I have considered posing this same question to the OT myself.

Someone has to know the numbers.

Gordon is a friend. He is a fantastic person, has a wonderful family, and is extremely generous.

I know what his marketing budget is, but I'm not posting it here.

It's pretty amazing, if you drive to the BR airport he has almost every billboard in north BR. He clearly knows his market

Fun fact: he originally wanted to put an 18 wheeler on the roof of his building

I notice that every time I drive out to Port Hudson.

The only other boards on that stretch of interstate are a church and several HIV treatment centers (not testing... treatment!) - that says something about the area.

Who cares. He's not the official injury lawyer of LSU.

What happens to our boy Morris? Either the amount of advertising Gordon does makes Morris irrelevant, or he's one foot out the game.


He's making almost as much money producing commercials for other lawyers around the country as he does chasing ambulances.

I almost mentioned the exact same thing, you won't find a billboard in north BR along 10 that isn't an ambulance chaser lawyer, an aids fact, or the single church pastor board

His father, now deceased, was quite the philanthropist in BR, especially with LSU. I had the opportunity to meet him during a personal exchange ( family related) for a couple of hours. He was an very generous. Although personal injury was not his primary practice, he made big bank. I would imagine all of his children got multiple millions upon his death, not to mention whatever from his own law firm.

Alexander Shaunnarah does that.


The guy has to have a marketing budget to rival Coca-Cola. I honestly think there's more billboards in Alabama with his face on them than ones that don't.

He is not dumb. He pays for half of the Uhigh sports teams to go to school. Think how much free publicity it gets him when mommas go home and recruit clients for the G. Now most of the Uhigh T shirts have a big G on the back. Apparently anything is for sale. Even a supposedly public school.

Jerry was a great lawyer and a good man, but he absolutely made his millions off personal injury, former President of the Louisiana Trial Lawyers Association, we now call ourselves the Advocates of Christ I think.

Gordon has made a ton of money but he had a nice leg up.
