe that being personally accessible to my clients is important and will always be available for questions and updates.. In my practice, I primarily represent individuals who have suffered personal injuries due to car and trucking collisions, individuals who have experienced damage to their home or land and cannot resolve the claim with their insurance company, and wrongful death claims. I have also handled employment law and wage disputes and have successfully litigated breach of contract claims and real estate disputes. I truly enjoy engaging with a jury and navigating the judicial system, and I am grateful when clients trust me with the issues that matter most to them.. Initially from Lafayette, I attended college at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette where I graduated magna cum laude in business administration in 2011. I then moved to New Orleans where I earned my juris doctor from the University of Loyola College of Law in 2014. I am admitted to practice law before all state and federal courts in Louisiana. I am a member of the Louisiana State Bar Association, the New Orleans Bar Association, the Jefferson Bar Association, and the St. Thomas Moore Inn of Court.. In my spare time, I enjoy design, oil painting, and diving into research on antiques. I also love being on the water and spending time with my wonderful parents, numerous siblings, and friends.

I started Mitchell & Associates because I wanted to be able to do more for my clients. Up until that point I worked at a prestigious law firm representing big, corporate and insurance industry type clients.  My job was to defend them at all cost, even when they were wrong. I did my job, and I did my job well.. In 1999 I walked out of the Firm with one file, a case where my client was seriously hurt in a car accident, determined to practice law the way I wanted to and for the clients I wanted to.  I was able to sit down behind my desk and take as much time as needed to learn a person’s case inside and out.  I was able to find the details other attorneys would miss.  I was able to make sure I did all I could to make sure my clients got what they were entitled to under the law.  As my practice grew I had the opportunity to spend time handling many different types of cases, each with its own unique set of facts that had to be completely understood.. Years later, after having represented families whose loved ones were mistreated in nursing homes, patients that were hurt when doctors were supposed to heal, and hundreds of people exposed to toxic mold in a run-down office building, my Firm stands ready to represent you and your loved ones.  If you need an attorney to help you with your insurance dispute, case against a nursing home, on the job accident or any injury caused by someone else’s fault, please call me.

I represent my clients in all aspects of the construction industry.  My practice includes contract negotiation, protection of security interests such as Statements of Claim and Privilege and Materialman Liens and assisting clients in avoiding litigation.  When disputes cannot be resolved, I defend claims against design professionals and contractors in both State and Federal Court including issues related to errors and omission against architects and engineers and construction defects against contractors.

I represent clients in serious personal injury, property damage and wrongful death claims arising from aviation, oil and gas activities, products liability and chemical exposures. I defend under professional E&O coverage (legal, insurance broker, accounting). I've handled insurance coverage litigation involving aviation and CGL coverages, as well as business and contractual disputes.. I also have an appellate practice in the above areas of law and have participated in complex litigation.

I provide strategic legal, transactional, and business advice to clients in the areas of business, healthcare, and technology law.  I solve complex regulatory and business challenges and help my clients take advantage of opportunities for growth and transformation in an ever-evolving market.

I practice in Deutsch Kerrigan’s Maritime department resolving marine and energy disputes for my clients.

I love what I do for a living and I think it comes through in my practice. Since finishing my clerkships, I have represented plaintiffs in complex litigation and have never wanted to do anything else. I have litigated antitrust cases, environmental pollution cases, Jones Act cases, pharmaceutical injury cases, consumer class actions, and mass tort cases around the United States. Many of my cases are referred from co-counsel that I have worked with before which I like to think is a reflection of the results our team was able to achieve for the clients. In 2015, I co-founded Burns Charest with two of my classmates from law school and have continued to represent plaintiffs against some of the largest companies in the world.

I learned early on that as a lawyer, I could change people’s lives for the better.A few years ago, I had a client who worked for one company as a tankerman for 20 years. He was ordered into a crawlhole during a storm to check the radar, and as he was getting out, the boat hit a swell. He was thrown backwards and ended up with a spine injury.. He went from being the main provider for his family to borrowing money to get a Coke and sleeping on people’s sofas.. The day of the trial, the company offered us $100,000.. The jury came back with the verdict of $1.6 million in favor of my client. He hugged me and started crying. His family cheered.. I looked over at the defense lawyer and had an epiphany: His clients never hug him. Win or lose, they would have just argued about his bill.. That’s why I never doubt that I’m on the right side of justice.. When I take on a client, I dive head-first into their world.I want to know what it was like to be there during their injury… What it felt like, what it sounded like, what it smelled like. I want to know what was happening through their eyes.. I deep dive into what their life was like before their injury, and what it’s been like since.. As their attorney and advocate, it’s my job to absorb their story and be in touch with my client emotionally—not only so that they know I’m truly on their side, but also to effectively present this story to a jury of their peers.. Telling that story together... that’s how we win.. Maritime is a very distinct area of law, unlike any other.And not every lawyer understands the ins and outs of these types of cases.I do.

I have years of experience representing companies and insurers in personal injury and commercial trucking litigation. Also, I defend insurance professionals, architects, engineers and other design professionals.

I have twenty-six years of experience in diversified areas of legal practice ranging from criminal prosecution to civil litigation. I represent clients in insurance defense, premises liability, property damage and automobile insurance claims and also against claims of medical malpractice.. I have strong litigation experience having litigated in Civil Court, Juvenile Court, Criminal Court, Appellate Court, Federal Court, before the Office of Workers’ Compensation, the Civil Service Commission, and the Division of Administrative Law in the State of Louisiana.

I have tried over 100 jury trials and many more judge trials and am admitted to practice before every state and federal court in both Louisiana and Mississippi.. I represent corporate clients, insurance companies and their insureds in general civil litigation, including products liability (offshore hoists, ladders, gas plants, latex gloves and vehicles), transportation (rail, air and road), toxic tort (benzene, phosgene and asbestos), and premises liability matters.

I have served on the Louisiana Supreme Court Committee on Bar Admissions as an Assistant Examiner, Examiner, Secretary, Director of Character and Fitness and Chairman.. I retired from the United States Army Reserve as Lieutenant Colonel with a specialty in multi-function logistics.

I have over 40 years experience as a civil litigator representing corporations and insurance companies in a wide variety of matters.  My main focus includes civil litigation defense; admiralty and maritime litigation; insurance defense litigation; insurance coverage; product liability litigation; class action and mass tort / disaster litigation.

I have over 30 years experience litigating admiralty and maritime property damage claims, marine insurance indemnity and coverage claims, including insurance broker E&O claims, and oil and gas claims, such as Legacy Oil, on shore blowout, and operating agreement litigation.

I have over 10 years of experience advising emerging and established companies on matters of corporate, business, and securities law.  I undersand well the challenges companies face in when raising capital and have helped raise milliions in financing for small businesses.  I have closed large and small asset sales and M&A deals across diverse industry sectors.  I have advised for-profits and non-profits on matters of governance, risk, and compliance and have structured investment funds, negotiated and drafted operating agreements, and served as an independent reviewer of manager activities..
