The Law Office of James A. Graham LLC
James Graham has worked as an educator in New Orleans. He then served in executive positions in real estate and education. After earning a degree from Loyola Law School, Mr. Graham sought to use his real world experience to benefit clients in his community. He is a member of the New Orleans Bar Association and the American Bar Association. Mr. Graham is admitted to practice before state and district courts in Louisiana.
A shining moment for Mr. Graham came when he assisted his first client to secure incorporation papers so that he could legally operate his new business in Louisiana. Another case involved assisting an individual expunge his record in order to obtain gainful employment to support his family. Due to an existing record that was no longer relevant but still on file, he had been denied employment. Cases like this are especially important to Mr. Graham.
