Laura Sell believes that in the practice of law, few things are more important
than helping clients protect the aspects of their lives that they value
most – be it obtaining a favorable parenting plan or protecting
their financial security. For that reason, she chose to transition her
career as a civil litigator to focus exclusively on family law.
Her experience as a civil litigator gives Laura a diverse background and
skills in a variety of complex legal and financial issues. This wider
lens also gives her a well-rounded perspective on legal matters, which
she leverages to achieve successful results for her clients. She excels
in cases involving high value assets, closely-held businesses, professional
practices, and complex compensation structures.
Laura is committed to providing superior advocacy and personalized client
service in every case. She and her team are resourceful and strategic.
Along with their strong work ethic, they strive to obtain favorable results
for their clients.
“Once I help my clients identify their goals, I work tirelessly to
achieve those goals for them,” says Laura. “I make it my priority
to get them the results they need in order for them to transition into
the next chapter of their lives.”
Laura often serves as a mediator and settlement conference master in family
law cases. She uses her understanding of the pressures people face during
a family law matter to help them work past their differences, resolve
their disputes, and settle their cases.
“My work as a mediator and attorney go hand-in-hand,” says
Laura. “They’ve both taught me to listen to my clients. People
often know what is fair and what will work for their family. I work to
get them to that place, whether as a mediator or as their advocate.”
As the firm's Law Practice Managing Partner, Laura also leads our attorneys
in practice development, training and mentoring, as well as consulting
on cases and ensuring the firm's high standards of quality.
Outside of work, Laura enjoys entertaining and cooking for friends and
family and admits that a karaoke machine is often found at her parties.
She and her family love traveling together, with beach destinations being
among their favorites.
