Our Mission

Laughlin Legal Divorce & Family Law Group

was founded to help our clients take the next vital step in their lives by empowering them, advocating for their rights, and delivering outcomes that offer them a better tomorrow.

WHY OUR
CLIENTS
CHOOSE US?

We’re “not
your average
law firm.”

We excel at great outcomes for the most complex cases. Our invaluable experience litigating financial disputes in Silicon Valley, trained us to take an exhaustive approach when dividing assets, or vdetermining custody or support in complex divorce cases. Add Certified Negotiation Mastery and Certified Mediation to that equation and it’s understandable why we’re more likely to attain an excellent result.

This is not a volume practice. We take it one case at a time. And unlike most family law firms, whichever approach suits each case best – whether litigation, mediation, or collaborative law – our in-house team has expertise in all three areas plus trust and estate practice, real estate practice, and premarital agreements. We’ve got you covered not only during your divorce, but before and after, too.

We’re at the forefront of divorce & family law. Our cloud-based practice was an early adopter of CoCounsel AI and private judging to resolve disputes faster. And we innovate to cut costs. We offer New Beginnings a free 60-minute monthly Q&A session on zoom for people considering divorce or already in the process. We’ve also created do-it-yourself videos to assist clients in preparing their own financial disclosures, rather than paying the firm.

It’s an unusual but harmonious pairing: cutting edge tech solutions saving costs for clients, and timeless personalized customer service. So often, one is sacrificed for the other. But we feel they’re equally essential to fully protecting our Clients.
We’ve chosen an IT partner who cares as much as we do about it perhaps because his first love was law enforcement. The solution is digital vigilance well beyond what’s legally required, a safety zone only about 10% of companies opt to inhabit.
Every now and then we get a case with pronounced mental health challenges, or a novel case with no case law to fall back on, for instance on division of alternative assets and income available for support. The approach that consistently works for us is to map out a strategy, be realistic and honest with our clients, stay focused on the resolution and not the challenges, and bring in additional expertise as needed.
After many years of practicing family law, we have developed a network of professionals that’s second to none. Let us know if you’d like an introduction to a therapist, psychiatrist, custody evaluator, parent coordinator, CPA, certified divorce financial planner, bookkeeper, real estate or business appraiser, valuation expert, forensic accountant, private investigator, or other expert.

Each month we contribute a portion of our revenue to a charitable organization In honor of one of our clients. Please email us here to suggest we consider contributing to one of your favorite nonprofits. We welcome an introduction!
