Katrina - How to find lawyers who had to leave their offices

By A.J. Levy

Katrina has forced many Louisiana lawyers from their offices. If you’re a lawyer or a client looking for them, there are two sites that may have their new information. But the lawyers must have registered their new addresses and telephone numbers.

The Louisiana State Bar Association has one of the sites. www.lsba.org/home1/ The site also has Katrina-related information for attorneys as well as non-attorneys.

Attorneys can also give their new addresses and phone numbers to the State Bar Disciplinary Committee at http://www.ladb.org. The committee’s site is searchable by the public.

Additionally, clients who are looking for their attorneys may post their own locations and, when their attorneys give a new address, the attorneys will be informed of the clients who have been looking for them.
