Scrutiny of public and private companies is at an all-time high. With a watchful eye on both corporate responsibility and individual liability, our corporate and financial services team assist clients in all state, federal and regulatory transactional and compliance matters.

As banking and finance have grown more convenient for the customer, the industry's operations and regulatory requirements have become even more testing. We've kept up with the changes, and our team has experience in all areas of Banking and Finance Law, including representing both lenders and borrowers and serving as counsel to small banks in rural Louisiana and also to major regional banks and their holding companies.
