I can't even give her any stars

No stars are given because when she briefly was a judge/commissioner and I had no help, I went ex parte in front of her... only because Patrick Moriarty would have been a conflict of interest (he knew this whole case though as his firm defended me in the past, and got a solid parenting plan on place ...to keep my daughter safe from my drug addicted, severely mentally ill ex) which resulted ultimately in my daughter still being locked into a nightmare unable to even leave the house in a different state. This lady here, did not look at my huge stack of evidence against my ex, nor would she even let me speak on my daughters behalf and ultimately ruled in my exes favor despite the parenting plan I had that notes it can't be changed or altered until he does certain things he never has done. My daughter has scoliosis and he refuses to get medical care to this day for her no dental care she dropped out of school 4 years ago and is trapped...scared of the world, no life skills, or social life at all. My youngest and I haven't seen or talked to her in years despite my fight every day...legally to get her home where she belongs. And this attorney does family law? Yikes I'm sorry if anyone has gone through the same nightmare as we have because of her.

Smart, Professional, Responsive, Thorough.

I have been constantly impressed at how Laura has handled my divorce from an uncooperative spouse. She expertly understands not only divorce law, but people's motivations, and is able to work well to create solutions and move forward. I am thankful to have had Laura leading me through this obstac...le course.

  • 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.
