Divorce Lawyer Laura M. Groves

Trusted and Experienced Washington State divorce and family law legal representation.


One of the most critical decisions that you will ever make.
Choosing the right Washington state divorce or Federal Way family law attorney can will have a huge impact in how your case is ultimately resolved.  This is because while your Federal Way divorce or family law matter will probably only last from a couple of months to up to a year, the practical effects of the final orders will likely last for many years into the future.

It is important to find a lawyer that you trust and who believes in your case.  Indeed when your case involves divorce, custody, visitation, child support, legal separation, or paternity, it is absolutely essential that you and your attorney have a solid working relationship. 

The primary goal of our federal way divorce attorneys is to provide you with the information and the necessary resources so that you can make an informed decision about what is in you and your family's best interests.  We fully understand that your case involves making some of the most difficult decisions that you will probably ever face.  We're here to help you achieve your goals.

Effective communication and early strategic planning are essential.
It is absolutely essential that you and your lawyer are on the same page from the beginning of your case.  That is why we start every consultation by actively listening to our clients and learning about their unique situation.  Only you know what is truly best for you and your family.  Our job is to help you achieve these goals.

From the onset, it is important to discuss all aspects of your case and to plan accordingly.  This is because decisions reached early on can have a ripple affect throughout your case.  If you make the wrong decision out of the box, it can severely hinder your options later.

Washington divorce and family law is very complex, and it takes years of practice to fully understand its intricacies and implementation. While some of the laws and basic concepts appear relatively straightforward, their actual application is often anything but straightforward.  Therefore, in addition to having a solid basic understanding of Washington State's divorce laws, it is also imperative that your lawyer understand its subtle nuances.

Part of the problem stems from the fact that Washington divorce law is somewhat intentionally vague and ambiguous by nature. It is intentionally structured to afford judges a tremendous amount of discretion in rendering their decisions.  This is why a thorough understanding of its operating principles is so critical.  Without this understanding, it is simply impossible to properly advise clients about their options.

Your lawyer's resources, skills, and experience.
As in other areas of practice, your attorney must be competent. The more unusual or difficult your case, the more expertise your lawyer must have in order to properly advise and represent you. Of equal or greater importance, however, is being certain that your lawyer is comfortable and has the resources and experience to tailor his or her approach to your specific needs and goals.

Some cases are best resolved by the parties themselves, in mediation, through collaborative divorce, or through some other form of negotiation. In other cases, such an approach is simply impossible. These cases must be litigated. In divorce and family law cases, no lawyer is right for every case.

Every divorce and family law matter is unique.  In many ways, this is truly what sets divorce and family law cases apart from most other areas of the law.  Similarly, every attorney-client relationship is unique as well.  As hard as divorce is, the results will be better and the process will be less painful if you choose your lawyer carefully. 

Unlike many of our competitors, we encourage our clients to interview several prospective lawyers before retaining one.  The investment in time and resources made up front will pay huge dividends many times over when you find the lawyer who is right for you and your divorce case.
