Baton Rouge Insurance Defense Law Firm
Overview
Taylor, Wellons, Politz & Duhe, APLC was established in 1995. The first three named partners worked together as directors of a large, New Orleans based regional defense firm. Charles J. "Chip" Duhe and B. Scott Cowart joined the firm in 2000 after having practiced at one of the region's largest law firms. We decided to form our own firm because we shared the same vision for providing clients with the highest level of service. We felt that our legal expertise, experience and talents complemented one another, and we wanted to work together to build a law firm and establish a strong team that knows how to collaborate as colleagues to achieve our client's goals. We view our clients as our partners and represent their business interests as aggressively, and with as much concern, as we would our own. We understand that our interests are inextricably linked with our clients. Our clients include major self-insured corporations, leading domestic insurance companies and local businesses, whom we represent in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and throughout the Gulf Coast region.About Taylor, Wellons, Politz & Duhe, APLC

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
