James E. Sudduth, III is the founder and driving force behind Sudduth and Associates. As a Lake Charles native he witnessed the lack of growth and direction present in his beloved city and decided to become the force of change the city needed. James knew that to accomplish this goal he would have to temporarily relocate to Baton Rouge. After law school, James returned home to serve as an Assistant District Attorney in the Calcasieu Parish District Attorney’s office, and during his tenure he was promoted to Misdemeanor Section Chief. When offered a second promotion, to the Felony Division, James declined stating that he was being called to serve the public in a different arena."At the end of the end of the day it isn't about the amount of money you bring home or the prestige attached to your name; rather it is the satisfaction of a job well done and knowing that despite your limited resources you have accomplished the near impossible. It is about making a difference in people's lives and having the desire to serve them when no one else will. This is what it means to be a true servant to the public."

I specialize in Criminal Defense and am driven by a passion for the courtroom and representing the interests of those who are in need of restitution, recovery, or exoneration. I represent those charged with very serious offenses as well as those charged with petty ones and invest the same level of work ethic into every case and client behind it. I've achieved two overturned convictions on behalf of clients seeking appeals, revealing exculpatory evidence suppressed by the State that ultimately proved innocence on behalf of those charged. Altogether, I consider it my life’s purpose to ensure those who are wrongly convicted, underrepresented, or overcharged experience the just defense they rightly deserve.
