Throughout his legal career Brandon has ascended to leadership roles at every level of his service, and has been responsible for complex cases, personnel, and multi-million dollar budgets.

As the United States Attorney, Brandon was responsible for all federal legal matters in his district in which the United States was a party.

This critical work included protecting Americans from terrorism and threats to National Security as well as fighting violent crime, financial crimes, protecting children and the elderly, combatting health care and disaster fraud, vigorously combatting organized drug trafficking networks, and much, much more. Brandon’s role as U.S. Attorney also included important work in the civil division where he was responsible for representing the United States in a variety of legal matters representing both plaintiffs and defendants. This included employing the civil legal process to protect the interests of the United States by aggressively fighting healthcare fraud, pursuing the forfeiture of criminal proceeds, and collecting millions of dollars in criminal and civil judgments for victims of crime. 

A Louisiana native, Brandon earned a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, cum laude, from Southeastern Louisiana University in 1998. He is also a graduate of the Paul M. Hebert Law Center at Louisiana State University where he earned a Bachelor of Civil Law and Juris Doctor in 2003.
