In 1993, Cheniere Shack was started in a run-down building that had been vacant for years.

The building was painted barn yard red, five small tables were put in the small lobby and a “walk up� window was added to the building.

Originally opened to serve Bar-B-Q, Hamburgers, Poboys and crawfish, Cheniere Shack continued to add new food entrees and venture into seafood and steaks as the business grew.

Beautiful Made Affordable.

eff Guerriero is proud to be a part of the legal profession and to carry on a family tradition.

The law firm of Guerriero and Guerriero is one of the oldest and most prestigious plaintiff law firms in North Louisiana.

It was established by Jeff ’s grandfather, Joseph S. Guerriero, more than 85 years ago. Jeff’s father, Joe D. Guerriero, followed in his father’s footsteps, and now, with more than 25 years of litigation experience, Jeff continues this legacy of aggressive and effective legal representation. The Guerriero and Guerriero law firm is known throughout Louisiana for their tenacious representation of clients and for their superior courtroom skills. The firm’s areas of practice focus on personal injury, motor vehicle accidents, railroad accidents, wrongful death, oilfield accidents, nursing home negligence, drug injuries, defective products, class actions and medical malpractice. Jeff has represented thousands of clients and has collected millions of dollars in case settlements, judge verdicts and jury verdict. In fact, Jeff has

earned the nickname The Injury Attorney.

In fact, Jeff recently obtained a 500,000 dollar jury verdict Jeff genuinely cares about and takes a sincere interest in his clients and their families. Jeff personally meets with every client and works on their case. He often spends countless hours outside of the office visiting hospitalized clients and their families to comfort and support them emotionally.

Jeff takes client representation to a new level.

Former client Rose Roccaforte, 80, said, “I love Jeff. He settled my case over three years ago, and he still visits me. Jeff is more than my attorney. He’s become part of my family.”

Jeff devotes a large amount of time towards helping Rose Roccaforte individuals who cannot afford effective legal representation. He was voted Pro Bono Lawyer of the year for providing free legal assistance to the elderly.

However, pro bono work is only a small part of the volunteer services Jeff provides on an annual basis.
