About J.

After graduating from law school in 1977, Steve entered solo practice and for eight years handled virtually every type of case imaginable - from murder cases to divorces to wrongful death civil actions. After eight years, Steve ran for and was elected Judge for the Ward 4 Sulphur City Court. At that point in his practice, Steve began limiting his cases to those involving personal injury. During the 18 years that Steve served as Judge, he maintained a heavy caseload of personal injury cases in his private practice by working long hours. In 2002, Steve retired from the Judgeship and now practices full-time handling serious injury and death cases. The knowledge and experience that Steve gained through serving as a judge for 18 years is an invaluable asset to him in representing victims in serious injury and death cases. Steve understands firsthand not only the workings of a court from both the attorney's viewpoint and the judge's viewpoint, but he knows what it takes to impress a judge with the merits of a particular case.

Steve has developed a reputation for taking cases of seriously injured people that other attorneys have declined. Steve has used his creative thinking and ingenuity to recover millions of dollars in cases that other attorneys have rejected. Steve thrives on solving difficult legal issues that many lawyers would rather avoid.

Steve is an avid outdoorsman who loves to hunt and fish. He recognizes the importance of establishing a good relationship with each of his clients and enjoys getting to know them on a personal basis. Many of Steve's clients have remained close personal friends after their case has been completed.

Steve's many years of experience as a judge in the courtroom and as an attorney have taught him the ins and outs of carefully evaluating the merits of a case. Most importantly, Steve has learned through his years of experience how to present a case in the most favorable manner for the desired result from a jury or judge.

Steve and his wife, Kim, enjoy the peaceful surroundings of their country home located on a farm in the southern part of Calcasieu parish; they have four grown children and two grandchildren.
