Posted by Steven Dutcher and Sarah Ells | August 20, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Amazing Lawyer, good guy

I contacted Dennis after having horrible representation at the beginning of my divorce. The first surprise was the immediate communication and dialogue Mr.. Laughlin instigated with me via emails, phone calls and texts. He is not just a brilliant lawyer, Dennis is a humanitarian who truely cares abou...t his clients. He is also not one of those rude, embarrassing lawyers who use theatrics to mask their inequities. Highly respected by local judges and his collegues in the field for both his respectful, genuine manner and high intelligence, gives his clients an edge in difficult legal situations. He is also well worth whatever he asks for his fee, which will be a lot less than you expect. Dennis is a great guy, he's smart and he enjoys working tirelessly for others. Not only do we have a lifelong lawyer, in Dennis we have a lifelong friend.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
