A wonderful legal experience. (Custody Modification)

It was a pleasure to work with Mrs Duran. From the beginning consult to the final order, Laura was attentive to our legal needs and served as an advocate in understanding our rights as parents. I highly recommend other fathers and veterans to consider Laura when reflecting on hiring legal counsel. Sh...e is attentive and knowledgeable in her field and is also very personable and uplifting throughout the length of the process.

Excellect representation

Laura did an excellent job with my child custody modification and child support case. She was easy to communicate with, listened, and got everything I asked for within reason. She gave great advice and coaching and truly did what was in the best interest of my case. I will hire her again in the futur...e if I need anything!

Great Lawyer

Laura Duran is a fantastic lawyer and great person. I live in Georgia so finding a lawyer in Texas was no easy task so finding Mrs. Duran was a blessing. I hired her to help me gain visitation rights to my son who lives in Texas. She didn't hesitate to take my case and was diligent in helping me gain... custody. She was very thorough in the orders which I truly made a difference. She always kept me informed and did everything in my best interest. I would recommend anyone to hire her, especially for family cases.

Laura Duran is a great lawyer. She is very knowledgeable, personable and respectful. She helped me with my family Will and she made the process easy and fast. I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends and family. She is awesome.

Family attorney

There are attorneys that specialize in different areas. Ms Duran has been our all around attorney but mainly family law for us. I believe every family should have an attorney they can trust. Not only has she saved us money by recommending cheaper options but most importantly she always works with us.... I have hired Ms Duran many times and will continue to use her. After all how many fathers actually win custody battles? I can name at least ONE!! Thank you Ms Duran my kids appreciate it :)

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.
