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 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 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 twenty-six years of experience in diversified areas of legal practice ranging from criminal prosecution to civil litigation.

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 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..
