Biography

I have over 13 years of experience in both state and federal court, litigating matters involving insurance claims, property damage, collections, environmental and toxic exposure, maritime, trucking, construction, automobile accidents, and slip-and-fall cases. Additionally, I have prepared and filed successions (commonly referred to as "probate"). I am an active member of several organizations, including the Jefferson Parish Bar Association, the New Orleans Claims Association, and the Westbank Business and Industry Association. Outside of my legal work, I live in Metairie with my wife and son. I also serve as Treasurer for the Autism Society of Greater New Orleans, a non-profit organization devoted to serving the needs of individuals and families in the area affected by autism.
