About Jeremy Austin
Jeremy Austin Bazile earned a B.A. in sociology from Louisiana State University in 2009 and a J.D. from Southern University Law Center in 2012. He finished law school after several years of study in Baton Rouge and left with classroom and clinic experience that would shape his early legal work. Those academic credentials anchor a career that moved quickly from student practice to courtroom work.
He began legal practice in the judiciary. In 2012 he served as a law clerk to the Honorable George C. Metoyer, Jr., of the 9th Judicial District Court. At the same time he worked as a student lawyer in the Southern University clinic, gaining hands-on exposure to litigation tasks and courtroom procedure. That mix of clerkship and clinic offered a close view of trial practice and case management early on.
After the clerkship Bazile moved into in-house practice. In 2014 he worked as a staff lawyer for HUB Enterprises, Inc., handling legal matters for a private employer. He then branched into plaintiff-side practice. In 2016 he joined The Glenn Armentor Law Corporation as a personal injury lawyer. That role involved client intake, negotiation and litigation on behalf of injured individuals. In 2021 he was listed as a complex litigation lawyer with Thomas J. Henry Injury Lawyers, a position indicating continued involvement in contested civil matters.
Bazile is admitted to practice in Louisiana and has federal admissions that include the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and the Federal Circuit. He holds Westlaw certifications in case law and statutory research from Thomson Reuters and is a Notary Public certified by the Louisiana Secretary of State. Those credentials underscore his comfort with research and procedural tools used in litigation.
Outside the office he has been active in regional legal and civic organizations. He has served on the board and on the finance and audit committee of South Louisiana Community College since 2017, and he is on the college's Criminal Justice Department Advisory Committee. He is an associate member of the John M. Duhe, Jr. American Inn of Court and has participated in local bar association committees and young leader groups in Acadiana. Memberships include the Louisiana State Bar Association, Lafayette Parish Bar Association, Federal Bar Association (Lafayette-Acadiana Chapter) and the Louisiana Association for Justice.
His career shows a steady progression from court clerkship to in-house work to plaintiff litigation and complex civil matters. He continues to practice in Louisiana and in federal appellate courts, handling civil litigation and personal injury matters as his current practice focus.
