How Can I Help You Move Forward?

A New Orleans native with more than 38 years of experience, I provide numerous insurers and businesses with legal advice and counsel at the highest level of professional excellence, as ranked by my fellow lawyers and members of the judiciary. I believe that thorough investigation and a well-focused action plan result in efficient representation for clients, and my case management strategy is known for achieving successful resolutions for my clients. 

Overview

Kris Redmann’s legal practice is as diverse as the community and culture which surround New Orleans. A shareholder in Lugenbuhl’s New Orleans office, Kris represents insurers, businesses and individuals in general and complex civil litigation across numerous legal fields. A majority of his work involves commercial general liability, products liability, trucking and transportation liability, construction defects, corporate and commercial litigation and bad faith litigation. 

For more than 36 years at Lugenbuhl, Kris has represented a wide range of clients, including both insurers and businesses, in civil litigation in both the trial and appellate courts of Louisiana, as well as in mediations and arbitrations. Included in Kris’s litany of successful representations is the defense of insurers in complex and challenging class actions and multi-district litigation. He has also counseled clients on matters involving personal injury, transportation, general maritime, construction, products and contracts, helping them appreciate the many business risks which overlap in the fast-paced industries surrounding New Orleans. 

After graduating from law school, Kris was honored to serve as judicial clerk for the Honorable A. J. McNamara, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Louisiana.
