Protecting Your Reputation, Rights, and Freedom

Harassment charges can affect every aspect of your life — your career, your relationships, your reputation, and your future. Whether the accusation involves threats, repeated contact, online messages, or stalking, these cases can escalate quickly and carry serious consequences. A conviction may result in fines, probation, protective orders, or even jail time.

At Bloom Legal Network, we are a full-service Louisiana law firm equipped to defend harassment, stalking, and cyber-related allegations at every stage. When a case calls for additional specialization, we take the case ourselves and bring in trusted attorneys from our network — but we remain your legal team throughout the entire process, guiding strategy, managing communication, and protecting your interests from start to finish.

We represent clients across New Orleans, Metairie, Jefferson Parish, St. Charles Parish, St. Tammany Parish, and surrounding communities.

Types of Harassment Cases We Handle

Bloom Legal Network provides defense for a wide range of harassment-related charges, including:

  • General harassment or intimidation through communication or conduct
  • Stalking and repeated unwanted contact
  • Cyber harassment, online threats, or social media accusations
  • Harassment connected to domestic disputes or protective order issues
  • Workplace or public harassment accusations affecting employment or reputation

Harassment allegations are often highly interpretive. A skilled defense attorney can review the evidence, identify inaccuracies, and ensure that your actions are presented within the proper context.

The Consequences of a Harassment Conviction

Louisiana treats harassment and stalking charges seriously, especially when allegations involve repeated incidents or perceived threats. Depending on the situation, penalties may include:

  • Jail or prison time for aggravated situations
  • Significant fines and court fees
  • Probation and mandatory counseling
  • Protective orders limiting contact, communication, and travel
  • Loss of employment or professional damage
  • A permanent criminal record visible on background checks

Even before a conviction, allegations alone can negatively impact your personal and professional life. As your legal team, BLN handles your case with discretion and urgency to protect your name and your future.

How Bloom Legal Network Defends Harassment Charges

Harassment cases rely heavily on interpretation, intent, and context — which means a strong defense must be thorough and strategic. Bloom Legal Network attorneys use proven defense methods such as:

Challenging Evidence

Examining messages, emails, call logs, or social media records for clarity, accuracy, and missing context.

Disputing Intent

Demonstrating that communication was not meant to threaten, intimidate, or harass.

Questioning Credibility

Exposing inconsistencies, exaggerations, or ulterior motives behind the accusation.

Identifying Miscommunication

Showing that the situation resulted from misunderstanding rather than criminal intent.

Negotiating Alternatives

Pursuing diversion programs, reduced charges, or counseling options for first-time or low-level cases.

A skilled harassment defense lawyer can present the full story — not just the accuser’s interpretation — ensuring the court understands the reality of the situation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Harassment Defense

1. What should I do if someone files a harassment complaint against me?

If someone files a harassment complaint, the most important thing you can do is avoid any direct or indirect contact with the accuser, even if you believe there has been a misunderstanding. Do not try to explain, apologize, or resolve the situation on your own, and avoid discussing the case with friends, co-workers, or on social media, as anything you say can be used as evidence. Instead, contact Bloom Legal Network right away so we can evaluate the allegations, advise you on what to avoid, communicate with law enforcement or the court on your behalf, and begin gathering evidence that protects you from additional accusations or misinterpretations.

2. Can social media posts or text messages be used as evidence of harassment?

Yes. Text messages, emails, comments, and social media posts are frequently used as evidence in harassment cases, but they are also one of the most commonly misinterpreted forms of communication. Screenshots may be incomplete, messages may lack context, or the tone of a conversation may be misunderstood entirely. Bloom Legal Network carefully reviews the full sequence of communications, including timestamps and prior interactions, to show context, intent, and any mitigating factors that help prevent misleading or exaggerated claims from harming your case.

3. What happens if there’s a restraining order or protective order involved?

If a protective order is involved, you must follow it exactly as written, even if you believe it is unfair, inaccurate, or based on false information, because accidental or unintended contact can still lead to criminal charges. Bloom Legal Network can help you understand your restrictions, challenge the order if it was improperly issued, and represent you in related hearings so your rights are protected. If you are accused of violating the order, we act quickly to investigate what happened, gather proof of misunderstandings or accidental contact, and work to prevent additional penalties, jail time, or long-term consequences.
