Loyd and Erica recently spent time with students at J.B. Martin Middle School in Paradis and Albert Cammon Middle School in St. Rose for their Career Days, discussing what it is really like to work in the legal field and why helping people matters. Loyd enjoyed

answering thoughtful questions, sharing his own path to becoming a lawyer, and encouraging students to explore careers that align with their interests and values. Connecting with local schools is one of our favorite ways to give back to the community we call home.

WELCOME BABY LOGAN

At the start of 2026, Emma, our Claim Evaluator, welcomed her first child, a sweet baby boy named Logan. We are so excited for her and her growing family, and we are thrilled to welcome Logan into the world and recently to the office! We cannot wait to watch him grow and send lots of love from the entire LJBLegal family his way. We’re grateful to share in these meaningful milestones with our team and look forward to all the happy moments ahead for Emma and her family.

THE LJB LEGAL DIFFERENCE • We listen with empathy, and WE CALL PEOPLE BACK! • We are working-class LSU fans. We never thought we’d have to sue people either, but no one should have to fight insurance companies and government bureaucracy alone. • No charges unless we win. Nothing. ZERO. Until you win.
