The Harrington Law Firm and the way they do business is about family, in the truest sense of the word.

“By definition, we are a family firm. But it goes way beyond that,” says partner Eddie Harrington. “My dad began practicing law over 46 years ago here and practiced with his brothers Rick and Billy Joe,” Eddie continued, “I joined him in practice when I finished law school 14 years ago. So the practice of law has always been about family for us.”

Rodney says that the family aspect of their firm extends to the way they treat their clients.

“We tell our clients that when you hire Eddie and I to represent you, you become part of our family, The Harrington Law Firm family. We believe that strongly and live it every day in the way we handle our business.”

“We think that the family aspect of our firm and the one on one treatment we give our clients is something that sets us apart from some of the big billboard/TV advertising firms, many of which are located in Baton Rouge and New Orleans,” says Eddie.

“We like to say that when you hire us as your attorneys, you get US, Rodney and Eddie,” he continued “You’re not shuffled off to some underling.” Rodney says that the firm’s focus on family is further evidenced by their staff.

“Our staff is an integral part of The Harrington Law Firm family” said Rodney. “We truly believe we have the best, most efficient, most caring staff in Louisiana” he continued, “some of them have been with us for multiple decades. They are hard working, fiercely loyal, respectful to our clients, and to us, they are family.”

“If a member of my actual family has been wronged, harmed, or treated badly in some way, I will stand up and fight to protect that family member. Most people would,” says Eddie. “We fight for our clients as if they were our blood relatives. Again, to us, they ARE family.”

Office Manager Melanie Hicks, who first began working for Rodney as a student worker nearly 30 years ago, echoes Rodney’s and Eddie’s sentiments.

“I think it goes back to the fact that Rodney and Eddie have big hearts and so do the members of our staff,” says Melanie. “People that come to us are coming because they’ve had some problem, been in a car wreck, had financial problems, been denied social security, something like that. Generally they’re nervous, scared, and upset. We realize that and always try to treat them with the same dignity, respect, and empathy that we would members of our own immediate family.”

“The thing we hear most from our clients”, Melanie continued, “is ‘They treated me like family.’”
