Townsend Myers Among Top 3 Criminal Defense Attorneys in New Orleans
Posted on by Townsend MyersTownsend Myers, the founder of NOLA Criminal Law, has been named one of the Top 3 Criminal Defense Lawyers in New Orleans. The selections were made by Three Best Rated®, an organization that selects the top three local businesses, professionals, restaurants, and health-care providers in cities throughout the world.
Myers’ Background
After graduating from University of Chicago Law School in 1993, Myers joined the Cook County Public Defender’s Office in Chicago. Three years later, he returned to New Orleans and soon opened the doors to NOLA Criminal Law because he sensed the need for a criminal defense attorney “who was willing to work a little differently.” In fact, he was aware of clients who said their lawyer had not grasped their problems sufficiently or did not genuinely cared about them. “In criminal law especially,” Myers says, “if your lawyer doesn’t understand your problem, your lawyer can’t help you solve it.”
Three Best Rated® Methods of Selection
To handpick its best three criminal defense attorneys in New Orleans, Three Best Rated used a 50-point system to verify reputation, history, ratings, and complaints. Also checked were areas of trust, satisfaction, cost, and general excellence. Only those criminal defense attorneys verified by Three Best Rated employees appear on the organization’s website, which is updated on a regular basis.
