Best lawyer

I called 15 different offices in the Pierce, Thurston, and Mason county area. Luke Laughlin was the ONLY person to talk with me and hear my story without judgement or money demands. He gave me advice and time. I knew then he was the right lawyer for the job, and he was! He got my CAPTA case dismissed.... He is diligent, detail oriented, a great communicator, and persistent. He gives me faith that there are people in this system that care about the individual and their families. Also, his pricing was WAY better than everyone else surprisingly! (My lawyer before him stunk but was more expensive.) Thank you so much, Luke. We send feelings of happiness and prosperity your way!

Criminal Defense

Luke worked as my attorney from Fall 2019 to Spring 2020. Each time we met, Luke was very transparent about his process moving forward as we prepared our defense and always open to explain any possible outcomes for my case moving forward. When the pandemic caused our last couple of court hearings to... be cancelled, Luke made an effort to work with the prosecutor to wrap up the case, which otherwise would have been put off indefinitely until hearings could be held in person again. Luke took on my case without knowing if I would be able to pay his fees in full and generously accepted whatever amount of money I could fundraise to pay him for his hard work. Luke’s familiarity with criminal defense work helped me feel secure in a time of uncertainty.

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.
