Cup holders were dressed to impress judges of the annual costume contest while dancing to live bands that seemed to be performing on every block corner.

MISTLETOE MARKETPLACE NEW YEAR & NEW YOU FAMILY TRADITIONS

OF NORTHSHORE

“I try to maintain mindfulness and gratitude as much as possible throughout each day. Obviously, both can be difficult disciplines, but they provide for more fulfilling work, a deeper sense of family, and a more meaningful life.”

JOHN ATTORNEY STEPHENS

COVINGTON | HAMMOND | SLIDELL (985) 277-5550 | FDLTITLE.COM HOW WOULD YOU BEST DESCRIBE YOUR INDUSTRY?

Fleur de Lis Law & Title Company is a full-service transactional law firm that, in addition to residential and commercial title work, offers expertise in estate planning and administration, probate and successions, and corporate and business law (including franchising development). Our dedicated Civil Department focuses on equipping our clients with comprehensive planning and advisement on their personal and business levels.

WHAT SERVICES DO YOU PROVIDE FOR YOUR CLIENTS?

I manage a team of attorneys and legal professionals that provides comprehensive estate planning, administration, and business services. Our goal is to provide these legal services in a clear and efficient manner that ultimately establishes and maintains great working relationships with our clients.

WHAT IS IT YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT YOUR INDUSTRY?

My favorite part of my role with FDL is the enjoyment I find in building relationships with the clients, in conversing with them, getting to know them, and truly helping them. I really enjoy getting to the bottom of their legal matters, however simple or complicated, in such a way that an effective resolution and plan can be achieved. Completing the legal puzzles presented to us by our clients is what results in real peace of mind for the client.

OF NORTHSHORE

“I love to see the success our clients experience when they put aside time to work “on” their business, rather than just “in” their business.”

ATTORNEY CRISTIN BARR

COVINGTON | HAMMOND | SLIDELL (985) 277-5550 | FDLTITLE.COM HOW WOULD YOU BEST DESCRIBE YOUR INDUSTRY?

My role at Fleur De Lis Law & Title is as a transactional attorney on the Business Law team. We’re helping small businesses in the region grow, which helps job creation and economic development.

WHAT SERVICES DO YOU PROVIDE FOR YOUR CLIENTS?

My favorite conversations are with emerging franchisors. The most promising potential emerging franchisors are businesses with 2-5 existing locations and those that are interested in building ongoing royalty streams.

WHAT IS IT YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT YOUR INDUSTRY?

My favorite thing about business law is helping businesses identify and achieve their goals. We view our business clients as partners…we’re there with them for the long haul.

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT IN YOUR INDUSTRY THAT YOU ARE MOST PROUD OF?

COVINGTON | HAMMOND | SLIDELL (985) 277-5550 | FDLTITLE.COM I’m proud of the fact that we’re not your grandfather’s law firm. We’re running the firm like a business, with a focus on transparency, availability, and relationships….and our clients seem to really appreciate it.

OF NORTHSHORE

“My motto is to not take things personally. It’s just an opportunity to show kindness and compassion to turn around someone’s day.”

ATTORNEY REBECCA SAUCIER

COVINGTON | HAMMOND | SLIDELL (985) 277-5550 | FDLTITLE.COM HOW WOULD YOU BEST DESCRIBE YOUR INDUSTRY?

The legal industry is full of opportunities to resolve problems and form protections for your community. And in real estate specifically, we are able to do this in a fast-paced, collaborative environment impacting a vast number of people since we have been experiencing a real estate boom over the past year.

WHAT IS IT YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT YOUR INDUSTRY?

I love to see people at ease when they are done with their estate planning. They come in very apprehensive because who wants to talk about what happens when you die? But after signing everyone is relieved, and they don’t have to think about it again. Also, I love to see businesses grow and thrive. So many people have great ideas but don’t know where to start. I can get you started and help you along the way.

WHAT ORGANIZATIONS OR CHARITIES ARE YOU MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT, AND WHY?

I worked in adoptions for about three years. Through that experience I learned about the Louisiana Heart Gallery, they are a great organization that helps find families for children that are available for adoption. I gained a profound respect for the birth mothers, the adoptive families and the children. I also greatly admire foster parents, they are such amazing people.
