Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Laura Deskin is an extremely bright, knowledgeable and tenacious lawyer. Mrs. Deskin specializes in appellate and post conviction matters but is equally effective in the court room litigating pretrial issues. I have worked on several matters with Mrs. Deskin and have found her to be thorough, organized, diligent and keen at understanding and identifying the material issues. I would highly recommend Mrs. Deskin and look forward to a continued professional relationship with her."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Laura Deskin is a true advocate for her clients. She is a very knowledgeable and talented criminal attorney who will work passionately and tirelessly on each case and is committed to achieving the very best outcome for her clients. Most importantly, she never forgets that each client is a real person, not just a case number, and that makes all the difference when you are looking for someone to really listen to you, keep you informed, and ultimately help successfully guide you through the criminal legal system in order to restore and/or protect your freedom, rights, and reputation. If I ever need to recommend a criminal attorney for a client or a friend, she is the one I turn to because I know she has the compassion and dedication that every client wants and the integrity and experience every client needs to succeed with their case."

"Laura is my "go-to" attorney when I need expertise in the field of criminal law. As an immigration attorney, I am often confronted with criminal law issues, and over the years Laura has provided me with excellent advice. Whether it be a procedural or a substantive issue, being able to consult with Laura has been invaluable. I also know that Laura is a caring attorney who pays attention to details. She is an attorney that you most definitely want on your side."

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.
