Experienced Local Counsel in Louisiana
Experienced Local Counsel in Louisiana
Navigating asbestos and other toxic tort cases in Louisiana can be particularly challenging due to the state's unique legal framework, which follows the Civil Napoleonic Code. This introduces many specialized terms and legal distinctions that may be unfamiliar to out-of-state attorneys. The complexity is further heightened by the Louisiana Supreme Court's requirement that asbestos cases apply the laws in effect at the time of exposure.
Given these challenges, it is highly recommended for out-of-state firms to retain local co-counsel when filing mesothelioma cases in Louisiana.
At The Cheek Law Firm, LLC, we provide local counsel assistance to out-of-state firms as well as in-state firms that lack specific experience in asbestos-related litigation. Our deep institutional knowledge of Louisiana asbestos cases is unparalleled. We have formed strong connections within the local community, including with manufacturers, suppliers, contractors, and medical professionals, all essential for successfully winning mesothelioma cases and securing necessary medical attention for clients.
