This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Attorney for me for two decades and never failed me

Laurel is the type of attorney that will stand by you and listen to you and collaborate with you and communicate with you and every case that we worked on in family law we won. She is extremely honest and a genuine nice person just to top it off, but also extremely aggressive when need be, and I feel... that she was successful Not only in the good turnout, but she collaborated so it wasn’t stressful for me. She is a calming influence at least on me and combined with nonstop hard work she’d even come on Saturdays to work for me and take calls or text anytime she was extremely organized and the judges really liked her as well as her clients.

Encouraged a long drawn out battle over a simple visitation case!

Laurel led me to believe she could do things that she knew she couldn't. Left my family bankrupt and had my house foreclose on me due to paying her bills.

Let me down...I don't trust her. Sneaky person...thumbs DOWN

Laurel lead me to believe she was going to help me and at the very last moment she bailed on me....caused me great harm and distress....
