Top Lawyers

 

Most people hope not to need them, but when they do, they want the good ones on their side. To help with that we present our annual list of Top Lawyers. The list was prepared by Detroit-based Professional Research Services.

PRS provided this explanation of its methodology:

The voting was open to all licensed attorneys in New Orleans. They were asked which attorney, other than themselves, they would recommend in the New Orleans area. Each attorney was allowed to recommend up to three colleagues in each given legal specialty. Once the online nominations were complete, each nominee was carefully evaluated on the basis of the survey results, the legitimacy of their license and their current standing with the State Bar Association of Louisiana. Attorneys who received the highest number of votes in each specialty are reflected in the following list.

As always when making professional services choices, second opinions are encouraged. In the end, you’re the judge.

Nadège Assalé

Bradley Murchison Kelly & Shea

MY TOUGHEST CASE: Making A New Life

Top Lawyers

 

The twin prospects of earning a decent living and acquiring skills that can “really make a difference in someone’s life” appealed to attorney Nadège Assalé, a native of Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire in West Africa.

She emigrated to the United States at age 18 to attend the University of Oklahoma, where she studied energy management and finance. Then she began working for Shell, supporting her family in her hometown while also attending night classes at Loyola University New Orleans College of Law.

She initially worked in business as a contracts and joint ventures representative for some of Shell’s offshore assets, before moving into more of a commercial advisor role in divestment projects. Now she primarily works in oil, gas and energy transactions and regulations for Bradley Murchison Kelly & Shea, a private practice.

While working in the field of law undoubtedly presents unique challenges, Assalé said her toughest, ongoing case was leaving her home country, alone, as a teenager to make a life here to learn new customs and a new language. She only spoke French when she arrived, but says that through a good dose of humility, resolve, curiosity and optimism — along with discipline and “a heap of good luck” she was able to learn — and is still learning — to speak English. She says her strongest mentors along the way have been her father, her school director and professors, former bosses and lots of friends.

She said the African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child” is apropos for her life and career in New Orleans. “Therein lies my responsibility to pay it forward,” she said. “Luckily the legal field is one that is replete with opportunities to do just that through the clients we help, our involvement in the community through pro bono work and the families we support.” – Sarah Ravits

Dane S. Ciolino

A. R. Christovich Distinguished Professor of Law at Loyola University New Orleans College of Law

MY TOUGHEST CASE: Arguing the Defense in Death Penalty Trials

Top Lawyers

 

It’s one thing to fight over money; another to fight over life or death. Dane S. Ciolino has done both – and much more. After working on Wall Street for a major firm at the beginning of his career, he returned to his hometown of New Orleans and began teaching at Loyola University New Orleans College of Law 25 years ago as the A. R. Christovich Distinguished Professor of Law. He teaches aspiring attorneys professional responsibility, evidence, advocacy and criminal law.

“I always wanted to be a university professor, and as it turned out, law is what I’m suited to teach,” he said.

Ciolino has practiced in many areas, ranging from intellectual property to criminal law. He has also handled disciplinary matters before the Louisiana Supreme Court, the Louisiana Attorney Disciplinary Board and the Louisiana Judiciary Commission. For the past decade, Ciolino has remained focused on teaching and representing lawyers and and judges in various disciplinary, civil and criminal matters. “Basically I’m a lawyer’s lawyer,” he said.

When reflecting upon the toughest cases of his career, Ciolino referred to three federal death penalty matters that he handled as a defense attorney. Challenges included grappling with emotions, including “the deep sympathy for the victims of murder and the even deeper antipathy toward their killers,” he said.

It taught him that these cases “have little to do with law and almost everything to do with emotion.”

The result of his fortitude as a lawyer? “No one has died on my watch.”– Sarah Ravits

MY TOUGHEST CASE: A Lifetime of Patent Scrutiny

 

Top Lawyers

Paula Estrada de Martin is a life sciences and biotechnology patent attorney. The California native worked in New York for 10 years after obtaining her PhD from Yale University; then she relocated to New Orleans.

Originally, she planned on attending medical school before deciding to pursue research and academia instead. From there, she pivoted to legal studies.

As a life sciences patent law attorney, she helps obtain patents, which can present challenges, as there is intense scrutiny from patent examiners. Estrada de Martin’s focus is on both domestic and foreign patent prosecution for life science, biotechnology and plant fields, patent interferences, portfolio management, patentability assessment, non-infringement and invalidity opinions, and litigation to support life sciences and plant matters, among others.

Estrada de Martin also advises public and private entities across the life sciences and biotechnology fields. On the fun side she is active in Carnival, participating in the Muff-A-Lottas dance troupe and the Krewe of Nyx.  – Sarah Ravits
