Nancy Landry
Award Winning Family Law Pioneer
Nancy Landry is a Family Law Counselor, committed to helping
Louisiana families help themselves.
Nancy grew up in Lafayette. She graduated Lafayette High
with Honors in 1980. Nancy graduated from LSU in 1985 with a
Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology. Nancy then graduated
from LSU Law School in 1990.
While clerking for Judge Phyllis Keaty, in Family Court for the
15th Judicial District, Nancy recognized that many families
make too little to afford traditional legal representation, but too
much to receive free legal services. Many had no choice but to
struggle their way through the complicated procedures without
professional assistance.
This clogged the courts, created hardship for the families, and
made it more difficult to achieve results that were beneficial for
all the family members -- parents and children.
Nancy set out to establish a unique kind of law practice to help
address this problem. She researched the legal systems of
other states, and is the first to offer "Unbundled Legal
Services" to her clients here in Acadiana. Simply explained,
Nancy helps families help themselves. She explains the
process, helps with forms and pleadings and coaches them on
how to appear in court on their own. Most of all, this kind of
service costs the family less than traditional legal
representation. If they need full representation, Nancy does
that for them also.
The result is that more of these families can effectively present
their issues in family court, the courts run more efficiently, and
there is a greater chance of achieving beneficial outcomes for
these families.
Nancy's pioneering family law work was recognized with a 2006
"Women of Excellence" Award from The Lafayette Commission
on the Needs of Women.
