He set up practice in Evansville, Indiana. La Follette served as a Republican in the Indiana House of Representatives from 1927 to 1929, and in the United States House of Representatives from 1943 to 1947.[2] In 1947 he served as deputy chief of counsel for war crimes in the Nuremberg Trials.{{citation needed|date = February 2019}} La Follette then served as the Director of Americans for Democratic Action from 1949 to 1950, and served on the Subversive Activities Control Board from 1950 to 1951.{{citation needed|date = February 2019}}
