In Lafayette, the names Mike Fussell & Lucas Colligan carry some real weight. Folks around here know them - not just as attorneys, but as two men who show up, stand up, and fight hard for the people of Acadiana.

At Fussell & Colligan, we’re proud to be a hometown firm built on trust, community, and the kind of reputation you earn one client at a time. When life gets complicated, you want lawyers you don’t have to second-guess… and in Lafayette, you already know who that is.

Mike Fussell.

We’re proud of our Acadiana roots... the food, the culture, the people...

But just like the pelican spreads its wings, so do we.

From the bayous of Acadiana to the streets of New Orleans, from Baton Rouge to Shreveport, we proudly serve clients across Louisiana. Small town values, big reach ... that’s how we practice.

We believe in being hometown heroes for our clients, no matter where they call home.

We were excited to celebrate National Leave the Office Early Day...

Then we remembered we have deadlines... And clients.... And insurance companies who apparently never sleep.

So instead, we'll celebrate by leaving the office exactly 7 minutes earlier than usual and calling it a win. 😎

If you need us, we're still here... working hard, answering questions, and fighting for our you!

But if you happen to catch us walking to the parking lot with unusual enthusiasm this afternoon... no you didn't. 👀 🤣😜

💬 “When my daughters ask me what I do as a lawyer, I like to tell them, ‘I take care of problems for people.’ It may be someone who is injured, or a business deal gone bad. Once I’m on their case it restores peace of mind by allowing the client to refocus on their day to day lives.” — J. Michael Fussell, Jr.

It's FAQ Friday!

We get this question a lot - "How can I afford an attorney?" So, here’s the simple answer: We work on a contingency fee. That means you don’t pay us unless we recover money for you.

We believe access to justice shouldn’t depend on what’s in your bank account, especially when someone is already carrying the weight of an injury, medical bills, and uncertainty about the future.

We see this work as service. When a client trusts us with their case, we step in, stand beside them, and do the hard work until the end. And if we don’t succeed for you, you owe us nothing.

Acadiana deserves advocacy that puts it's people first.
