Laurie Schmidt represented me in a divorce and was absolutely amazing! She, and her team, are excellent and caring professionals. I highly recommend her. Finding someone with her integrity, expertise, and tireless work ethic is rare, and I am grateful for her counsel.

From day one Laurie cared. Honestly, that's more than you can ask for from most anyone in any industry. With a professional demeanor, she kept me in the loop the entire time. She has a great team of people helping her as well as a great network of necessary professionals to assist as needed. Laurie has a way of arguing her points from a place of facts and with a level-head which I did not see a lot of from the other side we were up against. She is considerate in the way she delivers both good and bad news. In the best meaning of the phrase, she does not mess around in preparation or in the court room. I would consider her operation a one stop shop for fighting the injustice that is our broken justice system.

Details of my case are lengthy for this review, needless to say I had a complex issue with my ex-wife that was impacting our child. Laurie Schmidt and team did a great job removing the emotional content to deliver results in the stipulation. Glad to have Laurie's help during this difficult time.

If you are faced with Criminal Charges in regards to Domestic Violence Ms.Schmidt is the lady for the job. From the moment I sat down with her she was open minded, understanding, and no nonsense all at the same time. In this critical time in your life so many lawyers will try to rip you off monetarily, but Ms. Schmidt was reasonable and was more concern about wanting to represent my best interest in this case. Ms. Schmidt is well versed in Colorado law. Ms. Schmidt DESTROYED the DA in my trial: she was likable, relatable, and precise with guiding the jurors minds to lack of evidence, inconsistency of testimony; and MOST IMPORTANTLY Ms. Schmidt was able to capture the Jurors with her personality. Whether you are a male or female faced with criminal charges, Ms Schmidt is the General you want to lead your Defense.

Laurie Schmidt took my case and made all the right moves and was very prepared to destroy the city's case. It never got that far as she played them like a chess master and the case was dismissed on the date of trial. A professional lawyer and supportive person.

I initially retained Laurie for a criminal case that was part of a very big federal issue. She took the time to listen to what was going on and was the only one who didn't think we were lying. She took on the case and spent countless hours investigating and working to dismiss the case on my behalf. She ultimately got the criminal case dismissed and also got 2 civil cases that were related to the criminal case dismissed as well. She was very knowledgeable and worked tirelessly to make sure I was not convicted of something I didn't do. I would hire her again if ever in need. She truly cares about her clients.

I would most definitely recommend Laurie. She is a consummate professional, she handled my case quickly, efficiently, & for a fair price. In my initial phone contact with Laurie, she took over an hour to understand all of the pertinent information regarding my case. When we met in her office, she continued to assess the risk, then competently brought my case to a successful conclusion...

I phoned Laurie on behalf of a friend for legal advice and to hire her to represent my friend in court. I spoke with her around 9am and she was in the courtroom to visit by noon for a 1:30pm appearance. She gave fast, solid legal advice in a tough situation.

I am a 60 year old man who has never been in trouble before. I was wrongfully charged in a domestic violence felony assault case. Laurie Schmidt was the second attorney to represent me in this case. My confidence in her was well placed. Laurie handled my case in a professional, ethical, and systematic manner. She was able to, effectively, have my case dismissed, and thus giving me my life back.

I was charged with the crime of disorderly conduct in which I did not do. I would not accept any kind of plea bargain where it was implied that I was guilty. In order to do this, I needed an attorney. Laurie Schmidt wasn't my initial attorney. My initial attorney had become understandably frustrated with the municipality my case was in (things like getting the police report). Luckily, that inital attorney knew Laurie and with my approval, handed her the case. Laurie ran right through any obstacles that the municipality threw at her and got the case going with no problem. Although she tried to avoid going into the court room for a jury trial on this case, it ended up going that way. I wasn't sure what to expect in the court room but she gave me a good idea. When the trial started, she was in control of the court room as much as anyone can be except for the judge. She had a good blueprint for how she would handle the trial and it worked well. In the end, I was found "not guilty". It was unfortunate I had to fight this charge, but I was glad Laurie was by my side and helped me through it.
