State Bar of Georgia. Ladson, Odom & Des Roches was founded in 1996 by trial lawyers with many years' experience as partners in major regional law firms. The niche filled by this small firm appears to be unique in the Southeastern legal community.
The firm specializes in multi-party litigation of complex civil matters involving a wide range of subject areas, and engages in a level of trial practice throughout the Southeastern United States usually reserved for much larger firms. The firm has a broad-based civil litigation practice, and its clients include local businesses, national and international companies, and private individuals. The firm's lawyers have particular depth of experience in financial transactions litigation, professional liability litigation, RICO litigation, business tort litigation, securities litigation and healthcare litigation, as well as personal injury and maritime matters.
The firm regularly represents a "Big Six" accounting firm, and routinely litigates against the largest national and international law firms. A substantial portion of the firm's practice is devoted to consulting, at the request of other law firms, in specialized litigation matters.
