About Laura

I am a third generation trial attorney. Both my dad and grandfather were trial attorneys.  I went to Baylor University and was a premedical student.  I graduated with a degree in biology, but since the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree, I went to law school.

I have represented people who have been injured in serious trucking and automobile accidents, babies who have been injured as a result of medical errors at birth, and people who have been injured as a result of medical malpractice and other types of serious accidents.

I am an adjunct professor at Baylor Law School teaching Personal Injury Trial Law.  I have given talks across the country to labor and delivery nurses about the types of medical mistakes that I have seen in my birth injury cases to help educate these nurses on steps that they can take to prevent injuries to babies in the future.

      Review Laura Brown

      I would highly recommend Laura and Dale!

      Posted by

      Laura Brown and Dale Williams are very genuine people. When I first met them, I felt relieved because I knew these are good and honest people who want to help. Laura came and visited me in the hospital and I could tell she cared about me like I was family. I was very pleased with how Laura and Dale represented me throughout the mediation. She remembered everything about my case and she was invested in me and my well being. Her whole team is awesome! I also appreciated how she patiently explained the legal and medical terms so that we understood what was going on. I would highly recommend Laura and Dale if you need help with an injury.

      Amazing is all i can say! Laura is true to her client, and works her heart out for the best results. She got a $10.3 million dollar verdict in our case because of sheer determination. I have been a lawyer for 20 years and she might be the best i have ever seen.

      I endorse this lawyer. I have known Laura since she was a rising star in the medical malpractice field. She is no longer a rising star - she has fully arrived as one of the best plaintiff's personal injury attorneys in the area.
