> I am a third-generation trial attorney. Both my father and grandfather were trial attorneys, so I grew up watching both of them take cases to trial. I graduated from Baylor University as a premedical student with a degree in biology. But, as the old saying goes, the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. **I was destined for the law.**
## Education & Early Career
Laura went to Baylor Law School and graduated with her J.D. in 1992. Her premedical background was the perfect training for her legal career, and she spent her first 7 years defending medical negligence cases before deciding that her heart was really with the victims of major accidents and medical negligence.
