I retained Laura to assist with a complicated multi-state PFA and Custody Hearing. Laura is an excellent attorney who is very competent and compassionate. As with most Family Court matters the issues surrounding my case are/were sensitive and very emotional. While the custody matter is scheduled for mid April, Laura worked with co-counsel in NY to successfully petition the NY Family Court to order the custody matter be heard in Delaware. Laura was also successful in arguing for the dismissal of a PFA filed in Delaware. I would highly recommend Laura as she is a thorough communicator, attentive listener and superior legal strategist. Laura is honest, responsive and after every interaction I am left feeling that Laura genuinely cares about me as a person and parent. Throughout what has felt like the "fight of my life", Laura has remained focused, positive and incredibly supportive. Having held several positions in the Family Court prior to being admitted to the Delaware Bar, Laura has develop lasting and mutually respectful relationships with seemingly everyone in Family Court. I highly recommend Laura!!!

I was a broken man after I found out about my wife cheating and stealing my identity. I was homeless my credit was shot and to top it all off my children were taken from me. Hiring Laura was the best decision in my life, I moved in with my sister and Laura fought right away on getting my children back into their fathers arms. Everytime my ex filed a new motion ( which was all the time), Laura fought back with true class. I can honestly say I don’t want to imagine where I’d be if I never walked into her office. She literally saved me, and for that I will always be in her debt.

I am a Principal and loving parent of three. Several years ago, I set up a mediation with Mrs. Brooks through Avvo to review my case. It was by far the best decision I have ever made for myself and the welfare of my children. Mrs. Brooks was very knowledgeable about all aspects of my case and the law. In addition, she listened to my concerns and it was evident she cared. One of the things I respected most about Mrs. Brooks is her honesty. She painted a very realistic picture for me once all information was presented, and provided sound advice in moving forward with my proceedings. Mrs. Brooks went above and beyond for me and my children, answering question after question, as well as availing herself outside of business hours. Once my case went to trial, Mrs. Brooks did a magnificent job translating my concerns, my dedication as an active father, and requests in being able to lawfully obtain more time with my children. As a result of Mrs. Brooks’ hard work and expertise, I now have equal time in joint custody of my children, and we are doing amazing. There is no doubt in my mind that this would not be possible had I not been recommended to Mrs. Brooks. I would like to formally say thank you to Laura on behalf of myself and my children. You have truly been a blessing to us, and I am extremely pleased to know someone of your integrity and expertise is fighting for fathers like me. Thank you again!

Laura was recommended to me by a close friend when I was going through a divorce. My first meet with Laura I immediately felt comfortable and relaxed as she was very attentive to my story and all the details pertaining to my divorce.
Throughout the entire process of the Divorce, Laura was always available to answer my questions and handled the entire process flawlessly.
When we attended court throughout the process, Laura was not at all intimidated by anyone. She was clear, concise and made her points strong and delivered countless blows to the opposing parties by stating facts and details. At no point during the process did Laura lower herself to the opposing parties side. She stayed above par throughout the entire process and plays clean and fair, but certainly very stern in her beliefs and actions.
When it was all over and finished, even though divorces tend to typically be stressful and prolonged, I had zero stress.
Laura is not only an excellent attorney, she takes the time to listen and understand the whole situation and all the facts.
I would highly recommend Laura to anyone that needs an attorney for Divorce.

I hired Laura to help with a bitter divorce and a nearly year-long custody battle after a 20 year marriage. It was one of the most distressing times in my life and I truly felt that not only did I have a knowledgable lawyer but someone who truly was a ally and an advocate for my teenaged children. She genuinely cared about us and our future.

I hired Mrs. Brooks to represent me in a child custody case and 3rd party visitation case. Between both cases Brooks kept in touch, every time I reached out to her with a question she gave me an answer within a reasonable time. She was very reliable. Also, very knowledgeable, and without a doubt cared for the well being of my child. I won both cases through Mrs. brooks. Although, it was a stressful time period, I found peace In knowing my case was in great hands! Not to mention she worked with me regarding payment. As a single mother, scrounging up the funds for a lawyer can be difficult. However, Mrs. Brooks made an arrangement that worked best for the both of us and continued to give me remarkable service!

I hired Laura Brooks to handle my divorce in 2012. Laura was extremely knowledgeable of the law, the process and court system, she provided sound advice and counsel, she was prompt in responding to my inquiries and concerns, and she prepared and processed the paperwork in a timely manner. I have recommended Laura to several friends and colleagues and have no doubt she is providing the same level of professional service to them.
