Professional, Knowledgeable, Experienced

Every aspect of my case Laura has in-debt experienced,. She has a vast amount of knowledge and knew exactly what course of action to take. There are no such thing as "legal road-blocks" or "curve balls" because Laura has the solutions. When you have someone as professional, thorough, organized and as... well versed as she is on your side you know you have the best representation possible. Legal situations are frustrating, stressful and difficult to go through but if you have awesome representation your worries and concerns are non existence. Some of Laura/s best traits are: She was very Respectful towards me. and made me feel comfortable during the entire process. She is Trustworthy, fair and cost-conscious. She truly cares about her clients and THEIR outcome. She is experienced, knowledgeable and astute. She is attentative and reassuring. She plans ahead by devising and implementing long range strategy for your case success. She has contingency plans. She promptly returns calls and emails. Something you do NOT see often, She was highly recommended by several other attorneys! She is zealous in every aspect of her work. I have a huge about of consideration and respect for Laura and her legal expertise and abilities. I would HIGHLY recommend Laura for Family law and Personal injury Law matters.

Passionate About Her Job

My name is Cynthia. I am a realtor with CPS in Santa Rosa. I have known Laura Dunst for the past two years and have come to value her friendship. She is an honest, caring and giving woman who is driven. Laura has a strong desire to help others and demonstrates it consistently in her actions. I have ...consistently observed her to be a person of character and integrity. She always gets the job done.

Takes care of business

I was extremely stressed out and didn't know where to go because all other pleople would let my case drop or just not get back to me. Laura took care of business and made me at ease by being very clear on everything I was confused about.

Laura Dunst Review

Laura is great.. We are currently working with her on a litigation case. Her support and knowledge about the issues, county ordinances and case law we are dealing with have convinced us to move forward with the case to seek damages and restitution in line with what we believe are real. We are glad sh...e is on our side of this dispute should this go to trial.
