You are looking for https://github.com/whipsterCZ/laravel-ajax

It does exactly what you want and much more!

sending forms via ajax is simple like this - no configuration needed

HTML

<form action="" class="ajax">...</form>

Controller

public function update(ClientRequest $request, Client $client)
{
    $client->update($request->all());
    $request->session()->flash('success', 'Client has been updated.');

    return \Ajax::redirect(route('clients.index'));
}

It also validate form (through custom FormRequest) and shows errors (in errorBag or directly above inputs)
