About

As a law student, I had the opportunity to work for a federal judge in the Middle District of Louisiana. I also worked in the Gaming Division at the Office of the Attorney General. During my second summer at LSU Law, I was recruited by and worked as a summer associate at the New Orleans firm Montgomery Barnett. After that summer, the firm offered me a full-time job and when I graduated and passed the bar, I became an associate. At Montgomery Barnett, I handled disputes of all sizes, including appeals. I represented the local candle-maker as well as the Norwegian oil company. I was also called upon by Louisiana businesses for planning and advice. My solo practice started in 2012. I advise businesses and if necessary I represent them in court. Most of my business comes from client and attorney referrals and a lot of my clients are lawyers themselves. I’m particularly proud of the diversity of my practice and my clients benefit from this. Because I can afford to select the matters I work on, my clients know I’m genuinely interested in their situation(s).  I’m active in legal leadership roles. As a member of the Louisiana State Bar Association (LSBA) Legislation Committee, I help determine whether the LSBA will speak for all Louisiana attorneys in supporting or opposing pending legislative bills. My practice is fairly evenly divided between state and federal courts, and since 2010, I’ve sat on the Board of Directors of the largest chapter (New Orleans) of the Federal Bar Association. I also sat on the National Board of Directors of the Younger Lawyers Division of the FBA (2011-2014).I was a scholarship track and cross country athlete at The Citadel, in Charleston, South Carolina. I graduated in 1998 with a B.A. in English Literature.I studied law at Louisiana State University’s Paul M. Hebert Law Center (J.D. and Diploma of Civil Law, 2009). I was a member of the Trial Advocacy Board and I competed all over the world as part of LSU’s Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot team.Since it opened in 2010, I’ve been a part owner of a running shop (Varsity Sports) on Magazine Street. I’m also a partner in a New Orleans brewery which opened Uptown in 2017. Every Easter weekend, I produce the professional aspect of our city’s Crescent City Classic 10k run; I work year-round with agents and professional athletes from all over the world. In May of each year, I produce a fun event called the Tchoupitoulas Barathon. I’m also a member of The Round Table Club.I live in Uptown New Orleans with my wife Melissa and our daughter Ellis.

I do not write reviews, but people should know my story. I had just moved to New Orleans, when I got sued by a big national company. It was taking place in Texas. That was bad news already because inhad limited transportation. I was lucky to find Andrew right away. Long story short, he defended me in Austin, I did not even had to go one time to Texas. He dismissed the case. As a small business owner, i am grateful to Andrew. He helped me when I really needed him the most.

Andrew has worked with my management team at two different companies in the New Orleans market. His knowledge of the law, as applied to various day-to-day legal questions, is outstanding. His easy demeanor and common sense approach provides great comfort while solving problems and helping management avoid legal pitfalls associated with running a business. I'd recommend Andrew to anyone as a good legal consultant who can free management up from legal concerns, allowing them to focus on other business concerns.

Mr. Lillly is a very competent, knowledgeable and first rate Attorney. He is thorough and thought provoking in his analysis of the legal questions. I have many years of experience in dealing with lawyers during my 40 year career in Investment banking and Corporate Finance and Mr. Lilly is as good as the best of the best.

I was extremely satisfied with the service Mr. Lilly provided. I came to him for help on one of the worst days of my life. His knowledge of the laws, coupled with his patience in helping me to understand my situation and the road ahead put me totally at ease. I have the utmost faith and confidence in this attorney. I will definitely call him first if another legal matter arises.
