I am a trial partner in the Baton Rouge office of Kean Miller. I joined the firm in 1985 and practice in the construction, commercial litigation, and arbitration groups. I have been selected by my peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America in the fields of Construction Law and Construction Litigation (2010-2016). For over 25 years I have represented construction clients in a wide variety of construction disputes including litigation, contract negotiation and interpretation, arbitration and mediation, lien rights and remedies under the Public Works Act and the Private Works Act, performance, payment, bid and retainage bond rights, and liability and responsibility issues.My knowledge of the construction process began long before law school. I worked in the construction industry during high school and college. This "from the ground up" understanding of the nuances of the construction industry enables me to proactively work with clients and their workforce to recognize and prevent problems before they occur.My clients include project owners, engineers, contractors, industrial concerns, building owners, architects and engineers.

Listed skills include Litigation, Class Actions, Commercial Litigation, Construction Law, and 5 others.
