About William R. "Randy" Long

William R. "Randy" Long, attorney at law, began the practice of law in 1987. "Helping people and making a positive difference in their lives" are our goals. "We try to create a warm and friendly environment to put our clients at ease. We treat you like a member of the family."

Looking to the future. Long believes that, in the legal field, the trend will be toward smaller law firms and attorneys being more specialized. He is a member of the Bossier Bar Association, Shreveport Bar Association, Louisiana State Bar Association, the Louisiana Association for Justice and the America Association for Justice. Long's work ethic, character and integrity can be attributed to his parents as role models.

Martial arts is one of my interests and hobbies. I received my black belts in Tae Kwon Do in May, 2007 and in Shorin-Ryu in June, 2007. I currently train and co-instruct in Shorin-Ryu Matsukan Kobujutsu.

Being a north Louisiana native, I enjoy outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, skiing, and of course, LSU football. In addition, I enjoy spending time with my wife of 21 years, Deanna, and our twins, Darbi and Hunter.

The SS Disability process is so frustrating and confusing...Mr. Long explained how the whole thing was going to go down before we even started. There is no way i’d have been able to do it on my own. I 100% recommend him and his team for disability help.

After being denied disability benefits, I reached out to a friend who recommended Mr. Long. I met with Mr. Long for a consultation and made sure to bring all of my documentation and correspondence with the Social Security Offices, thus far. After speaking with Mr. Long I was reassured that we would ultimately win my case. He made sure I understood the timeline the government would take and the process of a second denial likely occurring, which would then result in a judgement by a Judge in Court. There were no surprises along the way and he was in contact often. I was reassured from the beginning that I was in excellent hands. His office staff and paralegal were knowledgeable, as well. I couldn't have been in more capable hands. I would highly recommend Mr. Long for help with disability benefits. I'm so thankful for that initial recommendation. Thank you for your services!!

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
