I interviewed a lot of attorneys and looked long and hard for someone who could represent me in a very contentious custody battle with my ex. Ms. Laurent was extremely compassionate, competent and very knowledgeable. She was always available when I called the office and I can never thank her enough for helping me through a very tough time. She is amazing.
Ms. Laurent understood and empathized that I was dealing with an abusive person with a severe personality disorder. She was able to pinpoint the abusive behavior, and get the judge's attention She effectively prevented the other party from gaslighting and twisting reality. She helped me get a three year restraining order against this person.
