Personal Injury Overview

New Orleans, Louisiana, Personal Injury Claims Lawyer

At Howard & Reed, we believe that people deserve to be treated fairly after becoming the victim of somebody else's negligence or misconduct. Known throughout the region for his courtroom tenacity that earned him the name "Mad Dog," attorney D. Douglas Howard, Jr. founded the law firm of Howard & Reed in 1970, on the principle that good people deserve vigorous and effective representation from their lawyer. After more than 35 years, our attorneys still take the extra measures to make sure that injury victims of negligence and misconduct have confidence in their case.

When you come to Howard & Reed for a free consultation to discuss your personal injury case, we will give you an honest evaluation of your prospects for reaching a fair settlement or convincing a jury to decide in your favor. After suffering a serious injury, losing a loved one in a fatal accident or wrongful death, you do not need to be sold a bill-of-goods. You need facts. You need honest and experienced representation. You need to know that your lawyer is on your side from the initial consultation until the final disposition of your case.
