According to the Advocate:

quote:

'Get it Done" or 'One Call, That's All?' Gordon McKernan tests Morris Bart on his home turf.


quote:

McKernan is challenging Bart on his home turf in what is shaping up to be an epic battle between two legal titans – with big bank accounts, fierce competitive streaks and a flair for showmanship – that will play out on a public stage.

McKernan says he’ll grab a good-sized chunk of the business in New Orleans because he has succeeded in every other market in Louisiana.

It won’t happen, Bart says. He’s confident McKernan will become only the latest out-of-town law firm that makes a splash in New Orleans but ends up failing to knock him off his perch.

Just to be sure, Bart has plastered his face on 10 to 20 more billboards in New Orleans and upped his TV advertising.

During a two-hour stretch during the Today Show on Tuesday morning, Bart accounted for seven of the 21 ads by personal injury law firms, while McKernan had four.

The Advocate

I guess neither one of them will be happy until they take up all the billboards in the state.

This is why Louisiana is the 49th worst state in the Union. Frivolous lawsuits are killing us.

As long as the two clowns exist, we all lose. The entire state loses.

Enjoy the billboards - you're paying for them.

I prefer Dudley DeBossier. They’re the official injury partners of the LSU fighting Tigers athletics.

I didn't include it, but they also talked about Dudley DeBossier in the article briefly.

quote:

Personal injury lawyers speaking privately said they believe Dudley DeBosier is currently the second-biggest firm in New Orleans after Bart’s.

Steve DeBosier, whose firm is based in Baton Rouge but has operated for years in New Orleans, also expresses confidence that McKernan’s entry won’t hurt him.

“If you call me in six months, I think I’d tell you it didn’t make a difference,” he said.

They've made themselves the "official" injury partners of several athletic programs in the state. I want to puke when I see their ads during Cajuns athletic events.

LSU needs to get some NIL from Morris Bart
He's a big pels supporter so maybe he can prop up our hoops teams

Only trashy people view those signs positively. What a legacy.

They must use the same advertising firm, they have the same graphics with their billboards and commercials...

Trash. They represent so much that is wrong with this country. Sue happy state of mind.

Their billboards are eye sores, too. Visual pollution.
