Tonry, Brinson & Glorioso

What Tonry, Brinson & Glorioso does

Tonry, Brinson & Glorioso is a private Louisiana limited liability company (L.L.C.) operating as a full-service law firm headquartered at 245 Pontchartrain Drive in Slidell, with a second office at 1011 North Causeway Blvd., Suite 9, in Mandeville. The firm practices across five core areas: Criminal Defense (DWI, drug offenses, misdemeanors, felonies, probation violations, expungements), Personal Injury (auto, medical malpractice, products liability, maritime/Jones Act, railroad, chemical exposure), Auto Accident, Business Law (formation, contracts, IP, employment, M&A, litigation, compliance), and Succession/Estate Planning (wills, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, probate). It is led by three partners — Brian L. Glorioso (managing partner), Richard A. Tonry II, and Raymond J. Brinson — and one associate attorney (Andrew Dysart). The partners collectively hold admissions in all Louisiana state courts, federal district courts, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the U.S. Supreme Court, with pro hac vice admissions in Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida; the firm's litigation record includes arguing a precedent-setting generic-drug failure-to-warn case (PLIVA v. Demahy) before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2011. The firm also maintains an adjacent affiliate, Patriot Title, LLC, founded in 2003 by Raymond J. Brinson, which provides real estate closing services throughout Louisiana and shares staffing with the law firm.

The firm serves two principal segments: individual clients in need of criminal defense, personal injury, auto accident, or estate planning representation, and business/commercial clients ranging from small and local corporations to national and international corporations needing business law and litigation support. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the firm offers a free initial consultation as a top-of-funnel acquisition mechanism and bills through hourly fees for most matters, contingency fees on personal injury claims, and engagement-specific arrangements for complex litigation including federal appellate and Supreme Court work. Distribution is direct — in-person consultations at the Slidell and Mandeville offices plus phone intake at (985) 643-7007 — supplemented by a firm website (nolatriallawyers.com), a Facebook page, and earned-media coverage of high-profile cases in The Times-Picayune/NOLA.com and TheLensNOLA.com. Geographically, the firm is anchored in Saint Tammany Parish but represents clients in matters throughout Louisiana.

Revenue mechanics are a mix of professional-services fee streams: traditional hourly billing across criminal defense, business, and estate matters; contingency fees on personal injury claims; and complex litigation fees for federal and Supreme Court matters. The firm has no disclosed institutional investors, no parent company, and no subsidiaries, and reports 1–10 employees. Notable recognition includes a "Best Lawyers" listing in 2020 and the community-voted "Northshore's Best" designation; in 2024, managing partner Brian L. Glorioso was elected Louisiana State Representative for District 90, introducing public-office tenure alongside his private practice role.
