Straight Forward and Results Driven

Observing the CJC in New Orleans, Louisiana, differs significantly from the CJC in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The job that (Private Attorney) Julie Tizzard and (Public Defender) "Cat" Catherine Kearney provide is above ALL. Each attorney offers individual authentic value to their clinics, but each a...pplies a different person-centered approach. Julie Tizzard has over 25 years of experience as an attorney as a NOLA's assistant district attorney and is now a private attorney. In retrospect, Julie is a great attorney because she is honest, gets results, and understands systematic criminal justice PTSD. Special thanks to PD Cat and Julie!

Great Attorney. Highly Recommended!

She is very good attorney who handled a very complicated legal matter for me. I would highly recommend her. More affordable than the big firms to boot.

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.
