Laura is extremely knowledgeable and came highly recommended from 2 different friends. She is thorough, friendly, funny and most of all affordable. I was looking for a mediator for a non-contentious divorce that would not cost an arm and a leg. Laura was more than fair and got the job done quickly, painlessly and with a sense of humor that put us at ease. If I could give her 10 stars I would. I highly recommend Laura if you need mediation/divorce services.

Anyone going through a divorce can understand that the process (even getting started) is completely overwhelming. Your whole life is changing coupled with a mixture of emotions.

Working with Laura was a true blessing. Not only did she keep me and my ex focused on the task at hand; she also, demonstrated empathy. She truly was trying to facilitate a win-win for both of us in a situation that was ending amicably. I highly recommend her services and she helped to make a very challenging situation manageable.

Laura was my divorce coach for two and a half years while my husband and I were in mediation with a high-conflict specialist. I am very grateful that I found Laura early on in my divorce process, and she quickly became my most trusted advisor. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Laura's experience, insights, and ability to view issues from various perspectives are unparalleled. She is always willing to explore multiple solutions, which is helpful. She assisted me in crafting arguments that were crucial in negotiating the terms of our Martial Settlement Agreement.

Laura is an elegant, personable, and always professional individual with a great sense of humor. This trait was particularly beneficial during a challenging time when every step felt like it could change your life forever. She handles issues that come up with grace and flexibility.

Scheduling time with her is convenient through her online booking system. She is always punctual, a great listener, passionate about her work, and responsive to emails. Her curiosity drives her to continue to educate herself both within and outside the legal world and to expand her network, which you benefit from as a client.

I highly recommend Laura to anyone embarking on a divorce, as it can be one of the most challenging and strenuous legs of your life journey. Laura can help you devise a strategy and break it down into logical, tactical steps to move the process forward while being mindful of time and costs.

During my divorce, I worked with several professionals, from CDFAs to attorneys, and Laura was hands down the most valuable member of my divorce team. I am confident that you, too, will find her services to be worth every penny.

Laura's services are outstanding! After 20+ years of marriage and 3 school aged kids to take care of, there was a lot to settle on and tremendous emotion involved. She was so patient with us through the process as we took years to resolve, and we appreciated being able to work through it at a pace that was comfortable for us. Her knowledge and neutrality were paramount in helping us mediate peacefully through the divorce process. I highly recommend Laura!

Laura McGee sets a very professional tone for the mediation process. Her style is straightforward and cheerful. She effectively leads both parties through the legal process while bringing clarity and various problem-solving ideas to both parties. She is particularly skilled at using her whiteboard as a tool to display, in black and white, the items for resolution.

As a couple, we were able to achieve our goal of being kind and respectful to each other during this process so there would be no animosity between us, and we could move forward in a friendly relationship.
