Madderra’s practice includes personal injury, medical malpractice, real estate, contract disputes, complex litigation, and environmental law. She has worked with several New Orleans firms and has substantial experience managing discovery processes and addressing the procedural and factual issues that arise in large or document-intensive disputes.

Madderra earned her J.D. from Louisiana State University’s Paul M. Hebert Law School in 2014. While in law school, she served as a Student Ambassador and as an officer of LSU’s Student Animal Legal Defense Fund chapter.

Before joining Brener & Kraus, Madderra worked on complex litigation matters in the New Orleans area with a strong focus on discovery management. Her current practice spans injury, professional liability, property, contract, and environmental disputes, requiring review of records, coordination with clients and experts, evaluation of damages, and careful attention to procedural deadlines. That background is particularly useful in cases where the volume and organization of evidence can shape litigation strategy.

Madderra brings discovery experience and broad civil-litigation exposure to disputes involving individuals, professionals, property, and contracts.
