MBLB associates Noah Borer, Arthur Chassaignac, Katie Fox, Justin Jenkins, Shelby Knight, and Christopher Seemann attended the Louisiana Associate of Defense Counsel’s annual Young Lawyers’ Boot Camp at the Loews New Orleans Hotel on August 7 and 8.

The intensive two-day “learn-by-doing” boot camp provided an opportunity for the attorneys to receive hands-on training in trial tactics from some of Louisiana’s best lawyers, judges, and professors. Among the advocacy skills the boot camp addressed were the direct and cross-examination of fact and expert witnesses, and how to make powerful and persuasive arguments at trial and pretrial proceedings.

Noah, Arthur, Justin, and Christopher are members of LADC, an organization of over 1,100 Louisiana lawyers who are primarily engaged in the defense of civil litigation.
