Laura Hoffman

Ms. Hoffman limits her practice to contested divorce and complex family law matters. This includes a wide array of legal issues ranging from domestic violence, custody and child support, to post judgment actions. She is well-versed in business valuations, enhanced earnings, distribution of professional degrees and other matters surrounding property distribution. Her goal is to combine the facts as the client presents them with the law as she knows it to achieve the client’s objectives. She also works diligently to resolve matters before court intervention is necessary. When this is not possible, she is prepared to take the case to trial and has significant trial experience.

Ms. Hoffman’s academic distinctions make her well-suited for the practice area. She received her Juris Doctor with Honors from Syracuse College of Law in 2005. There, she was awarded the Excellent Achievement in the Study of Trial Practice award by the College of Law, as well as bestowed a Certificate of Specialization in Family Law & Social Policy. She began her practice in this field as a Student Attorney in the Children’s Rights and Family Clinic representing clients in court even before graduation.

Ms. Hoffman knows that family conflicts are highly stressful and emotional. She has dedicated her career to helping clients obtain solutions. As a wife and mother, she understands the sensitivity of these issues and will take the time to understand and concerns and develop a tailored legal strategy to meet your needs.
