Laurie Wasserman

Laurie handled my divorce and I could not have had a better experience. Divorce is difficult enough and the last thing you need is added stress from an attorney that is not doing their job correctly. She guided me through all of the steps seamlessly and communication was clear and responsive. Additio...nally, her assistant attorneys and staff are excellent and extremely professional. And, all of this at a very reasonable rate! I would recommend Laurie's practice to anyone that needs a family law attorney.

We contacted Laurie for a last minute, next day need. She listened to us, said she could help, and was with us in court the next day! Not only was she there and prepared for the emergency custody trial, she was phenomenal! This was a really scary situation and we weren’t sure how it would turn out. L...aurie was honest with us about the all possibilities but assured us that everything would work out in the end (based on our situation and surrounding circumstances, she had a very good idea where things would go). She was able to get our kids back home with their mom, arranged a temporary custody agreement, and is helping us set up a permanent agreement. We felt confident in Laurie’s ability to handle our case and, even though it was a traumatic experience, we are grateful to have had Laurie and her team on our side.

I've worked with Laurie quite a bit over the past couple of years as she helped me navigate a long custody challenge. Even when things have been really hard, I'm always confident knowing she has my back. She is well connected and respected throughout Baltimore County and is so knowledgable about fami...ly law. She brings a unique mix of fearlessness, ferocity and empathy to her practice. She's always strong and decisive, but listens with true compassion. I recommend her without reservation to any family navigating challenging legal matters that wants to protect their children's best interest.

During the consultation Laurie walked me through option for my situation, next steps, there was no pressure to hire her- she just gave me all the information to decide if I was ready to proceed with divorce. After hiring Laurie, she worked through a lot of tumultuous issues including custody options ...for kids (alcoholic abuse involved) and division of premarital assets. I wanted to get divorced ASAP, she worked with my husbands lawyer to advocate for mediation. She thoroughly reviewed all documents and our settlement agreement and ensured I understood all aspects of the agreement. Laurie was always available to discuss updates to my case. Start to finish- I was divorced in 6 months thanks to Laurie’s guidance and help.

I did my research and Laurie's qualifications, awards, and word of mouth reputation were stellar. I hired Laurie for a difficult family situation involving a step-parent adoption and over stepping in-laws that were constantly dragging our family to court to seek out forced visitation. Laurie knows ...the law inside and out and is one of the sharpest legal minds in Maryland. Laurie was straight with me and my husband and went to bat for us. She truly cared about our case. You go to Laurie when you need someone you can trust to be efficient and effective, and when you want more than just your average attorney.
