The Louisiana State Bar Association has launched a Disaster Response Website serving as a single source for information on court closings, announcements, emergency contact information, and assistance resources for members affected by disasters.
The site also highlights SOLACE (Support of Lawyers/Legal Personnel – All Concern Encouraged), a program coordinated through the Louisiana State Bar Association and Louisiana Bar Foundation that provides meaningful and compassionate support to judges, lawyers, court personnel, and their families experiencing sudden catastrophic loss. Members receive one to two emails monthly and may opt out at any time. The program does not solicit cash donations or operate as an employment service.
The site also features the LSBA Disaster Planning Handbook, providing practical guidance on emergency response, recovery procedures, and business continuity planning for legal professionals.
