Informed Guidance for Investors and Businesses
The Willeford Law Firm was founded in New Orleans, Louisiana, by attorney James F. Willeford, whose nearly 40 years of legal experience extends to trying cases before the Supreme Court of Louisiana and the United States Supreme Court.
We are a small law firm by design. Mr. Willeford assembled a skilled team of attorneys who focus on providing exceptional client service to investors and retirees facing serious financial consequences from securities fraud, broker misconduct and other deceptive practices. We have recovered millions of dollars in losses through securities arbitration for clients throughout the United States and around the world.
Additionally, our lawyers possess sophisticated commercial law experience. We will evaluate your business issue to determine the best course of action. We strive to obtain the best possible outcome for our clients through negotiation or litigation.
We also represent individuals who have been wrongfully denied disability claims under a short-term or long-term disability plan covered by ERISA. Our experienced ERISA attorneys will protect your rights and interests at every stage of the disability claims process.
Our attorneys leverage their individual strengths to ensure our clients receive the highest level of personal attention and service. We strive to eliminate our clients' stress while helping them navigate the legal system.
