A formidable advocate in complex business litigation

When our company faced a high-stakes state tax dispute, Justin Lemaire’s deep experience was invaluable. His background in both commercial and tax litigation, recognized by industry peers, gave us immediate confidence. He navigated the complexities with a clear strategy, explaining each step without jargon. After 23 years practicing in Louisiana, his understanding of local courts was a distinct advantage. The positive resolution he secured protected our operations entirely. Justin is the precise blend of sharp legal mind and trusted advisor.
