Aggressive Criminal Defense and Strategic Expungements

An arrest or active investigation is a serious threat to your freedom, career, and reputation. It is vital to seek legal counsel immediately to protect your constitutional rights. Mouton Law Firm provides comprehensive, tactical criminal defense in Northwest Louisiana, representing clients in city, state, and federal courts. Our practice areas in criminal defense include:

• Drug charges, including possession, distribution, and manufacturing offenses.
• Violent crimes, burglary, theft, and weapons charges.
• Expungements to clean up your public records and restore your employment and housing opportunities.
• Comprehensive sex offense defense and dedicated assistance with sex offender registry removal.

By conducting independent investigations, analyzing evidence for procedural errors, and challenging the prosecution's witnesses, we work tirelessly to achieve dismissed charges, reduced penalties, or favorable verdicts at trial.

Trusted Representation for DUI/DWI and Traffic Violations

A DUI/DWI conviction in Louisiana carries severe penalties, including license suspension, steep fines, and mandatory jail time. Additionally, simple traffic tickets can cause your insurance rates to skyrocket. Our firm specializes in DUI/DWI defense, identifying weaknesses in field sobriety test administration and breathalyzer calibration. We also help clients manage and resolve pending traffic violations to keep their driving records clean. When you only get one call after an arrest, make it count by partnering with a trial-tested defender who knows how to challenge the state's evidence.

Restoring Lives Through Personal Injury and Civil Advocacy

In addition to our premier criminal defense practice, Mouton Law Firm represents injured victims in Shreveport and surrounding parishes.
