New Orleans

Since our origin in New Orleans in 1853, Phelps Dunbar has developed into a regional legal practice offering services and locations across the Third Coast. Our founding city continues to offer home to Phelps’ largest office, with nearly one hundred attorneys. As a cornerstone for our firm, the New Orleans office is a full service practice that represents a diverse range of clients from international corporations to small businesses and individuals. Attorneys in the New Orleans office represent a wide range of practice areas within our core groups of admiralty, business, litigation, labor and employment, and insurance and reinsurance, which allows us to better understand and meet the needs of our clients.

Besides handling matters in the industries that are thriving in the Third Coast, our attorneys in New Orleans are well-versed in domestic and international issues. We are prepared to not only provide counsel for clients but to represent at the trial and appellate levels in both state and federal courts. Situated between the flourishing Central Business District and the historic French Quarter, the New Orleans office is dedicated to providing quality legal solutions and maintains an active role in building and strengthening the New Orleans community.
