Virginia Beach divorce attorney Laura K. Hughes understands that when a person seeks a family law attorney, he or she is at a low point. For whatever reason, the family is in crisis and that crisis will have a ripple effect to an unknown extent.

“Because the family dynamic is so critical to both parties as well as any children involved, it is important to be that compassionate counselor to minimize damage and preserve those parental relationships to the maximum extent possible,” Ms. Hughes said.

Ms. Hughes can stand her ground without forgetting that all parties involved are deserving of compassion and respect.

“I cannot promise that the process will be easy,” she said, “but we will get through this together.”
