Education: UC Davis School of Law King Hall

Jurisdictions: California - Admitted in 1979 (30 years)

Estate Planning, Trust and Probate Law:

I provide a complete range of estate planning and probate services. I work with clients to create and implement an estate plan specifically designed with them in mind, including their family, their business, their property and their personal wishes. This includes preparation of Durable Powers of Attorney for Health Care and Durable Powers of Attorney for Asset Management.

Family Law:

I have nearly 30 years of experience in family law. Besides being a highly trained, experienced and knowledgeable family lawyer, I am personally and professionally sensitive to the concerns of my clients and their children during the period of transition.

I assist individuals and families in formation, with adoptions, establishment of parentage, guardianships, conservatorships, special needs trusts for the disabled, pre-marital, marital and life-partner agreements, asset protection and wealth preservation.

Divorce:

In cases of divorce, or dissolution of a domestic partnership or other non-marital relationship, I anticipate spouses or partners will commit to resolution of their differences by means of mediation or the collaborative law process. California law authorizes both mediation and collaborative practice in family law cases.

Except in enforcement-of-judgment cases, or unusual circumstances about which the prospective client is invited to inquire in a free consultation, I do not take divorce or partnership dissolution cases in which the parties are not prepared to make this commitment.

Elder Law:

I provide resources of information, education, networking and assistance to those who deal with the many specialized issues involved with legal services to seniors and people with special needs. I am also a highly-qualified provider of legal advocacy, guidance and services to enhance the lives of people with special needs and people as they age.

Bio for Donna A. Laurent, Certified Family Law Specialist

Donna graduated from Southwestern University School of Law, Summa Cum Laude, in May 1994. While at Southwestern, she earned American Jurisprudence Awards in Legal Research & Writing, Constitutional Law and Torts. She also received Corpus Juris Secundum Awards in Civil Procedure and Torts and an Outstanding Achievement Award in the International Protection of Human Rights. She was invited to Law Review and Moot Court, but chose, instead, to devote her non-school hours to raising her young son, who started kindergarten when she started law school.

Prior to law school, Donna earned a B.A. in Drama from the University of Virginia and spent several years acting in various theater companies before eventually becoming the Director of Acquisitions for a private real estate owner/developer of multi-million dollar manufactured housing communities located throughout the United States. She held that position for several years and was responsible for acquiring properties valued at over $50,000,000. This background and experience provide Donna with unique skills which can be creatively utilized in both courtroom advocacy and in analyzing complex financial issues.

While still attending law school, Donna began volunteering in the Domestic Violence Clinic of the San Fernando Valley Neighborhood Legal Services. She has continued to advocate for domestic violence victims over the past 16 years and has a particular expertise in this area of family law.

In addition, Donna is highly experienced in the representation of parents of “special needs” children, including children with autism, bipolar disorder, learning disabilities, ADHD, etc. As the parent of a special needs child herself, she brings personalized knowledge, empathy and an ability to develop and implement individualized parenting plans that best suit the unique needs of these children and their families. She has lectured extensively, both for various bar associations and for the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts on issues related to special needs children involved in family law proceedings .

Donna is also extremely active in local bar association activities and does volunteer work for the Los Angeles Superior Court’s Family Law Departments in a number of capacities. She has sat as a “Judge Pro Tem” or temporary judge, in numerous family law courts throughout L.A. County since 2005. She is a volunteer family law mediator for the Van Nuys branch court. She and Cari M. Pines are currently Co-Chair Elects of the Executive Committee of the Family Law Section of the San Fernando Valley Bar Association (SFVBA) and Co-Chairs of the Family Law Section’s Programs. She is a former Trustee of the SFVBA, a Co-Chair of its Attorney Referral Service Committee, and a member of its Diversity Committee, which includes being an adult advisor/Committee Member of the Bar’s Law and Government Explorer Post #1926.

In her free time, Donna’s hobbies include flower gardening & practicing meditation.
