Laughlin Legal provides comprehensive family law services at every stage of a relationship transition—from prenuptial planning to mediation and litigation to post-divorce matters. Practice areas include ultra-high-asset and international divorce, custody and parenting disputes, domestic violence, adoption and guardianship, LGBTQ+ family law, mediation, elder law, conservatorships, and trust and estate matters. 

Founded by Amy Laughlin, a family law attorney often recognized for her expertise in the courtroom litigating UHNW divorce and child custody cases, Laughlin Legal is known for guiding clients through family law disputes with skill, discretion, and a commitment to protect both financial stability and family relationships.

The firm brings deep knowledge and years of experience guiding families as they navigate the emotional, physical, and often invisible burdens resulting from the sharply rising prevalence of neurodevelopmental, psychiatric, and complex medical conditions, including autism spectrum disorder.

Known for handling complex and high-conflict cases with clarity and strategic focus, the attorneys at Laughlin Legal are uniquely skilled at complex asset valuation and division, including business interests, carried interest assets, founder’s stock, offshore accounts, and international real estate property.
Laughlin Legal combines a high-tech, high-touch legal model designed to provide a distinctly high level of service and responsiveness to clients navigating some of life’s most challenging transitions. Our firm leverages innovative tools and a cloud-based practice to improve efficiency while maintaining deeply personalized legal counsel and strong client communication.

In the words of our clients:
“They saved my kids.”
“Focused on getting things done, not running up fees.”
