Expert in his field.

Wis has provided me with expert guidance for over three decades. From tax issues to estate planning, he has always provided sound financial and legal advice. Honest, accurate and a true expert. If you want to feel secure, consult with and hire Wis Laughlin.

He's the best

I've used Mr. Laughlin's services for tax preparation and planning for decades and he's always impressed me with his knowledge and care of my account. I'm always amazed at his knowledge of the subject. I find reading all the tax information painful and understanding it harder than it should be. He... has taken the pain out of tax preparation for me. I consider his services a bargain and a necessity.

Avvo Rating

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.
