Biography

A successful investigation leaves no stone unturned, and Andrea Albert digs into investigations with a keen attention to detail and an eye toward a long-term strategy to bring about the best resolution for her clients. She is a member of the firm’s Emergency Response Team for transportation matters, assisting clients from the time of an accident through the investigation process and litigation.

Andrea’s practice focuses on defense litigation, from trial through appeal, and includes the areas of transportation and trucking (including cargo claims), insurance coverage, property damage, premises liability, contractual liability, and personal injury. After law school, Andrea served as a law clerk to the Honorable Marc T. Amy in Louisiana’s Third Circuit Court of Appeal, which guided her in developing an appellate practice. She represents clients throughout Louisiana and Texas serving as counsel of choice for several of the largest transportation and insurance companies in the country.

A native of Lafayette, Louisiana, Andrea is based out of the firm’s New Orleans and Mandeville offices. She is active both in her community and the industries she represents, and has been named to the New Orleans’ CityBusiness Leadership in Law Class and New Orleans Magazine’s Top Lawyers in New Orleans. She also served as New Orleans Chapter Representative and two-term president of Executive Women International. She is a member of the Trucking Industry Defense Association’s diversity committee. Andrea routinely presents continuing education programs for claims professionals on topics ranging from bad faith to accident investigation.

When she is not investigating and litigating on behalf of her clients, Andrea is always willing to help and has served as a trustee at her church and as the president of her homeowners’ association. She is a life-long athlete who enjoys good competition and any activity that takes her outdoors.
