Jennifer is one of Louisiana’s most incisive and efficient advocates—an attorney trusted to simplify complex issues, sharpen arguments, and advocate in a style that carries inherent authority. Her work is defined by rigorous legal analysis and persuasive clarity, making her a powerful asset in high-stakes appeals, writ practice, and dispositive motion litigation.
Her career includes service as Senior Counsel to Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, managing constitutional and appellate litigation on behalf of the State, and as a Visiting Professor at Southern University Law Center, where she taught Torts, Louisiana Civil Procedure, Sale and Lease, and Obligations. She also spent nearly a decade at Walters Papillion Thomas Cullens, LLC, handling complex
civil litigation and drafting pivotal motions and appellate briefing in high-stakes matters.
Now at Smith Trial & Appellate Lawyers, Jennifer brings that same high-level judgment and execution to trial teams and clients facing consequential litigation. She is known for identifying the issues that decide cases, building arguments that withstand scrutiny at every level of review, and producing arguments designed to win—efficiently, persuasively, and decisively.
