A Message from the
Chapter President
The
New Orleans Chapter of the
Federal Bar covers the Eastern
District of Louisiana. It
is comprised of the following
parishes in Louisiana: Jefferson,
Lafourche, Plaquemines,
Orleans, St. Bernard, St.
Charles, St. John the Baptist,
St. Tammany, Tangipahoa,
Terrebonne, and Washington.
The chapter was chartered
in 1937 and has grown to
be the largest chapter in
the Fifth Circuit. There
are nearly 1,100 members
from private practice, government
agencies, military branches,
local law schools and local
courts in the New Orleans
chapter. The chapter is
committed to serving the
needs of the federal practitioner
employed or residing in
New Orleans. Below you will
find a listing of the chapter
officers and chapter news.
If you have not already
done so, I invite you to
join the Federal Bar Association
and the New Orleans Chapter.
I look forward to seeing
you at our events.
