Margaret Garcia
I sought out Laura Westergard at Morrison Foerster for assistance with a commercial litigation matter involving a contract dispute. Given her recognition by Best Lawyers in Commercial Litigation, I was confident in her expertise. Laura was thorough in analyzing the details of my case and provided sound legal counsel, particularly in navigating the complexities of employment-related issues that overlapped with our commercial dispute. However, I found her communication style a bit formal at times, and while she was responsive, there were occasional delays in follow-ups that could have been avoided with clearer timelines. The outcomes were satisfactory, but I wished for more proactive guidance on potential resolutions. Her depth of knowledge in labor and employment law was evident, but the overall experience felt somewhat transactional. I’d recommend Laura for her technical skills, but clients should be prepared to manage expectations around responsiveness and personal engagement.
