About

The Vander Laan Law Firm’s strength, in addition to offering a broad range of legal services in Nevada and California, is the unique life, professional experience and expansive education of its managing member, Natalia K. Vander Laan, Esq.Natalia has been working in the legal services industry for over ten years. Natalia was born and educated in Poland. There, in 2004, she received her first law degree, in Civil Law, after successfully defending her 140 page legal dissertation. With her admiration of the Common Law system and its application in the United States, Natalia boldly left the comfort of her friends and family and the security of her country and embarked to California to follow her dream of a legal career in the United States. In 2007 she enrolled in the nationally accredited McGeorge School of Law in Sacramento, California. While being a full time law student, Natalia supplemented her legal education with concurrently holding a full time position as a paralegal, an invaluable opportunity she used to gain extensive legal experience by assisting in a wide variety of case litigation from class action lawsuits to personal injury, medical malpractice, and nursing home abuse. In 2011 Natalia received her second law degree, having graduated as a member of the Dean's List and the Traynor Honor Society. Two months later, Natalia sat for and passed the California Bar Exam.Natalia continued her legal career as in-house counsel for Liberty Mutual Insurance Company. Her aptitude as an attorney resulted in her consistently attaining favorable outcomes of intricate, complex and often difficult to win cases and issues. This success was quickly noticed by the supervising attorneys and with confidence they depended on her to handle, on average, a load of 100 cases independently as well as serve as a mentor to law clerks. Each case was different, yet each one was equally important to Natalia. In managing each of her cases, she provided counsel to her clients, prepared case strategy, carried out the discovery process, and conducted settlement negotiations. Fighting for the equitable and fair treatment of her clients, Natalia became experienced in the preparation, presentation, and argument of cases and motions during hearings before judges. To continually provide her clients with the legal representation they deserve, Natalia continues her education by staying current with legal, medical, and scientific issues and promotes the creative use of technology to improve the quality of her legal services rendered.Natalia relocated to Minden, Nevada in late 2013 to be with her husband and near her in-laws. In early 2014 she sat for and passed the Nevada Bar Exam. Natalia quickly became an active member of the Carson Valley community and enjoyed participating in local events offered by its thriving localities. Having experienced the friendliness of the residents and having sensed the strong bond present within the community, Natalia opened her own practice to service the needs of the community of which she has become a part of and wishes to grow with.At the Vander Laan Law Firm, Natalia offers Nevada and California clients her professional and trustworthy legal services in various areas of law including estate planning, family law, personal injury, Workers' Compensation, and business organization and management.The educational and professional paths traveled by Natalia combined with her personal journeys, challenges, and triumphs showcase her commitment, perseverance, ambition and determination to succeed and have shaped and developed her into the well-rounded individual and professional that she is. Natalia always fervently applies her individual and professional strengths to the best interests and needs of the clients whom she represents in her legal practice.

Natalia was amazing! From the minute my wife and I walked through the door we knew we were in good hands. The consultation was free and Natalia reviewed my existing trust from out of state and quoted me before beginning any work. She was patient, understanding, and took her time explaining things. She thoroughly reviewed all of my documents and recommended only what was necessary and fit within my budget. When my wife had questions, she answered those as well all while making sure everything was what I wanted. I can’t say enough positive things about Natalia and will be back if I ever have any needs within her scope of practice! You won’t be disappointed!

Natalia Vander Laan was recommend to me by my CPA. I want to say that she did not disappoint at any time. The work I handed her was quite detailed and time consuming, and I feel she handled it with accuracy and in a timely manner, and she kept me updated and always returned my phone calls and emails. Natalia Vander Laan was very polite, respectful, honest and professional. She always explained what she was going to do, and she always came through. She was very patient and never tried to rush through the multitude of questions I had even when I asked her to reexplain at times something I did not understand. I feel she is second to none, and I would rehire her if I needed her services again, and I would recommend her to anyone desiring a trustworthy attorney in her field. p.s. Her office staff was just as nice and professional.

We hired Natalia to amend our Living Trust. She was thorough and explained everything step by step. She communicated always in a timely manner and answered our questions immediately. We are totally satisfied with her work and will continue to work with her when we need to make any changes to our trust. She is of the highest ethical standards.

Natalia worked with us as we revamped our trust. In 2002 we thought we paid for a good trust. Natalia spent time to identify how the old trust was not clear. She spent the time to help us identify what we wanted and how to phrase that within the trust. She has earned our trust we will use her again if we need an attorney.

We hired Natalia to do our living trust. She clearly explained every aspect and took care of all the details since we owned property in several states. She did a great job and was very friendly. We were also pleased that we can contact her in the future with any major changes for no additional fees. We highly recommend her. She was very easy to work with and very professional.

I was given Natalia's name from a notary we had used. Boy, am I glad we found her. We lived in So Cal and had a trust drawn up there by, what we thought was a knowledgeable attorney. We were so misguided. Our trust wouldn't have stood up to any court. Living now in Nevada, my husband and I can rest assured that everything was done the way the laws in Nevada require. We have been traveling and I feel so much security knowing that we have an attorney that watched out for us. She went the extra mile, and also has a great personality and smile! I have recommended her to our friends, and they also have hired her to do their trust.

I am very pleased that I hired Atty. Natalia Vander Laan regarding my work related injury because honestly, I don’t know much about the Workers’ Comp procedures. She explained to me everything that I need to know and need to be done. She’s very professional, accommodating and possesses a caring attitude towards a client like me who never had an experience to deal with any legal matters so to speak, only now! She’s there for me and with me along the way from start to finish and I truly feel that I’m protected and never alone! Thank you Attorney Natalia for your excellent work, everything goes fast because of your diligence and knowledge and focus on the matter! I will highly recommend you whenever and whoever will need your assistance! Take care and God bless!
