Laura E Brooks

I retained Laura to assist with a complicated multi-state PFA and Custody Hearing. Laura is an excellent attorney who is very competent and compassionate. As with most Family Court matters the issues surrounding my case are/were sensitive and very emotional. While the custody matter is scheduled fo...r mid April, Laura worked with co-counsel in NY to successfully petition the NY Family Court to order the custody matter be heard in Delaware. Laura was also successful in arguing for the dismissal of a PFA filed in Delaware. I would highly recommend Laura as she is a thorough communicator, attentive listener and superior legal strategist. Laura is honest, responsive and after every interaction I am left feeling that Laura genuinely cares about me as a person and parent. Throughout what has felt like the "fight of my life", Laura has remained focused, positive and incredibly supportive. Having held several positions in the Family Court prior to being admitted to the Delaware Bar, Laura has develop lasting and mutually respectful relationships with seemingly everyone in Family Court. I highly recommend Laura!!!

Laura was recommended to me by a close friend when I was going through a divorce. My first meet with Laura I immediately felt comfortable and relaxed as she was very attentive to my story and all the details pertaining to my divorce. Throughout the entire process of the Divorce, Laura was always ...available to answer my questions and handled the entire process flawlessly. When we attended court throughout the process, Laura was not at all intimidated by anyone. She was clear, concise and made her points strong and delivered countless blows to the opposing parties by stating facts and details. At no point during the process did Laura lower herself to the opposing parties side. She stayed above par throughout the entire process and plays clean and fair, but certainly very stern in her beliefs and actions. When it was all over and finished, even though divorces tend to typically be stressful and prolonged, I had zero stress. Laura is not only an excellent attorney, she takes the time to listen and understand the whole situation and all the facts. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone that needs an attorney for Divorce.

I hired Laura to help with a bitter divorce and a nearly year-long custody battle after a 20 year marriage. It was one of the most distressing times in my life and I truly felt that not only did I have a knowledgable lawyer but someone who truly was a ally and an advocate for my teenaged children. Sh...e genuinely cared about us and our future.

If you don't have the time or money to waste than I highly recommend not picking Laura Brooks as your legal counsel. She was recommended as being the best. Maybe she was years ago but not now. She don't like to meet in person or talk on the phone. She don't keep you updated on your case unless you ...reach out to her. She file motions late which gives the judge reason to deny them. She's too impersonal instead of being professional when needing to be. She with drew from my case a day before trial due to her "not liking to be questioned about not informing me in a timely manner." She's being paid to work for me and my children best interest. This left me with a lot of adding on stress, time and money wasted, disappointment and confusion. She showed up to trial to only make sure the judge granted her motion to withdrawal. She left my file, which I notice some of my exhibits that was suppose to be presented during trial was missing. Also she charge me for coming to court the day of trial and a couple of other things that she shouldn't gotten paid for. She's a joke! Laura was my first family court lawyer and she was the worst pick ever!! I know what to look for in my next legal counsel and it won't be someone like Laura Brooks.

I was a broken man after I found out about my wife cheating and stealing my identity. I was homeless my credit was shot and to top it all off my children were taken from me. Hiring Laura was the best decision in my life, I moved in with my sister and Laura fought right away on getting my children bac...k into their fathers arms. Everytime my ex filed a new motion ( which was all the time), Laura fought back with true class. I can honestly say I don’t want to imagine where I’d be if I never walked into her office. She literally saved me, and for that I will always be in her debt.
