A Louisiana-trained litigator with nearly 30 years of experience, James Peltier has built his career around fighting hard for every client, every time.
He earned his Juris Doctorate cum laude from Southern University Law Center in 1995 before opening his own practice the following year.
In 1998, he brought that courtroom experience and aggressive advocacy style to Dudley DeBosier, where he has spent the last 25+ years fighting for clients’ rights to compensation.
Over the course of his career, James has:
- Built deep expertise across both civil and criminal litigation, trying cases alongside prominent Louisiana state representatives
- Developed a reputation as one of Louisiana’s most tenacious personal injury litigators
At Orion, James serves on the National Advisory Board as the Dudley DeBosier representative, bringing nearly three decades of frontline litigation experience to the company’s growth and strategy.
Outside of work, James is a die-hard LSU fan. You’ll find him in Tiger Stadium, cheering on the Tigers with the same intensity he brings to the courtroom.
