Piltz, Williams, LaRosa & Company was
first organized in 1937, as a branch of the New Orleans firm of
Barton, Pilie’, Hughes & Jones. In 1962, on Barton, Pilie’, Hughes &
Jones' decision to merge with a national firm, acquisition of the
branch was offered to Gerald Piltz and A.C. Simms. A partnership was
formed on June 1, 1962, with the name of Piltz, Simms & Co. Upon A.C.
Simms' retirement on July 1, 1977, the partnership name was changed
and Piltz, Williams, LaRosa & Company was born. Our main office was
located on Lameuse Street in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Since Hurricane Katrina, we have established a temporary office on
Lemoyne Boulevard in the St. Martin community, with a total
staff of 26 professionals

2006, we purchased a lot in the Biloxi Commerce Park on Tommy Munro
