About

Born and raised in Baton Rouge, I am a product of our local public schools. I graduated from LSU in 1983 with a degree in Finance. I graduated from Loyola New Orleans Law School in 1987, but before graduating, I tried my first jury case. It was a manslaughter charge. The Orleans District Attorney was impressed enough to offer me a job upon graduation. I was an Assistant District Attorney for Mr. Harry Connick from 1987 through 1990 and have been on my own since then.As to public service after the District Attorney's Office, in 2009 I was elected to the Louisiana State Senate for the Baton Rouge area, District 16. It has been an honor to represent the people of Baton Rouge. During the process, I believe I have become a better lawyer.Whether your issue is a maritime matter, serious personal injury matter, wrongful death, business litigation or criminal defense, I can help you. I have been helping folks just like you for a long time and am very good at what I do. Perhaps I can help you with an important matter.  Give me a call, day or night, and let's talk about your issue.

Dan is very knowledge of the law and handles his cases in a professional manner. He guided us through a difficult process. He returns all calls and emails in a timely manner. He answered our questions and explained the entire legal process in detail so that we understood every step. I would certainly recommend Dan to anyone seeking legal counsel and/or advise. Dan and his staff have been patient and very easy to work with.

Dan Claitor was and is my attorney. He was very easy to understand and explained what every step covered. He is and was my attorney for my two auto accidents. He is a great attorney.

I hired Dan after the insurance company blamed me entirely. That was not true at all. He sued those unfair people and we resolved my accident case fairly. Thanks Dan for not letting those guys push me around.

Did an awesome job even recommend me to an immigration lawyer. It was a consultation but I still got a lot of information and it came in handy

He worked very hard to get me on PTI when the odds were against to do so. He has been very helpful and hard working in helping me get out of trouble and he did just that.

I wanted to contest a ticket I received for speeding. I was concerned how it might impact my insurance. Given that a ticket is a pretty minor thing, I didn’t expect the level of service this office gave me. They treated me with respect, charged a fair price and got a very good result. Thank you. I would recommend Mr Claitor.

Dan is professional and patient. My court case took longer to resolve than we originally thought and he remained helpful and proactive throughout the duration of it. Would definitely call him again.
