Refreshing Legal Guidance!

Laura displays a compassion and thoughtfulness not often prioritized by attorneys. When we met, I truly felt her primary focus was on my family's well-being and legal safety - not about accruing hours or racking up costs. Her belief in providing affordable, family-centric legal care was refreshing. M...y family worked with her to develop a Will, POAs, and other documents, and it was evident her focus was not just on "checking the box" but discovering what was actually important to our family and how we operated and related to one another. Laura would be a quick first choice should I need legal guidance again

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.
