The right lawyer!

Andy has helped me over the years with my family law case - which consisted of custody, support and some criminal activity as well. He was unbelievably attentive and calming. He knew the law and how it pertained to every aspect of my case - I never doubted his advice. He is a strong lawyer who you... should have in your corner!

Detailed and Personalized Approach

I first called Mr. Laird in tears when I found out that my Husband was leaving me for a mutual friend. He was very calming and compassionate as well as very agressive and results focused in all of his correspondence and court appearences. He took a detailed personal approach to my matter and ke...pt me informed as to what to expect throughout the entire process. Custody was a large part of my matter and he handled it without fault. He did an amazing job in the Courtroom and commanded respect from my Husbands attorney as well as my Husband and his witnesses. Also important to me was the fact that Tom and Bob were also available to answer any questions if Mr. Laird was unavilable.

competent, top-notch, effective, and courteous attorney

Top notch, highly recommended in every way.. I rarely take the time to write reviews unless something or someone REALLY stands out as exemplary. Andrew is one such attorney. He handled my case, a very complicated criminal case with many exhibits, twists, turns, etc with absolutely astonishing capabil...ities. The courts attoney said "you have a very good lawyer" after reviewing all my paperwork. That speaks volumes. I recommend Andrew's practice as highly as possible to anyone who wants a competent, top-notch, effective, and courteous attorney. I went into this whole process being slightly ashamed, afraid, and worried to death. He answered my multitude of questions and assured me when I needed it the most.

Big Help with Auto Accident

King Laird P.C., was a big help in dealing with an auto accident. I would highly recommend them if you ever have any questions or dealing with accidents. This was the first time that I have ever needed a lawyer and I would call them again. The office staff who I communicated with was top notch. They ...were able to answer all of my questions and responded quickly to all of my communications.

Professional, Supportive and Realistic

For the first time in my life, I was compelled to hire an attorney for a motor vehicle accident I had. Why? Because my OWN insurance company, who has enjoyed years of premiums, was uncooperative with my medical bills. And, no matter how I tried, I never heard from the other parties' insurance adjus...ter! Because the other party was 100% at fault, and I had been a workers comp. claims adjuster for nearly 20 years, I really thought I could handle things myself, not so. Andrew's law firm is professional, supportive and realistic. I am very pleased to have entrusted my case to them! Oh, no complaints about my settlement either! I highly recommend Andrew and his firm! Thanks so much Andrew and the entire staff of King Laird P.C. for all of your help!!
