Very friendly

I needed help with old traffic tickets. I saw her reviews online, and knew that I wanted to have her on my side. The reviews were right, she was very friendly and did a great job getting those old tickets knocked down and resolved.

Mr. & Mrs.

I would highly recommend attorney at law Laura Baker. Mrs. Baker was very swift, efficient and precise with the handling of a traffic citation for our son, who was traveling threw NC from another state for college. Mrs. Baker resolved the citation effectively, and retaining her serv...ices was very affordable. Everything thing she told us she would do she did!

Affordable, yet worth so much more.

In Short: Laura Baker is an excellent attorney, and I don't think that you'll regret hiring her. She helped me get one case dismissed, and handled all communication between the law and me. She also prepared my family for what court was like, before we would've had to go. If you need an attorney w...ho will FIGHT for you, definitely consider her. The Story: First and foremost, (before she became my attorney), She answered any questions I had about how my situation with limited knowledge to the situation. As it all began with DSS. When approached by detectives, I reached out to her again. She suggested I keep my mouth shut (from what I've learned, this is wise. As ANYTHING can be used to incriminate you. Even if not guilty) I met with her, we talked about the situation, and she said she would handle my Pre-Litigation. (Prior to getting "Charged") Immediately. And that she did! She reached out to the DA, Detective on the case, and more. Relaying important information between them and myself. As part of my DSS case I was to be submitted to a list called the RIL (not good) and in order to fight it, you have to go to court. She spoke to the DSS Attorney's, and prepared me and my family for court. We met a few times to discuss the upcoming hearing, prepare evidence, etc... And the day before, we had a "mock" hearing. So you're familiar with what is about to happen, and what you need to expect. Turns out the day of, she worked her magic so well, we didn't even need to go to court. They dismissed it before the hearing that day. She also made sure to have it marked in my DSS records that the RIL was dismissed and more. I would say the only setback I had was, communication was in short supply. However, between Covid and multiple cases. She's incredibly busy and that needs to be understood. She was 100% prepared for every aspect of this case and I'm proud to have chosen her as an attorney.

Superb Customer Care

All I did was inform Attorney Baker of my legal woes, paid my retainer and, before my court date, Attorney Baker successfully resolved the matter. Correspondence with Attorney Baker was prompt, informative and reassuring. She always let me know what I was facing but also reassured that she’d try her... best.

Posted by Gina | July 01, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Miracle Worker

A few months ago I received a speeding ticket and a reckless driving citation in Carrabus County. The exact speed was 91/65mph speeding and careless & reckless citation was also added. I had NEVER received a speeding ticket before so I was a bit anxious. When I called her she was so thorough an...d calm. Unlike other firms she asked about what happened, where I was going, what the officer said and did. She didn’t just leave it at a ticket. She wanted the whole picture. After explaining the situation she let me know what she could do and what she would push for. Mrs. Baker was able to get my speeding ticket for 91mph in a 65mph zone charge amended to an 'improper equipment’ citation and the careless and reckless charge dismissed!!!!!!! She is a rockstar that knows what she’s doing and has the connections necessary to handle serious matters outside of court.
