About Mallory E.
Mallory E. Gershen holds both a J.D. and a B.S. in political science from Tulane University. She practices law in Louisiana and works as an associate at Bland & Partners. Her academic background pairs legal training with a social science perspective, a combination that informs how she approaches problems and communicates with clients.
Gershen earned her law degree from Tulane University School of Law after completing undergraduate studies in political science at Tulane University. Those years established the basics of legal analysis, research, and writing. They also placed her in an environment where law and public affairs intersect, shaping her view of the role attorneys play in public and private disputes.
She joined Bland & Partners as an associate. In that role she assists more senior attorneys, conducts legal research, prepares briefs and other court filings, and contributes to case strategy. Her work there involves both written advocacy and client contact. Colleagues describe her as methodical in her preparation and attentive in client conversations.
Gershen’s experience since law school has been concentrated in the Louisiana legal community. She is admitted to practice in Louisiana and works on matters that arise under state law. Her training at Tulane and her early years at the firm have given her steady exposure to courtroom procedure and case management, as well as the transactional and advisory tasks that often accompany litigation work.
Her approach to a case is straightforward. She emphasizes clear communication, careful factual development, and thorough legal research. She aims to present options to clients in plain language so they can make informed decisions. In practice, that means detailed document work and regular client updates alongside whatever litigation or transactional steps a matter requires.
Outside of casework, Gershen pursued a course of study that reflected an interest in the connections between law and public policy. That background continues to shape her perspective as an attorney. She is currently an associate at Bland & Partners, practicing law in Louisiana and handling client representation and legal research.
