About Emily C.
Emily C. Borgen earned her law degree from Duke University School of Law in 2011 after completing a bachelor’s degree at New York University in 2007. She entered legal study at a time when federal litigation and complex civil practice were becoming more prominent on many dockets. The academic record places her among a generation of lawyers who came of age professionally during a period of shifting procedural rules and expanding federal caseloads.
Her professional record shows involvement in both state and federal practice. She is licensed in Louisiana and New York, and is admitted to practice in the Eastern and Western Districts of Louisiana as well as before the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Records indicate membership in the Louisiana State Bar Association beginning in 2014, and she also maintains memberships in the American Bar Association and the Lafayette Bar Association.
By 2023 she was listed as a lawyer at Broussard, David & Moroux. That listing places her in a firm environment that handles a range of civil matters. She is also a current member of the American Inn of Court of Acadiana, a group that emphasizes ethical practice and courtroom skills among local lawyers and judges.
Borgen’s courtroom admissions point to regular handling of matters that require appearances in both state and federal venues. She has the credentials to practice in district courts across Louisiana and to present appeals to the Fifth Circuit. That combination suggests work that moves between trial-level advocacy and appellate procedure, though public records do not enumerate specific cases or practice areas.
Colleagues and professional affiliations show steady engagement with local legal institutions. Her continued participation in the Lafayette Bar Association and the Acadiana Inn of Court reflects ongoing ties to the legal community where she works. Her membership in the American Bar Association indicates participation in national professional networks as well.
She maintains an active role at Broussard, David & Moroux as listed in firm records from 2023. The background in federal admissions and dual-state licensure supports a practice that regularly touches both state and federal law. Her current work concentrates on civil litigation in state and federal courts.
