Our law firm is one of Louisiana's best known personal injury law firms handling cases for almost fifty years involving offshore accidents, auto accidents, wrongful death, complex litigation, class actions, and trials. Occupying four floors of the Jefferson Towers building in the heart of the Lafayette, Louisiana business district, we represent injured persons in state and federal courts throughout Louisiana. The firm has earned the highest possible peer-reviewed rating for professional excellence and integrity from the Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory. This rating is also held by the two senior attorneys, Bob F. Wright and James P. Roy, who are both past presidents of the Louisiana Trial Lawyers Association and are listed in the peer selected "Best Lawyers in America" in the areas of maritime law and personal injury litigation. The "Best Lawyers in America" book has been described as "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice." Bob and Jim have also been inducted as fellows in the International Academy of Trial Lawyers (limited to a maximum of 500 plaintiff and defense lawyers in North America under the age of 70). In addition, the firm is recognized by Martindale-Hubbell in its Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers.
