Attorney Information
Overview
Meghan Nolen is a personal injury trial attorney at Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers in Shreveport, Louisiana, representing injured plaintiffs in catastrophic motor vehicle, wrongful death, and serious injury cases across Louisiana. She has helped secure tens of millions of dollars for her clients, including serving on the trial team behind a $49 million jury verdict, and has been named a Louisiana Super Lawyers Rising Star three years running (2024–2026).
Catastrophic motor vehicle accidents and wrongful death form the core of Ms. Nolen’s practice. Her cases include commercial-vehicle collisions, traumatic brain and spinal injuries, fatal crashes, OSHA violations, and premises liability. These cases frequently turn on how thoroughly the damages are built and presented — medical proof, life-care needs, and economic loss — where her finance background gives her a distinct advantage.
Ms. Nolen earned a Bachelor of Science in Finance from L.S.U. before completing her Juris Doctor at Louisiana State University Paul M. Hebert Law Center. Before joining Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers, she clerked for Judges Marcotte and O’Callaghan at the First Judicial District Court, where she saw firsthand how judges weigh evidence and rule on motions. She has completed training in trial advocacy and civil mediation. Her finance background gives her a real edge in valuing and presenting the complex damages at the heart of catastrophic-injury and wrongful-death cases.
Ms. Nolen was selected to the Louisiana Super Lawyers Rising Stars list in 2024, 2025, and 2026 — a recognition limited to no more than 2.5 percent of attorneys under 40 or in practice ten years or less. TopVerdict named her among the Top 100 Motor Vehicle Accident Settlements in the United States for 2024. She is a member of the Louisiana Association for Justice and the Louisiana State Bar Association.
