Louisiana Personal Injury and Civil Rights Trial Lawyer
At our New Orleans-area personal injury law firm, we are prepared to take high-risk cases and break new ground. In fact, some of our greatest victories have grown out of the most challenging circumstances. They have required not just arguing the law, but changing it, not just representing clients, but partnering with them to navigate the legal system together. Our mission is not just to win money for our clients, but to make our community a safer place for all of us through the jury system.
Attorney Glenn C. McGovern has built a thriving civil law practice over the past three decades, focusing on personal injury, civil rights, police brutality, car accidents, toxic torts, employment law and products liability litigation, whistleblower claims, qui tam, False Claims Acts and motorcycle accidents.

Attorney Glenn McGovern seeks to touch jurors’ consciences through illustrating his clients’ personal stories, and how their lives and families have been affected from a variety of cases involving:
- Motor vehicle accidents — Our New Orleans-area law firm has handled a large number of car accident and truck accident cases, many of which have involved wrongful death, burns, severe lacerations and serious spinal cord injuries.
