Earlean A. Laster

Attorney Laster represented me in a criminal matter, where I was charged with a Felony, based on her experience and relationship with the District Attorney she was able to present positive information about my character and the District Attorney agreed to drop my case down to a ticket. I spoke to se...veral attorneys who told me I did not have a chance. I honestly believe if I did not hire Attorney Laster I would be a convicted felon right now. If you are in serious trouble hire Attorney Laster!!!!

We had no idea what we were up against when our only son was taking into custody. Our initial thought was to practice tough love but through prayer and spiritual advice we were reminded that he was a young black man 20 years old that the system will eat him up and throw the keys away. Found this to... be so true as we sat in a courtroom where the Asst. DA promised that she will see to him getting 80 years ` I almost passed out… Left the courtroom in disbelief feeling Helpless. Late evening my husband reached out to Atty Earlean Laster who answered her office phone. After speaking briefly, she told my husband that she was going to leave her office and go over to the jail to meet with our son and call us back after the visit that day. She called back to say that she believed our son’s story and would represent him. She was Tough and Composed Under Fire, Compassionate, Professional and Relentless. She didn't let up and my Helplessness quickly disappeared with her belief and determination. Attorney Laster was very understanding and empathetic to our family's feelings and emotions...this was a very trying and emotional time for all of us... We are so appreciative of her getting our son back home to us. He did not go to prison and received a sentence of three years’ probation. We couldn’t have been blessed with a better defense lawyer… She is an exceptional Attorney, very well prepared, armed with facts and references to help defend her client. Would we recommend Attorney Earlean Laster to anyone needing a defense attorney? Without a doubt, Absolutely!!! We thank God for her Heart and will always pray for her continued health, success, growth and family. Attorney Laster from the bottom of our Heart, THANK YOU:)

Attorney Earlean Laster is a true professional who provides years of knowledge and contained my support issues before the judge uncaring tried to throw the book at me. She was difficult to get in touch with at times but always may an effort to contact me back... A good Attorney isn't sitting by the p...hone all day, I get it. Thanks Attorney Laster for saving a portion of my A**.

Attorney Laster was a God send, when my child's father called child protective services, as a precursor to him filing for shared placement. He had a new girlfriend who encouraged him to throw everything but the kitchen sink at me, so that he could paint me as an unfit mother. Atty. Laster was impress...ive when dealing with CPS, the agent dropped the case after 2 days of her involvement. I did retain Atty. Laster's firm for the child placement/ support dispute. Shortly after signing the retainer I was provided with Atty. Rochelle Benton. Although she was junior counsel, she provided adequate representation. Conversely, it would have been nice to pay the junior counsel hourly rate, meaning half. It did come as a surprise when Attorney Benton required additional retainers as well as a high hourly fee to represent me when my child's father threw in a motion for a restraining order. This guy decided to pull every shenanigan he could. I paid Atty. Laster's firm on time, however I couldn't pay additional retainers for all the new crap he dreamed up. If you are looking for al la carte representation, I think this is a wonderful firm to work with. However if you are dealing with someone as relentless as my child's father, you may want to find yourself other aggressive and thorough representation for the long haul. All in all, Atty. Laster has a plethora of confidence and experience, so if you retain her please make sure she will be the one representing you. She is very skillful and knows just what to say for the other party to comply. I did use her firm for other services and was impressed.

I hired Attorney Laster and I can not express the amount of gratitude my family has for her. After going through a tough time in my life and receiving a OWI, my daughter's “father” (whom was never involved in her life & owes 9yrs of back child support) Petitioned the Court for Physical Placement of ...my daughter, and received placement by the court commissioner at a temporary hearing (which I was never served with any notice). As you can imagine, I was absolutely devastated!! For fourteen months my husband and I tried ourselves to get the ruling over turned and were not successful . We had a hearing scheduled for August 29, 2012 and a friend recommended representation from Attorney Laster. After hearing all great thing she had to say, we figured it was worth a shot. We retained Attorney Laster on August 28, 2012, and the next day at our hearing the Judge ruled in our favor!!! Since one week from that date my daughter has been home for good!!! I completely agree with the “Best Attorney Ever” review!!! She was aggressive and just what our family needed for the court to look past my “record” and focus on the best intrest of our child. I would recommend Attorney Laster again and again; she was truly a life saver!!!
