About Sarah
Biography
My legal career began long before I went to law school. As a daughter of a prominent New Orleans litigator, I have been around the law my whole life. I have worked for a law firm in one capacity or another since I was an intern in high school. After getting my bachelors at LSU, I went from a legal assistant and paralegal to an associate attorney in October, 2014. I began attending and assisting at trials in my teens, coming to understand the degree of preparation and attention to detail that marks me as a lawyer today.
In 2018, I expanded her practice to include Divorce and Family Law as well as simple Estate Planning. For my outstanding work in the Medical Malpractice arena, I have been recognized by the American Institute of Legal Advocates as a Rising Star in personal injury. I am a fierce and loyal advocate for my clients. My true passion lies in helping those who need it the most.
In 2019, I opened my own practice with my father and mentor. Its the honor of my career thus far.

Definitely recommend!
I interviewed many attorneys for my specific situation. I felt like with most of them I was going to be just a number or they didn’t really care about what happened to me. When I met with Sarah I instantly felt like she was passionate about getting justice for me. She was the only person I had met wi...
