Innovative and Realistic Solutions

We are dedicated to helping our clients find effective resolutions to their legal problems. We recognize that few people have the resources to get caught up in a lengthy legal battle. Many of our clients tell us that they simply seek to be treated fairly and to receive just compensation for their claims and injuries. We pride ourselves on listening carefully to our clients' concerns and helping them find effective, realistic, and long-term solutions to best meet their goals.

We're Looking Out for Your Interests

You hire an attorney to take action. You hire an attorney to give you honest legal advice and to be an advocate for you in negotiations or in court. At The Baker Law Firm, PA, we take a holistic, "big picture" approach to the practice of law. Our goal is to zealously and honorably represent the interests of our clients within the bounds of the law. Sometimes, the best short-term solution can have negative long-term consequences. Our philosophy in every case is to represent the entire person, taking into account not only the legal challenges facing a client, but also all relevant ethical, financial, emotional and spiritual considerations.

Although we can never promise a particular result in a specific case, we can promise to devote our skills to reach the most favorable outcome for your circumstances and help you through a difficult time.

An Experienced Team with Local Roots

The Bakers met at Campbell University School of Law in Raleigh, North Carolina, where they tried cases together in mock court and fell in love with the law and each other. "Luke and Laura" became partners in marriage, and recently became law partners as well. Although they concentrate in different areas of the law, their clients benefit from their "two heads are better than one" approach to each other's cases.

Lucas was born and raised in small-town North Carolina (Sylva), and brings those values to his legal practice. He handles family law, personal injury and wrongful death, and business and civil litigation. Laura's special focus is criminal defense and family law. After honing their skills as associate attorneys at area law firms, Lucas and Laura established The Baker Law Firm in Concord in March 2009.

We Won't Leave You in the Dark

A common complaint about lawyers is lack of communication after they take the case. At The Baker Law Firm, we understand that these are tense and uncertain times for you and your family. We take the time to listen to your story and address your worries. We explain your rights and options and what is likely to happen at each stage, and keep you informed and involved during the process. You can expect us to return your phone calls or e-mails—and provide honest answers when we do.

About Our Legal Fees

Our legal fees are reasonable and competitive:

• Initial consultations are always free of charge in personal injury cases.
• In family law, criminal defense and other cases, we charge a reasonable fee for the initial consultation.

In personal injury cases, we take cases on a contingency fee basis. This means we charge no legal fees unless we recover compensation, in which case we collect a percentage of your recovery (established up front) plus any expenses advanced. In divorce cases, we also handle certain property division cases on contingency.

Attorney fees are case-specific. We can't typically give a quote over the phone, but by the end of your initial consultation we will be to provide a firm quote or reasonable estimate of the cost of representation.
