💬 “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.

Some of the most important work we do has nothing to do with a courtroom.
It’s the work of investing in our families, making memories, and building relationships that last a lifetime. ❤️

For Mike, time spent with his daughters is time well spent. Whether it’s a conversation, a road trip, or just simply being together, those moments are opportunities to pour into them, lead by example, and strengthen the relationship they’ll carry with them for years to come.

And at Fussell & Colligan, we believe that is what really matters. Family is everything. It’s one of the reasons we care so deeply about the families who trust us when they need help. We know that behind every case is a person, a family, and a life.

Our faith reminds us that our greatest responsibility isn’t just what we accomplish, it’s who we invest in and what we leave behind.

We're grateful for the beautiful reminder that the best memories aren’t always the big ones. Sometimes, they’re simply the moments we choose to spend together. 💙

Happy from our FC Family!

Drivers in Louisiana are required to maintain minimal policy limits of 15k/30k/25k. Under new Louisiana law, uninsured drivers are prohibited under most circumstances from collecting the first $100,000.00 of bodily injury damages and property damages, even if the other driver is at fault.

Driving without insurance in Louisiana is a risk you do not want to take. Speak with your local agent to ensure that you and your family are covered in the event of an unfortunate accident.

As always, we are here to answer any of your questions.

Last night, our Fussell & Colligan family had the honor of attending the 2026 Best of Acadiana Awards, where our firm was recognized as being voted one of the Top 3 Law Firms in Acadiana, and Mike Fussell was named one of the Top 3 Attorneys!

To say we are grateful is an understatement.

We opened our doors on August 1st, 2025, with a simple mission: to serve our community, stand up for our clients, and treat every person who walks through our doors like family.

And here we are, in our very first year, standing alongside some of the most established and widely recognized names in our industry, with this kind of recognition from the very people we work so hard to serve. That is something we will never take for granted.

We may not have the big billboards or the loudest advertising, but we believe in showing up, doing the work, building relationships, and earning trust one client at a time. To know that our community sees that, believes in us, and took the time to vote for us means more than we could ever put into words.

To our FC Family, followers, friends, clients, and everyone who voted for us ... THANK YOU! You are the reason this recognition means so much. You have welcomed us, supported us, and helped us grow in ways we could only hope for when we first opened our doors.

We are just getting started, Acadiana! And we are so thankful to be doing it right here, at home, with all of you.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in Fussell & Colligan.

It's Meet the Team Monday..... and we can't forget our furry friend, Justice! 🐿️⚖️

So far his duties include:

• Watching the parking lot
• Judging everyone who walks by
• Demanding snacks from staff
• Waving at the traffic on Pinhook
• Protecting the firm from insurance adjusters

If you’re coming by the office and see him out front, just know two things:

1️⃣ He’s in charge.
2️⃣ If you bring snacks, your odds of getting past security go way up! (same goes for the front desk) 😎

Before you buy a product, you check the label.
You read the ingredients.
You look up reviews.
You do your research.

Why should choosing an attorney be any different?

When it comes to something as important as your case, your future, and your family, you deserve more than a quick decision. You deserve an attorney with a proven track record, real experience, and a reputation you can trust.

At Fussell & Colligan, we believe informed clients make the best decisions. That’s why we encourage you to ask questions, read reviews, and truly understand who you’re choosing to be by your side.

Do your research. And when you do, we’re confident you’ll find your way to us.
