Kristen practices in federal courts in Louisiana, Mississippi, and New York and in state courts in Louisiana.

Kristen is versatile. She represents businesses of all sizes in all forms of business disputes. She represents bankruptcy trustees, plan administrators, and receivers in complex litigation and investors in securities fraud lawsuits. She is a dogged advocate but one with a reputation for problem-solving and a knack for finding the shortest way home.

Kristen has a special commitment to Louisiana's economic development, its culture, and, in particular, its underserved communities. As a member of the Eastern District of Louisiana's civil pro bono panel, she regularly volunteers her professional time to the representation of plaintiffs in civil rights cases.
