  • He is a special talent whom I now call a friend.
    Keep searching for the right lawyer for your jurisdiction. You'll know when you have the right one. If it doesn't feel right, keep searching. In Cuyahoga County, it's Eric Laubacher and Co. It's going to cost money either way. So much better to spend the money on a lawyer who will get you your rights. There's no way I would have gotten through this without Eric and his team.

    I was unmarried so this went to Cuyahoga Juvenile Court instead of Domestic Relations, which made things much more complicated. That along with Covid, false accusations, mental health issues, and her leaving the state of Ohio: I never could have navigated this without Eric, he was my second and final lawyer. Opposing side went through 5 lawyers and most of them quit.

    I began with no parental rights in the state of Ohio as an unmarried father, despite having an affidavit of paternity, despite her having been convicted of Child Endangerment, and despite supporting this woman, her son, our daughter, and my son for 3 years in Cuyahoga County. The Results:

    We settled the day the final hearing was supposed to begin: a shared parenting plan, not perfect, but which avoided the costly trial and hit the major points (Eric could have easily charged me to go to trial as he was fully prepared for it, but didn't): I have primary custody in Ohio: school residency, final medical/dental decision making, no child support. I discuss all matters with her before making final decisions. She gets visitation, supervised by her parents, two weekends per month, one out of state and one in OH; half of the summer/winter breaks. She is responsible for all travel costs. In Ohio/Cuyahoga County for a single father, this is close to a miracle.

    Things I learned:

    Documentation. Evidence gathering became my second career. It's absolutely maddening; like reliving the nightmare, but the truth came out in a clear manner as a result. They didn't use my texts and emails in court, but they were reviewed by the GALs and psychiatrists who were able to get a firm picture of what was going on. I created timelines, noted important event dates, I must have had 50 spreadsheets going. I got lost in my own mountain of evidence, but it all helped to paint the big picture.

    It was this big picture which finally got me my daughter. It was Laubacher and Co who took these details and worked them into an undeniable legal narrative. This narrative navigated through 2 Judges, 2 Guardians, the court's diagnostic clinic, an expert psychiatrist, 5 police departments, 2 child services in 2 states over a year and a half. Eric took time to address every concern I had and help me through this utterly senseless process. He is a special talent whom I now call a friend. He has my full endorsement.

  • They were professional and thorough with my divorce.
    I was represented by Mr. Laubacher and his team for 14 months. They were professional and thorough with my divorce. I received a settlement that was fair and equitable You can't ask for any more than that. Bravo

  • I really enjoyed working with them and would highly recommend Laubacher & Co.
    I worked with Eric and Kaitlyn and they helped me so much through a difficult and complicated divorce. They were very quick to respond and walk me through the entire process of a Zoom divorce in the COVID era. They worked hard to guarantee I got everything I was legally entitled. I always felt like they had my back in every meeting and encounter with the opposing counsel. They helped make me feel comfortable during a very unsure time. I really enjoyed working with them and would highly recommend Laubacher & Co.

  • His experience is second to none and I recommend Laubacher and Co to anyone in need of an experienced and hard-working attorney.
    Eric and his firm are very professional and represented me for over two years. The preparation and due diligence they provided was top-notch. No matter how stressed out I was, Eric remained calm and stood by my side throughout the entire case. His experience is second to none and I recommend Laubacher and Co to anyone in need of an experienced and hard-working attorney.

  • He is a caring, sincere, honest, and amazing attorney.
    My family, and my ex husband who will remain nameless tried to take custody of my only son. I was young, scared, and alone. Eric Laubacher stood by my side through everything. That was almost 17 years ago. My family the people that were closest to me said everything you could think of to try to take my son away from me. What they were unaware of is that I keep amazing records of everything that I do. Glad, I did. I never lied to Eric about anything. His words to me was, "you worry when I worry, and I am not worried". He brought in more people to insure that we won my case. Even staying on the phone with me while I went across state lines to make sure that they could not claim that my son had residency in the state of Ohio considering I lived in Florida at the time. He won my case, and kept my son and I together. Proving that all that was said was completely untrue!! I will forever be into his debt to him. He is a caring, sincere, honest, and amazing attorney.

  • Attorney Laubacher is honest, strong, never gives up and was there for finding solutions to my cases even "after business hours" for emergencies.
    After the divorce was finalized in awful circumstances, I had started to look for the real attorney whom I can trust. Therefore I had been researching for "The Most Successful Attorney" in family law.

    Who would want to take a case that has been finalized under a Judge signature? No Attorney could wrap their heads around my case. However Attorney Eric Laubacher took the case and lead it to a successful result.

    Attorney Laubacher not only that works in the best interest of children, he is ready to give his life for children' safety and their best interest. Attorney Laubacher is honest, strong, never gives up and was there for finding solutions to my cases even "after business hours" for emergencies that were created by ex-spouse - falsely through the court system - with the purpose of departing me from my child. Attorney Laubacher conquered the battle of freedom and authenticity with clean evidences. He is the hero I respect!

    I highly recommend Laubacher & Co.

  • He is kind and willing to work with you. You will not find another attorney quite like him.

    Eric is not your typical lawyer. He is compassionate, caring and treats you like one of his family. He is well known and respected in the courthouse so you should feel very comfortable with his representation.

    He is kind and willing to work with you. You will not find another attorney quite like him. I had consultations with a few others that either made it clear they were unreliable or it was all about the money and less about helping me through a difficult time to fight for my son!

    We WON!! He protected the best interests of my son and I am forever grateful. Bring your custody battle to Eric and his staff. I felt more like family and less like a client. You won't be disappointed!!

  • They are honest, ethical, and realistic with what my expectations should be. I will never use another firm.
    I do not have the words to express the amount of gratitude I have for this entire firm, from the attorneys to the support staff. They were my support system during one of the most challenging times I have faced as an adult. They are honest, ethical, and realistic with what my expectations should be. I will never use another firm. They have now represented me on multiple matters and they always conduct themselves in a more than professional manner. I cannot thank Laubacher & Co. enough for everything they have done for myself and my family. These are truly good people that only focus on the best interest of their client.

  • They took the time to explain the possible outcomes and potential pitfalls of decisions to be made.
    Eric and his staff were excellent in helping me to navigate a divorce. They took the time to explain the possible outcomes and potential pitfalls of decisions to be made. In the end, they worked very well with the opposing attorney to come to a mutually beneficial agreement for my ex spouse, as well as our child. Without his well explained guidance through the process, things could have turned very sour quickly. I'd highly recommend this firm for their professionalism, and true compassion for not only their client, but for the entire family involved. They truly work to do the right thing.

  • His team was ultra responsive. His advice was honest with no sugarcoating or wishful thinking.
    Mr. Laubacher and his company was very efficient at dealing with my legal needs. His team was ultra responsive. His advice was honest with no sugarcoating or wishful thinking.

    I found him only after interviewing several candidates who did not give clear cut recommendations upon knowing my circumstances.

    I would give Mr. Laubacher my highest recommendation for anyone in need of legal services.

  • Not only did he completely understand my case and all the laws surrounding it, but he exceeded my expectations.
    Attorney Laubacher did more than an OUTSTANDING Job!!!! I had a Very complex dispute which most attorneys couldn't even wrap their heads around it. Not only did he completely understand my case and all the laws surrounding it, but he exceeded my expectations. I understand how difficult is to go through trials, therefore I would like the World to know if they want real results, Laubacher & Co is the answer. He practices Law in Cuyahoga County and Lorain County.
