Mr Ernest cares, he went above and beyond to get me the best possible outcome. If you need representation, he is the best choice.Douglas Francis
Best lawyer in Louisiana. Caring, Professional, and who you need in your corner.Aaron Lindsey
I had the pleasure of Mr Bauer handling my case. He is knowledgeable, incredibly detail oriented, and the most responsive attorney I have ever dealt with. I never had to wait more than a few hours for a response from him, even after hours. I almost felt guilty for monopolizing his time but he never made me feel like i was imposing on him.
His fees were completely transparent and reasonable for the quality service he provides.
Do yourself a favor and retain this man.Todd Holley
Ernest Bauer is by far one of the best attorneys in St. Tammany Parish. Not only is he professional, but he is someone who genuinely cares for his clients. He is very responsive and will get back with you in a timely manner for whatever you need. He will give you honest advice on what choices you need to make in order for the best outcome for yourself. He won’t just tell you what you want to hear and he is a person who is actually honest in his career. He is worth every penny. I would recommend Ernest to anyone in need of a great lawyer.Amanda Foster

I wish I could give Mr. Bauer 6 stars if I could! He puts forth his whole HEART into his work. It's quite rare to find a highly reputable attorney who does not treat you as just another #. Ernie is extremely personable, professional, compassionate, intelligent and assiduous. I truly feel like Ernie made the absolute impossible, happen. I'll be eternally grateful to him for his absolute patience, empathy and dedication. Because of Mr. Bauers' successful efforts, I feel that a huge, 1000 lb. weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I just cry.... Expressing how huge of a relief his help has been. He went above and beyond for me. He is also very accommodating with the payment process. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!!! Thank you so much Ernie! G-d bless you and your loved ones.Asma Esther Kiani
Where should I start? Mr.Bauer was very personable, responded quickly, and with very knowledgeable information, and answers. Mr. Bauer was always honest with me about my case, and always steered me in the right directions. Mr. Bauer also fought tooth and nails for me and went over and beyond to help grant a judgement that’s fits. Mr. Ernest is by far the best lawyer on the Northshore. There should be a Six Star Rating!rico keller

Muy bueno lo recomiendo es abogado de confianza que esperas date prisa búscalo ahoElvin Boss
I was dealing with some pretty heavy stuff legally when I reached out to Mr. Bauer. I was looking at doing serious jail time and leaving my family to struggle without me. After six months of anxiety and stress, I can say I was lucky and blessed to have him as my attorney. He fought hard for me and I walked out of court today a free man. The way I see it he saved my family years of hardship without me and gave me a second chance at life. Words can’t express the gratitude I feel toward Mr. Bauer and I hope one day to be in a position where I can give back to him as much as he has given us. I recommend him highly to anyone who is in a tough position and needs help like I did. Thank you Mr. Bauer 🙏Chris
If you’re looking for a lawyer who will fight your case the best he can, is a go getter in and out the court room, responds persistently with integrity and honesty, dresses sharp in the court room, not messy or sloppy, then you found the best I’ve ever seen inside the 22nd judicial court room. I’m humbled and thankful for, Ernie and all he’s done.Michael Lemonier
