Several of our members are listed in The Best Lawyers in America, and the Louisiana Super Lawyers, both annual peer review listings of outstanding lawyers.
The firm's motto is "Continuing a Tradition of Excellence". This statement refers to what characteristics set the firm apart from most law firms located in Southwest Louisiana, which include three things: (1) Our commitment to remaining a general, full-service law firm, with the experience to assist our clients with most any kinds of legal issues they may encounter, while acknowledging the occasional need for referral of certain matters to a specialist; (2) The long term stability of the firm, based on solid internal relationships combined with long term client relationships; and (3) The extent to which we value and retain the services of our senior attorneys, who continue to practice with the firm for an average of 40-50 years or more, allows our firm to provide sage advice to clients based on a remarkable level of actual experience. Although retired from the partnership and no longer practicing with the Firm, Counsel Emeritus continue to provide valuable advice and experience to our Attorneys to better serve our clients.
As the largest and one of the oldest firms based in Southwest Louisiana, the firm now includes 26 attorneys and more than 40 staff members, all of whom take pride in providing the best possible client service.
