Laura K Behre

The buck stops at the very top with Associate General Counsel Laura K Behre South Carolina Bar 12213 and District of Columbia Bar 457813. She is entirely responsible for the deep professional failures internal rot and toxic culture that define Motley Rice LLC. If you are looking for an attorney who u...pholds fiduciary duties honesty and professional integrity look elsewhere because she operates with a level of industrialized negligence and institutional apathy that is truly devastating. Laura K Behre is responsible for a staff of ignorant subservient attorneys who are entirely beholden to her. Even if you come to this firm as a formal referral from other legal counsel while navigating a devastating life-threatening issue regarding the estate of a deceased parent she will ensure you are treated as completely expendable. She will go out of her way to dispose of you simply to cover her own back. Laura K Behre delegates everything to her subordinate shields and completely removes herself from accountability. She will never pick up a phone she will never respond to an email and she will never acknowledge your existence. Instead she treats grieving clients as less than numbers on a spreadsheet while her team does the dirty work. The toxic structure she oversees is carried out by her subordinate attorneys including Kimberly Barone Baden South Carolina Bar 70440 and California Bar 207731 Fidelma Fitzpatrick Rhode Island Bar 4655 and New York Bar 2581692 and Sam Strother South Carolina Bar 105260. Under her leadership this firm completely refuses to take accountability for staff incompetence or a lack of empathy. When internal failings are exposed Laura K Behre and her team engage in a calculated retaliatory management effort to get rid of the client rather than addressing the misconduct. I encountered a deeply compromising lack of transparency including deception and record manipulation. They actively claimed cases did not meet criteria even when active settlement offers existed and falsely suggested federal deadlines had passed for claims already registered with the Navy Office of the Judge Advocate General Complex Litigation Department. Once Laura K Behre and her team realize an internal error has been made they would rather extinguish your legal rights than act with professional integrity. Do not ever trust her or this firm with your case.
