Laura Nagy
Lawyer
Laura joined the Visionary Law team in December 2021 to focus mostly on family law, after spending the first few years of her practice in the courtroom as a criminal defence lawyer. Born and raised in Montreal as a second-generation immigrant, Laura studied law in Ottawa before moving to Winnipeg, where she confirmed her interest in advocating for the rights of minorities and vulnerable individuals. Laura prides herself in her ability to provide legal services in both French and English and she believes that a good lawyer is always prepared for Court and reasonable in negotiations, courteous with other counsel and respectful with others, and doing their best to provide their clients with compassionate and quality representation. Her interest in family law stems from a desire to help people going through an impactful time in their life to provide them with the necessary tools to make educated and well-reasoned decisions, whether for themselves or their family. Laura brings unique perspectives with her background in criminal defence, especially for cases involving domestic violence, her experience with child protection cases involving CFS, having worked as a court clerk, and sitting on the Mental Health Review Board. Laura is involved in professional organizations and volunteers her services with community legal education organizations, as she strongly believes in access to justice. Her involvement with St. Boniface Street Links has been her favourite way to give back to the community since moving to Winnipeg, and she regularly volunteers her time with the Association des juristes d’expression francaise du Manitoba and Info Justice.
When Laura is not in court, writing a brief or doing some light case law reading, she is likely spending time with the cutest dog in the world, staying active, or talking to her plants.
