about us
This is really MY story, MY words, written by ME–not a hired marketing guy.
I came to New Orleans to study at Tulane and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in English. After military service, I returned to my alma mater to study law.
I earned my Juris Doctor in 2004 and passed the Louisiana bar shortly thereafter in ’05, when Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans.
I started out my law career as a real estate developer, not as a traditional lawyer. This experience has made all the difference.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Those who cause accidents through their own fault must be held accountable to compensate those they injure.
I’ve been in an Accident. Do I need an Attorney?
If you’ve been the victim in a personal injury incident, the opposing party will likely look for every opportunity to minimize the amount they owe you. As the victim, you should focus on your medical healing, but also consider hiring a dedicated attorney who can ensure you’re financially compensated properly. They’ll help you avoid common errors that could devalue your claim. Notably, insurance companies might exploit any opportunity, such as your social media posts or missed medical appointments, to argue that you’re not as injured as you claim or that you’re only looking for monetary compensation. An attorney will guide you through these potential pitfalls, protect your legal rights after the accident, and advise you on steps like documenting your injuries and avoiding premature settlement offers.

What kind of damages may I be entitled to?
If you’ve been hurt in an accident due to another person’s negligence, Louisiana law might entitle you to compensation. If the person responsible was performing their regular job duties during the incident, their employer might be liable for your losses, which can often ease the compensation recovery process. The specific damages you could claim depend on your accident’s circumstances. Some commonly recovered losses in Louisiana personal injury cases include:
– Past and future medical expenses: This covers hospitalization, physical therapy, ongoing treatments, and other medical-related costs.
– Costs related to medical treatment travel.
– Lost income from missed work, both past and future.
– Reduced earning capacity if you can’t return to your previous job.
– Costs for vocational training if you need to switch careers.
– Physical and emotional pain and suffering.
When consulting with an attorney, they can provide a clearer picture of potential compensable losses and the amount you could expect to recover.
