Since 1950 Gold Weems has molded solutions for the businesses and people of the Central South. Vision, strong relationships and a tireless commitment to excellence are our hallmarks.

As one of the state's strongest and most diversified law firms outside New Orleans, Gold Weems has achieved and maintained its preeminent position in the Louisiana legal community through the quality and dedication of its members and staff. Uncompromising standards are reflected in the ability and integrity of these professionals.

The approach of Gold Weems to the practice of law seeks to ensure that each client is served not by a single lawyer, but by firm-wide resources and expertise. The availability of counsel with training and experience in areas of specialization, each committed to analyzing a problem from the client's perspective, assures the efficient achievement of that objective.

Attorneys at Gold Weems are recognized by their distinguished academic backgrounds and professional careers. Superior achievement during law school is a firm trademark; as students, members were elected to the Order of the Coif, edited and served on law review, and received the highest moot court awards. Careers of distinction led present and former firm members to presidency of the Louisiana State Bar Association and to multiple state and federal judgeships.
