About Scott
Biography
I am a dedicated attorney who strives to achieve the maximum possible recovery for all of my personal injury clients. Having previously worked as an insurance defense lawyer, I know the ins and outs of the insurance companies and that allows me to tell a client the strengths and weaknesses of their case and what actions need to be taken in order to maximize the value of their case. I also practice family law and general litigation. Having been born and raised in New Orleans, I am able to provide my client's a unique prospective that allows and almost always achieves the best possible result for my clients. Each client that I work with receives personal detailed attention to their case and I pride myself on being efficient and reliable. When a client gets into an accident, he or she experiences a series of emotions. During that difficult time period, I am there for my clients to help and try to make them feel at ease as well as to achieve excellent results on his/her behalf.
If you are lookinng for an attorney who is experienced and has a proven record of success as well as an attorney who truly cares about their clients, please contact me as I am confident that I will be the right attorney for you.
