Firm Overview

  St. Tammany Parish Criminal Law Attorney

If you or a family member has been charged with a crime, I know you are probably scared and don't know what to do next. There are a lot of lawyers who say they will help you, but who do you trust?

I will meet with you at your home or jail

I am criminal defense attorney Ernest Bauer. At The Law Office of Ernest J. Bauer Jr., in Covington, Louisiana, criminal law is the only thing I do. I won't make any promises that I can't keep, because you don't need that right now. You need honest answers from a lawyer who will talk to you like an adult and not judge you. I do everything I can to answer your questions quickly, and will meet with you at your home, jail, or any other convenient location without delay when necessary.

Contact me to discuss your charges right away.

I have helped many people who are in the same legal trouble as you. When I became a lawyer, I swore an oath that I would provide the best representation possible for my clients. When we meet to discuss your charges, I think you will notice something different about me. I won't talk down to you. I won't judge you or the crime you are charged with. You are a human being that deserves respect and the best possible representation I can give you. I never forget that this is still America and that you are considered innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Financial terms available to pay your lawyer fee

You need straight answers from a lawyer who will treat you with respect. I will never make a promise that I know I can't keep. But I will promise to provide you with the most aggressive, skillful, and effective defense I can possibly give. In some cases, this will mean that your charges will be dismissed. In other cases, it may mean that I can keep you out of jail. It may also mean that the best outcome we can work for is to have you face the very minimum amount of time possible in jail.

A lawyer you can feel good about hiring

You don't have to settle for a lawyer who forgets your name and treats you like a case number. I will work directly with you during the entire progress of your case. Contact me and I will come and meet with you in your home, at the jail where you are confined, or any place that is most convenient for you or your family.
