Every attorney in Louisiana seems to have an Italian-sounding name.

Let's say after they hacked my computer, they stole my car and took it to someone's house and used my credit cards to buy wine coolers. Think that's something he could help clear up any misunderstandings?

This is accurate. I would probably put Peter Flowers in there with Miciotto but definitely in second place.

Frank Holthaus is definitely the guy you want to have in your corner. He's been discussed on this board before

His motto is bleed'em and plea'em. A lot of the big older names around NOLA take a big retainer continue the case a bunch and then sell a plea.

Eddie Castaigne, Ralph Whalen, and Frank Desalvo are all smart and seasoned pros, and each has their strengths. All 3 are getting a little long in the tooth and tend to "mail it in" if the client isn't a big spender or high profile case. I'd say Frank is more responsive to his clients, while Eddie and Ralph are probably slightly better in front of a jury. Frank can usually get a better deal. I'd put all three in the category of just below the very top.

Gibbens made a little noise helping Heebe off, didn't hurt that it brought down the entire US Attorney's office. Heebe also had an unlimited budget to work with, that always helps.

I'd say he would make a solid choice, if you have the $
