After first conversation with Laura I felt very comfortable and confident in my choice of lawyer. She treated me like a friend more than a client. As a newish Canadian and English is not my primary language, I felt very confused on the rules and laws surrounding a divorce. She led me through the steps and encouraged me to open my world up to her. I moved forward with a leader and partner facing my fears. I would highly recommend Laura as a lawyer and a counselor š (emotional support) I am now through it and not sure I couldāve got here without her.

From the moment I walked in, full of anxiety, Laura's demeanor quickly calmed me and my family law file down. Even with divorce looming overhead, meetings began and ended with smiles, and reassurance. There was even laughter in the room. Laura knows her stuff, and even in the thick fog of war she maintained a superhuman ability to explain processes and nuances of separation and divorce. - All this to just say that I came into her office stressed out of my mind, but left tremendously happy.

Laura provided outstanding legal assistance, and gave me the keys to manage my family matter successfully going forward.
As I was operating on a limited budget, she did great work giving me directions on doing what legwork I could, and combining it with her experience and training to drive a great result.
One of her best contributions was seeing through the complexities of the legal/Courts in BC to help keep me focused on finding the best and fairest outcome.
Very highly recommended.

I would highly recommend Laura for legal assistance in any family law matter. Laura is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and will be your best advocate through a most difficult time.
Laura has taken the stress away from me on many occasions. She has helped in looking after my legal rights and my entitlements. Laura dealt with my childrenās father before and after our divorce regarding continued child support and spousal support and was a brilliant advocate for both.
I remember a time when it was extremely challenging and Laura took away all my stress by saying something like ā Cathy, that is why I am here to deal with this so you donāt have toā. I felt like I was fighting the bully all by myself until she said that. I realized I was not alone and that Laura really had me and was looking after me.
I am so very grateful to Laura for her expertise and skills over the years. She has a most gentle manner with you while being extremely effective in getting results in a timely manner and fashion.
If you are needing an advocate for yourself and children I would not hesitate to use Laura. She will help you navigate through the difficulties and not waste your time and money doing so.

Laura Atkinson provided legal advise during a difficult separation and divorce through collaborative law. Laura was always informed, knowledgeable and fair when providing information and encouraged me to ask lots of questions. She helped me seek balance and fairness in my separation and I felt I was always in trustworthy hands. Laura did not lead me astray during this very stressful time in my life and my separation agreement has covered any issue that has come up over the last five years.
I would highly recommend Laura to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest and keeping your best interest and unique need at the forefront of negotiations. Should the need arise I would not hesitate to seek representation from Laura again.
