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

Mr. Bauer was very pleasant to work with. He was AFFORDABLE, RELIABLE, DILIGENT, PROFESSIONAL, and THOROUGH!!! We had an extremely hard case but he managed to do the impossible. He gave us the best outcome! Trust me, we were seeking several lawyers and he was the most upfront, affordable, and successful. You can’t beat that! He will give it to you how it is and won’t sugarcoat anything but he will always have the client’s best interest. Not only that, but he was very easy to communicate and reach when you needed him and will give you updates throughout the process. It doesn’t matter where you reside in the New Orleans area, he is the BEST lawyer around!!!!Kathy Nguyen

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Ernest Bauer is an exceptionally skilled and highly knowledgeable attorney. His professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail are truly outstanding. I strongly recommend visiting him for anyone seeking expert legal guidance—he provides clear, reliable advice and ensures all aspects of your case are handled with the utmost care. A top-tier attorney in every sense.”Texaco Taexaco

I also cannot say enough good things about Ernie. He is super responsive and works quickly to try and help you out the best he can. He is also flexible about payment which helps as well. I have dealt with many attorneys and he is by far the best I’ve ever dealt with and as much as I hope k never need him it’s good to know I have someone that’s got my back.Sam Schultz

Mr Bauer is very professional. Does not judge and is kind and courteous. I trust him for my case and am very thankful and blessed to have him on my side.James Demoruelle

5 STAR ATTORNEY CAN'T EXPRESS IN WORDS HOW GREAT THIS ATTORNEY DID FOR ME Im never the type to leave reviews but when it comes to one of the biggest decisions someone may have to make, it be very stressful. He eases this process and I recommend him without a doubt.Adam Giroir

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

Best lawyer in Louisiana. Caring, Professional, and who you need in your corner.Aaron Lindsey

(Translated by Google) Excellent, I highly recommend him. He's a trustworthy lawyer. What are you waiting for? Hurry and find him now! (Original) Muy bueno lo recomiendo es abogado de confianza que esperas date prisa búscalo ahoElvin Boss

Last year, I was at the lowest point in my life-I was lost and needed help in navigating this whole legal process I was facing. I was having a whole host of concerns that had me feeling extremely anxious, afraid, and defeated, knowing that I was facing the unknown and facing consequences that could potentially change my entire life. When I met Ernie, I was terrified and panicking. Ernie was so compassionate and patient with me and he didn't make me feel like just another client, he made me feel like his friend. We exchanged information about my case, and were able to quickly build rapport and trust. He was sympathetic when discussing my fears associated with criminal charges and the consequences that were pending against me. He took time to understand my current situation, develop my case, and worked with me to decide on a course of action. The positive end result he was able to achieve helped me get my life back on track. He took the initiative to go beyond my expectations and pursue a resolution for my case, while being understanding of my financial situation and working with me to ensure that I retained legal representation throughout my case, and I will never ever be able thank him enough for being there for me during the hardest, most trying time in my life !! If you're seeking legal help from someone who truly cares about the welfare of his clients and who always goes beyond the call of duty, call Ernie today!Mary Clare Tranum

Mr. Bauer is an amazing attorney. He took genuine care of me and my case. He answered all of my questions and concerns and always gave me honest feedback. He was able to get me out of a serious situation and got me the best possible outcome.maritza acosta

Mr. Bauer is a very good and honest lawyer. He took care of my case just as he said and the case was resolved better than expected. Thank you Mr. Bauer!ryanche4g

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

I was blessed to have Mr Ernest J. Bauer, JR handle my criminal case. He is very smart, sufficient, pays close attention to every detail and is also kind and giving with his time. He kept his word. He showed up for every court date for over a year, and always kept in contact. He explained everything to me in lamons terms so I could understand what was happening. Mr Bauer is the best in St Tammany for criminal cases. I am so thankful to have had him as my attorney. Thank you Mr Earnie.Julie Alfortish

I highly recommend Mr. Bauer. He worked hard for me! I appreciate him greatly.Courtney Savoie

World class representation. Always there for me when I needed him. Can’t recommend him enoughPerry James

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

I found myself in the unfortunate event of getting pulled over by overzealous cops who have nothing else to do but pick on people. A retainer later Ernie came to the rescue, he was a Superhero in a suit. He quickly got involved and let his presence be known. He broke down the charges, and worked diligently to resolve my case. I can confidently say we got the best outcome after months of waiting and court date postponing. As a tourist from another city I did not know what to expect and had to use a good friend’s judgement to find Ernie. Don't waste your time looking for other legal aid options if you have already come in contact with Him.Ezequiel Negrete
