Attorney Information
Overview
Reagan Reynolds Wilty rejoined Smith & Fawer, LLC in 2022 after beginning the first seven years of her law career with the firm in 2013 immediately after graduating magna cum laude from Tulane University Law School.
Reagan’s legal successes check many boxes, and while her practice is primarily focused on eminent domain, complex commercial litigation, partnership dispute litigation, community property litigation, and general civil litigation, she also possesses impressive experience in zoning disputes, civil rights litigation, succession litigation, criminal law, corporate transactions and formations, insurance coverage and defense litigation, plaintiff personal injury, labor and employment litigation, and securities litigation and arbitration.
A talented associate, Reagan litigates in federal and state courts, AAA, private arbitration and FINRA arbitration. She also has broad appellate experience.
Originally from Coleman, Texas, a small rural town in west Texas where she still has strong family ties, she currently resides in Algiers Point with her husband and their two girls. In her spare time, Reagan enjoys a truly New Orleans medium, creating papier mâché art.

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.
