Laura also worked for a large Connecticut personal injury firm and a large national injury law firm.  

Laura knows how insurance companies evaluate cases, and how to recover as much money as possible for her clients to get her clients back on their feet as quickly as possible. Laura has litigated a wide variety of personal injury cases against negligent drivers and landowners. Over her career, Laura has fought for injury victims to secure six-figure and seven-figure settlements; and has settled over 100 cases in one year.
