Due to our long time experience in many areas we will help you to find the best solution on any issue.

Principles & Values

Our company offers only legal help and we act only in accordance with widely recognized moral principles.

How We Stand Apart

Our commitment to integrity fosters the respect of judges, juries, arbitrators, mediators and colleagues.

Criminal Defense

A criminal charge and conviction may result in drastic consequences for anyone. It may damage your personal and professional reputation. Your associates and friends may avoid you. Finding a job may be difficult, and challenges may surface for years to come.

Bankruptcy

Business owners and families alike may experience unfortunate financial obstacles leading to bankruptcy. A market downturn and unexpected challenges may lead any business – new or established – down this path.

Estate Planning And Probate

What will happen to your estate when you die? Or you become incapacitated and are no longer able to make crucial decisions about your personal finances? Questions about estate planning must be addressed and answered by you.

Real Estate

Preparation is crucial for commercial and residential property investors. In looking for properties, you must determine the right one to add to your investment portfolio.

Employment & Contracts

No matter how much you know about hiring employees, payroll, marketing or mergers and acquisitions, some subjects that you know little about often come to the forefront. The attorneys at Smith, O'Toole & Brooke, in Lexington and Richmond, have the business law knowledge and experience that has helped hundreds of companies in central Kentucky. Corporate law (also known as business law or enterprise law or sometimes company law) is the body of law governing the rights, relations, and conduct of persons, companies, organizations and businesses.

Family Law – Divorce & Custody

Sometimes it takes a balanced and level-headed approach to iron out the issues and reach a good settlement for everyone involved. In that case you want an attorney that won’t create unnecessary disputes just to run your bill up, we are experienced enough to be effective and efficient. A divorce can bring complications to anyone’s life. If the couple has children, they must address child support, visitation and custody matters to name a few. Joint assets accumulated during the marriage also must be divided, adding another twist to completing a divorce.

Lauren is an absolutely phenomenal attorney! She was easy to work with and fought for the things that were import for me. She was my attorney for my divorce in 2016, and again for fighting for 50/50 custody in 2018. She always answered any questions I had and kept me informed on the whole process every step of the way. I very much appreciate all the hard work and dedication she provided me, because it made me feel like I was top on the priority list thru out my time of needing an attorney! I have referred several friends to use her services since she performed so well for myself. Cannot speak highly enough about this woman! Utilizing her services is a must for any case that is important to you! Highly recommended.
