Both of the partners of Nielsen & Treas, LLC are Eagle Scouts.A Tufts University study conducted by researcher Richard Lerner documented multiple benefits for youth who belong to the Boy Scouts. The study compared adolescents who participated in scouting to those who were involved in other activities. In addition to finding an increase in religious reverence among scouts who belonged to church-sponsored troops, the analysis also revealed positive changes in character attributes such as obedience, kindness, trustworthiness, and hopefulness.Furthermore, researchers looked at how youths embrace prosocial priorities over non-prosocial ones. According to their investigations, adolescents who engaged in scouting place more value on helping others and choosing to do the right thing over being smart or the best at playing sports.The Tufts study results were discussed at the 2015 Boy Scout Top Hands conference, and information from the presentation continues to be shared today.

Law firm Nielsen & Treas, LLC, in Metairie, Louisiana, serves clients throughout the Gulf Coast region. With a focus on constitutional, regulatory, and insurance issues, Nielsen & Treas, LLC, represents clients in insurance law cases. Insurance law refers to the laws governing the insurance business in the United States. The business of insurance is essentially a contract in which one party agrees to pay a sum of money regularly to another party for coverage from certain losses. Before 1944, the insurance business was not thought to be “commerce” and therefore was not subject to federal regulation. This changed after the landmark case of United States v. South-Eastern Underwriters Association, in which the US Supreme Court ruled that Congress could regulate interstate insurance transactions. Afterward, Congress enacted the McCarran-Ferguson Act, which allowed states to make laws that regulate their insurance businesses.
