New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
I am a New Orleans-based maritime attorney and educator with expertise in maritime indemnity, marine insurance, and risk management in the inland towing and energy-service markets. I help clients who own, operate, charter, employ, or insure vessels to understand and manage their risks in transportation, offshore oilfield, and alternative-energy projects in the U.S. and around the world. My work covers a wind range of projects in all phases, from exploration-and-development (E&P) or renewable energy (like wind farms and solar panel installations) to plug-and-abandonment (P&A) and decommissioning, and all kinds of services, including tugs and towage, supply vessels, and land-based or amphibious equipment. I have delivered papers or lectures in the US, UK, Norway, Singapore, and India. I am also a published author and an adjunct Professor of Law at Tulane University Law School, where I teach a class on Towage & Offshore Services during the spring semester.
