Review Laura Hooks

Pleased with Laura's help

Posted by

I am going through a separation/divorce. Laura patiently explained what I needed to know and took the time to find out what my needs and wants were going to be. She responded promptly when I had questions. I am pleased with the wording of the separation agreement that she drew up for me and she has helped give me confidence through this uncomfortable chapter.

I hired this attorney to handle my divorce, and found her to be sincere and down to earth. I felt that my wife's attorney was working to drive a wedge between us and make a agreement more difficult, but this attorney was able to bring about an agreement with her common sense approach and a easy demeanor.
