About Laura
Biography
I am deeply committed to helping people who are facing the hardest time of thier lives.
I am a details oriented and hands on person which means that you have my complete attention to the facts of your specific case.
I was brought up the fifth of six children by my parents who instilled in us to live by the "Golden Rule," doing to others what we would wish them to do for us. We are a big irish catholic family who believe in contributing to the community and being kind to all living beings.
I like to play tennis, socialize and swim when I am not busy defending someone who has been charged with a crime. I also love hanging out with my kids and dogs.
