Congratulations to Attorney Russell Beall for his invitation to speak at LSU Law seminar today.
From Russell:
VERY HUMBLED to be at a place in my career where my experience, knowledge, and success has risen to point where I am invited to provide insight and opinions on topics that impact the hardworking people of Louisiana.
Today, I shared the stage with some stellar individuals to discuss recent tort reform laws in Louisiana and provide insight as to how these new laws have gone too far, have denied citizens certain legal protections, and to provide ideas on how we can balance our state's continued fluctuating insurance premium issues.
At times we disagreed and times there was common ground - - but my position never waivered in that the people of Louisiana deserve to be protected when they are victims of someone else's bad decisions, and that there are avenues to reduce insurance premiums in the long run that may not be immediately popular.
I thank the LSU LAW JOURNAL FOR SOICAL JUSTICE & POLICY for this invitation. Professor John Church for facilitating this productive dialogue, and all my fellow panelists for their insight.
