They handled my case with urgency, and care. From beginning to end everything was broken down to me so I understood and the whole process was a breeze when it came to my personal injury case. I highly recommend this firm. Thanks again!Ashley Castillo2021-06-19I cannot say enough about just how much Attorney Alicia McDowell and her firm helped me and my family get closure in a very long and almost hopeless case. In 1998, I was hit and injured by a drunk driver. Even after receiving a judgement in 2000, the person did everything he could to not pay it. So, we ended up putting a lien on his property. Fast forward to 2019, my original attorney died, my real estate attorney moved on to becoming a judge so we just kept renewing the judgement in the hopes that one day we may get even a small portion of the judgement. My dad found Attorney Alicia McDowell, a young attorney new to LaPlace that was eager to get justice for us. Within less than a year of hiring her, she was able to finally get our original judgement amount plus interest! In the end she even reduced the percent that she would have received. Attorney McDowell and her firm are absolutely amazing and I would definitely recommend anyone to them!! Thank you all so much!!!!!!Willie Mae Davis Thomas2020-04-03Amazing, friendly help in a time of need. They were professional and expedited my case.
