Matt Ory Did Not Start This Firm to Play It Safe.
Growing up in South Louisiana, Matt learned the value of discipline from his father, a man he describes as the most intentional person he has ever known. That foundation shaped everything about how Ory Law Group operates today: calculated, committed, and never willing to cut corners. When Matt takes on your case, every move has a purpose. That is the standard his clients deserve, and it is the standard this firm delivers every single day.

We Take Them Personally.
A lot of law firms talk about putting clients first. At Ory Law Group, that is not a slogan. It is how we practice law. From the very first phone call, you will work directly with attorneys who know your name, understand your situation, and care about how this turns out for you and your family.
Our team has spent over 15 years standing up for people throughout all of the district 9 parishes. We have recovered millions of dollars for personal injury and workers’ compensation victims and earned more than 25 not guilty verdicts for clients facing criminal charges. Those results come from preparation, honesty, and a refusal to settle for less than what our clients deserve. We built this firm to serve the people of South Louisiana, and that mission drives every decision we make.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common Questions About Hiring a Lawyer in Louisiana
How much does it cost to hire Ory Law Group for a personal injury case?
For personal injury cases, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don't pay us anything unless we recover compensation for you. There are no upfront costs and no hourly fees. This allows you to focus on your recovery while we handle the legal process on your behalf.
What should I do right after a car accident or workplace injury in Louisiana?
First, seek medical attention even if you feel fine. Some injuries don't show symptoms right away. Document the scene with photos, exchange information with the other driver, and file a police report. Then, contact an attorney before speaking with the other party's insurance company. What you say early on can affect your case.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Louisiana?
Louisiana has a two-year prescriptive period (similar to a statute of limitations in other states) for most personal injury claims. That means you generally have one year from the date of the accident or injury to file a lawsuit. Missing that deadline could mean losing your right to pursue compensation, so it's important to reach out to an attorney as soon as possible.
What types of criminal cases does Ory Law Group handle?
We defend clients facing a wide range of criminal charges, including DUI/DWI, drug offenses, felony charges, and other serious allegations. Whether it's your first offense or a complex case, we build a defense strategy tailored to the specific facts of your situation and fight to protect your rights throughout the process.
Can I still get workers’ compensation if the injury was partially my fault?
Yes. Louisiana workers' compensation is a no-fault system, which means you're generally entitled to benefits regardless of who caused the workplace injury. You don't have to prove your employer was negligent. Benefits can cover medical treatment, a portion of your lost wages, and rehabilitation costs.
What makes Ory Law Group different from other law firms in Louisiana?
We're a Louisiana-based firm that serves the communities of Thibodaux, Houma, and New Iberia—these are our neighbors, not just our clients. Our team takes a hands-on, client-first approach. You'll work directly with your attorney, receive honest case evaluations, and get the aggressive representation your situation demands.
