Laurie Haxel

Project & Quality Director

With a strong foundation in pharmaceutical and biologic quality systems, Laurie Haxel brings a unique perspective to her role as Project and Quality Manager at Haxel Law. She ensures the firm’s operations reflect the same level of precision, compliance, and integrity expected in highly regulated industries. Before joining the legal world, she spent most of her career in quality assurance and compliance, retiring as a National Expert Investigator for Biologics at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In that role, she audited firms across the U.S. and internationally to ensure compliance with federal regulations governing drug and biologic manufacturing.

When Marty Haxel opened Haxel Law, Laurie saw an opportunity to build something new, anchored in quality. While her move into the legal field was unplanned, she quickly discovered a passion for helping clients and improving firm processes. She thrives on implementing systems and software that boost efficiency and client satisfaction. One of the most rewarding parts of her work is seeing the emotional relief on clients' faces when they receive their settlement checks—a true reminder of why the work matters.

Outside of the office

Laurie is deeply committed to community development. She and Marty are proud supporters of downtown revitalization in Springfield, Illinois, where they’ve lived for over 40 years and raised their family. She enjoys boating in the summer, walking their 95-pound Bernedoodle, Murf, and spending time with their three adult children, who now live in New York City, St. Paul, and Chicago.

An RN and biology graduate, Laurie Haxel continues to consult with pharmaceutical and biologic firms around the world, frequently traveling for work. When she’s not traveling, she loves catching up on The Daily podcast (produced by the New York Times, where her son is an editor).

    "Someone You Can Trust"
    Marty has always given me sound, pragmatic advice. Straightforward and honest opinions whether on a consult or a hire. Always puts the client first.
    - Bob P.
    "Great Attorney!"
    I've used Martin Haxel a couple of times over the years and I have found that each time he is very prompt about responding to my inquiry and is able to talk to me in terms that I can understand!
    - Cindy B.
    "I Highly Recommend!"
    Rarely do you meet an attorney who is kind but also aggressive. Marty fights to maximize the value of each personal injury case.
    - Craig S.
    "5 Stars"
    He was thorough and did not allow me to be taken advantage of by the employer's insurance
    - Ruby A.
    "Saved The Day"
    He communicated every action/communication immediately - which was in great contrast to the previous attorneys who infrequently returned my calls. I was very impressed with both his tenacity and communication skills.
    - John S.
    "Marty was great to work with!"
    He kept in communication and made the process as stress-free as possible. Hopefully I never need a personal injury attorney again, but if I do, I wouldn't hesitate to hire Marty.
    - Kristi D.
    "Made Everything Easy for Me"
    His assistant was very pleasant and helpful as well. If he wasn't available when I called and left a message he was always prompt to respond to my messages and emails. I would highly recommend him to anyone who can use his skills!
    - David N.
    "Thank you, Martin."
    When I got injured, I knew I was going to be out of work. I knew I was going to be struggling with my family. I was really worried about the direction my life had turned towards. If I hadn't contacted Martin Haxel. I would still be fighting to get what I deserved. What was owed to me. Mr. Haxel however, stayed with me. He told me the truth. He didn't lie, or manipulate anything. He was honest and informative. He was the hope I didn't have at that time. He struggled with me to get all of it resolved. He did it with integrity, honesty, and a sincere understanding of what I was going through. To anyone considering having Mr. Haxel represent them in similar situations...I would say, you couldn't pick a better person. He's a great lawyer. He does great work. He's a nice person with a lot of experience in this field. If there's anyone you can turn to when no one will listen or even attempt to help you do what is right...Mr. Haxel is the one. I can't say enough good things about him. Now that my case is settled thanks to his work, I'm going to miss having someone having my back. He's a good man and I hope he feels good about what he's done when he lays down to sleep and reflects on his days, weeks, months, and years. People like him, give people hope, and faith that there are good people still roaming around this crazy thing called life. Martin, thank you. You're a beast.
