Seale & Ross PLC in Hammond

Opis

Seale & Ross serves as litigation counsel for national corporations, local and state governmental bodies, and for businesses, professionals and individuals on the North Shore. Our practice includes state and federal courts and administrative agencies. We also serve as general counsel for companies with multi-state business activities, managing litigation in other jurisdictions through selection and supervision of local counsel. Our firm has litigators who are licensed to practice in Louisiana’s state and federal courts, and in Texas and Mississippi and other jurisdictions as well.

Effective advocacy requires more than just courtroom skill, although such skill is indisputably necessary. Every good law firm knows how to try a lawsuit; the best ones know how to avoid litigation, or if it is unavoidable, how to manage it to a successful conclusion, minimizing the overall cost to the client.

Business Advice

We take seriously the role of "counselor" to our business clients. Our business clients include small and medium sized construction companies, mercantile, manufacturing, and service companies, and practitioners in law, medicine, architecture and engineering. Special attention is given to the problems of "Mom & Pop" business owners who often face difficult legal and business problems without the staff and support that larger companies enjoy.

We assist our clients in matters of banking, financial management, personnel law, risk assessment, and in the general areas of contract preparation and review, mergers and acquisitions and ownership transfers within family businesses.

Personal Planning

Individuals and business entities face decisions from time-to-time which require the application of technical legal knowledge combined with judgment and experience. In no area is this more important than in preparing wills and trusts to manage our clients' affairs, protect their heirs, minimize their estate tax burdens, and provide continuity to their family businesses.
