About Laura
Biography
For 23 years, I have been a fierce advocate for those I represent. First it was children when I spent five years working for the Department of Children of Families in Florida. Next it was victims of crime as an Assistant District Attorney for 16 years. Now I bring that advocacy and 21 years of courtroom skills to representing those who are going through some of the toughest experiences of their lives.
I am a Valodsta native. I am married to Brian and we have 5 children between us. As someone who has been through divorce and child custody actions personally, I bring a compassion and perspective that not many other attorneys can. Because of my experience with the victims of child abuse, I am also particularly conscious of the effects of divorce and custody fights on children.
I handle crimnal defense, divorces, child custody, adoptions, personal injury and wrongful death. Let my court room skills work for you.

No charges
I was arrested with a DUI, and Mrs. Wood worked her magic and got the case dropped. You can't get any better than that!
