Lee Rudin of RUDIN LAW opened his law firm in 2023 after coming to the realization that he was tired of watching the little guy get taken advantage of by those in power. At RUDIN LAW, the message is simple: its time to stop letting Insurance Companies and Corporate America push you around; it's time to stop being polite... and GET RUDE!
For six years in a row (2019-2024), Lee has been selected to the Louisiana "Rising Stars" list by Super Lawyers Magazine, an honor bestowed upon less than 2.5% of Louisiana attorneys. Lee received his trial and deposition training through the National Institute of Trial Advocacy (NITA). He serves on NITA's faculty and has done so for nearly a decade.
