Louisiana Personal Injury Lawyer
Three Generations of McGoverns Forging Ahead in Legal Profession
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 to our clients, but to make our community a safer place for all of us.
Attorney Glenn C. McGovern has built a thriving civil law practice over the past three decades, focusing on personal injury, civil rights, toxic torts, employment law and products liability litigation.

Metairie Employment Law Attorney
Since 1977, our law firm has obtained multimillion-dollar settlements and favorable jury verdicts for clients in employment law, police procedures, toxic torts, judgments, and personal injury. Part of our law firm's success stems from our trial skills. We believe jurors are the guardians of our community, whose function is to make our community safer. Attorney Glenn McGovern seeks to touch jurors' conscience through illustrating our 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.
- Car and truck defects — Mr. McGovern was one of the first trial attorneys to handle personal injury claims on behalf of police officers against Ford Motor Company for the Crown Victoria sedan. The car's defective design caused a number of fuel tank explosions that resulted in severe injuries and wrongful death.
- Police brutality — Our law firm has been at the forefront of several police brutality cases. As a result of our pursuit of justice, policies and procedures involving the use of handcuffs and batons have improved.
- Toxic exposure — We have represented mothers with cancer and other life-threatening medical conditions caused by exposure to creosote, a wood preservative, during their pregnancy.
- Employment law — We hold employers accountable for acts of discrimination and retaliation against whistleblowers.
- Sexual abuse by doctors, nurses and physician assistants — We hold doctors and hospitals accountable for sex abuse, sexual battery and rapes.
