Kathy Laughter Laizure

Since graduating law school in 1992, Kathy has represented individuals and businesses in various areas of civil litigation, primarily focusing in the areas of family law and employment law. Kathy brings to her family law clients and practice level-headedness, compassion, and many years of valuable experience.
