Rachel Laborde

Firm: Shuttleworth & Ingersoll
115 3rd Street Southeast , Cedar Rapids , Iowa 52401
Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation
Attorney Rachel Laborde obtained her Bachelor of Arts in Spanish Language, Literature and Culture from Marquette University and subsequently earned her Juris Doctor from Marquette University Law School. Attorney Laborde focuses her practice in Divorce and Family Law, where she excels in negotiating, mediating and litigating cases involving paternity, custody, physical placement, child support, maintenance, divorce, legal separation and post-judgment modifications. She is committed to delivering a client-centered, problem-solving approach where she consistently strives to reach results that provides the greatest value and long-term benefits to clients. She is confident that most cases can be resolved in a quick and cordial fashion, but Attorney Laborde is prepared to litigate with unwavering fervor should a mutually agreeable solution be out of reach.. Attorney Laborde is also a Certified Collaborative Family Law Lawyer. Collaborative family law practice is a unique, reasonable approach to handling a divorce or other family law matter, founded on three core principles: a written pledge not to fight in court, and withdrawal of the hired professionals if either party chooses to fight in court, open communication between the parties with an honest and good faith exchange of information, and negotiations leading to a mutually acceptable settlement that takes into account the highest priorities of all family members. The collaborative approach works with a team mindset; you and the other party, along with your attorneys, use the skills of mental health and financial specialists to maximize positive outcomes for the family. In addition to divorce, you can use the collaborative process in other family law matters such as paternity, annulment, legal separation, pre-marital agreements, post-nuptial agreements, non-marital relationships and same-sex relationships. The issues addressed in collaborative cases are the same ones addressed in traditional litigation cases: child custody and placement, property valuation and division, child support, maintenance (alimony), taxes, and insurance.

Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation
Married for 32 years and the mother of two boys and one girl, when I am not interacting with clients, attorneys and judges, with whom I have developed lasting professional relationships, I am often running my kids, enjoying movies and playing with our two English Springer Spaniels. I am a sports memorabilia collector, a passion I share with my husband, I have met and received autographs from baseball greats Ted Williams, George Brett, Steve Garvey and Catfish Hunter, among countless others. An avid traveler, I have enjoyed trips to San Diego, New Orleans, the Grand Canyon, Bahamas and many other destinations. The best trip to date was our recent family vacation to Disney World. I enjoy movie marathons. My favorite films include Raiders of the Lost Ark, Silence of the Lambs, The Sound of Music and Forrest Gump.. Hailing from a small town south of Des Moines, complete with one traffic light, a grocery store and laundromat, my family law practice mirrors my homegrown upbringing—family and community come first. My father was a truck driver and my mother was a homemaker who instilled in me a strong work ethic. I was the first college graduate in my family. My personal motto is: treat others as you would want to be treated yourself. My husband and I were licensed pre-adoptive foster parents for seven years.. In 1993, after graduating law school, I began my family law practice. My philosophy is direct: every client deserves legal representation that is equal parts compassion and straightforwardness. I always ensures that my client’s needs are heard and respected. Often called a financial bean counter by colleagues due to my thoroughness, I am a sole practitioner, which means my clients only work with me. I view my family law practice as a facilitator allowing families to begin the healing process. I provide special counsel for divorcing parents to ensure that their children are not adversely affected by the separation/divorce process.. Trained as a Family Law Mediator (2004) and currently a mediator for family law matters. I understand that clients come to my office during times of emotional turmoil. A firm supporter of Collaborative Law, my goal is to help client's reach resolution without going to court. I always provide an empathetic, accurate assessment of the facts to ensure each client arrives at the best possible solution.. Receiving my undergraduate degree from Grand View College in Des Moines in 1988, I graduated Washburn University School of Law in Topeka, Kansas in 1992. I have been a member of the Iowa State Bar Association since 1993. Additionally, I was the co-editor of the Family Law Newsletter for the Iowa State Bar Association from (1997 to 2002). I served on the Polk County Bar Association Board of Directors 2009-2013, PCBA Executive Board Secretary 2017-2019, PCBA Vice President 2019-2020, PCBA President-Elect 2020-2021, PCBA President of the PCBA 2021-2022, Co-chair of PCBA Solo and Small Law Firm Committee (2015 to present), ISBA Section Counsel for the Family and Juvenile Law committee 2014 to present, ISBA Board of Governors from 2013 to 2017 and 2022 to present, Master in Jack Levin Family Law Inns of Court 2019 to present.
