Mrs. Allee Parker

Catherine is an outstanding attorney! She's brilliant, concise in her statements and demands respect for her clients. I've actually seen a lawyer from a "BIG" law firm in New Orleans lose his cool and have to leave the room because she caught him trying trick her clients(my husband and I) in a very d...eceiving manner. I wouldn't use any other lawyer in the world and I am forever grateful to her!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
