Criminal Defense and DUI | Divorce and Family Law | Estate Planning

Criminal Defense and DUI
Laura McDermott is a former felony prosecutor with the Maricopa County Attorney's Office and the Pinal County Attorney's Office. As a prosecutor, she handled cases ranging from simple traffic matters up to and including non-capital murder cases. As a criminal defense attorney, she works one-on-one with her clients at every stage of their case to develop an effective defense strategy. By utilizing her trial and negotiation skills and familiarity with the Arizona criminal justice system, her clients can rest assured that they are receiving aggressive, personalized, and strategic representation in their criminal cases. Almost all of the criminal legal services offered by the McDermott Law Firm are available on a flat fee basis.

Divorce and Family Law
As part of her family law practice, Laura McDermott understands the dynamics of divorce and family law, as well as the emotional impact that these life-changing events can have on a family. She works closely with her family law clients to create a goal oriented approach to their family's legal issues and conflicts. Once the client's goals are established, a personalized legal strategy is developed to resolve the family conflicts in the client's best interests.  The goal oriented approach makes it much more affordable for clients, because goal oriented (unbundled) family legal services are offered on a flat-fee basis.  In this manner, Laura McDermott is proud to offer her clients affordable family legal services for matters involving divorce and post-divorce modification, legal separation, orders of protection, child custody and parenting time (visitation), child support, spousal maintenance (alimony), paternity, adoption, guardianship, grandparent rights, and parental rights.  

Estate Planning
Laura McDermott offers her clients affordable estate planning packages that fit the needs and budgets of many families and individuals. Standard packages include a Last Will and Testament, General Durable Financial Power of Attorney, Durable Health Care Power of Attorney, Durable Mental Health Care Power of Attorney, and an Advance Healthcare Directive (also known as a Living Will). Based on the client's needs, the standard package can be upgraded to include a simple Trust.  Laura McDermott recommends all her family law clients update their Estate plan once their family law case has been resolved.
