PHENOMENAL ATTORNEY

Laura is the best at what she does! She is thorough and meticulous with her work. I received updates often on my case, and she was always available to answer the many questions I had regarding my case. I'm so glad that she represented me. I highly recommend her!

Professional representation!

Laura handled the I-130 petition and consular processing for my husband's immigration case. She provided professional representation, prompt responses to our questions, and maintained a positive attitude throughout this process. It helped my husband and I remain calm and patient while being separat...ed by borders. I could not have done any of this on my own!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
