Laura D Johnson

When first meeting Laura, I was just starting the process of thinking of filing for divorce. She was recommended to me by someone else in her office. I went to her, trusting their opinion. Leaving the consultation, I had confidence in her. She was professional and kind. She told me that I would get e...verything I was asking for and there was no way my soon to be ex husband would walk away with what he was asking for. I felt this way right up until we were sitting across the table from the mediator. Laura did NOT have my best interest at heart like I had previously thought. I feel like she told me the things I had wanted to hear during the times I had spent with her. She did not fight for me or my child. During mediation, I found out she had previously been an advocate for Father's Rights, and I, as a mother, hired her to help me fight for my child. She, along with the mediator, told me that the deal on the table was the best I was going to get. And if I went in front of a judge, I wouldn't get even close to what was being proposed that day. At the end of mediation, after I had to draw up my own parent time schedule and the "spousal support" agreement, she had the nerve to ask if I was happy with the outcome. I, obviously, wasn't and she told me she hoped I didn't report her to the bar! I was blown away at how she misrepresented herself. It was partly my fault for not doing my research and hiring the first attorney I met with, but where she came recommended, I trusted the firm. I regret that now. I have since hired a different attorney and consulted with him. He has told me time and time again that I would have had a better outcome had I gone in front of a judge or a commissioner. I will not recommend Laura Johnson to anyone. She did not fight for me.
