More About Laurie Schmidt

When I first set off to law school, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.  I didn’t know if I’d like it, if I’d be good at it, or even if I would pass.  I heard all the horror stories of brilliant minds being driven to their limit and was oddly curious if I could excel. I still remember sitting in my first class, being called on to answer a question, and then knocking it out of the park.  This is when I knew I was in the right seat.

My love and enthusiasm for the law grew from there.  I started to present more minor cases to judges and juries.  You can feel when the perfect argument is being made, which is one of the best feelings for a trial lawyer.  Being able to make a difference in my client’s lives is why I do what I do.

It is never about right or wrong, guilt or innocence; it is ensuring that our Constitutional safeguards remain in place and that the government is challenged so that our criminal justice system does not become commonplace or routine. We should never feel in criminal law that anyone is just checking a box.  Each case, each person, and each individual is unique and deserves that presentation.
