Practice Areas

Evans & Clesi is primarily a litigation firm. Although most of our trial experience is in the area of casualty and insurance defense, we have handled cases in a wide variety of areas. Additionally, we represent plaintiffs primarily in the areas of employment and employment discrimination. Because of our close relationships with our defense clients, we do not accept plaintiff cases in those areas of concern for our defense clients. We also handle general civil and corporate litigation and non-litigation work.

We handle cases in the following areas:

* Casualty and Insurance Defense, including:
       - Automobile & Trucking
       - Products Liability
       - Premises Liability
       - Insurance Coverage
       - Bad Faith Defense
       - Fraud      
* Business Interruption Insurance Issues     
* Property Damage Insurance Issues
* Workers Compensation
* Employment and Employment Discrimination
* Medical Malpractice
* Legal Malpractice
* General Civil
* General Corporate

Geographically, Evans & Clesi handles cases throughout southeast Louisiana, with most of our work in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, and the state courts in Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. Tammany and Plaquemines Parishes.
