Oestreicher garners commendations & service awards from NOPD
During his years of service as a reserve officer in the New Orleans Police Department, attorney David Oestreicher encountered many scenarios. He says his service in the NOPD actually helped him to become a better lawyer — one more attuned to myriad perspectives presented in any given case, rather than as someone who might view things simply in black and white.
During his time on the force, he earned many commendations for his service. He was involved in numerous arrests, felony arrests, and apprehension of criminal suspects.
