Laurie was very up front and honest when reviewing my case. There were no surprises and all in all I was very satisfied with the outcome.

Laurie did a fantastic job! She was highly efficient and knowledgeable and helped make the entire divorce process as easy as possible. She uncovered potential problems and worked to eliminate unnecessary legal snafus. She was completely honest and straightforward with me. She was also detail-oriented and shed light on all of the proceedings. I knew exactly what to expect from the process which helped to make the experience much easier to deal with. I appreciate all of her knowledge and hard work and would highly recommend her!

We went to Laurie for a co-parent adoption and estate planning. Although she had never done that type of adoption before she was able to research how to do it. Everything went smoothly. She's also very nice and down to earth.

Laurie handled my divorce with complete professionalism. Her attitude, guidance, and knowledge helped make this difficult situation much easier. Laurie was not only able to negotiate a fare agreement, she also helped manage my stress with this life altering decision. I have worked with Laurie on a number of occasions since my divorce and not only do I have confidence in her professional advice she makes me feel like a friend. I highly recommend Laurie to anyone who is interested in a caring professional who will provide excellent guidance on the law.

She was very honest and understanding during this whole process. She gave me clear instructions on what I needed to provide her with to handle my case and exactly what would happen. She was very knowledgable in what she was doing. The advice and legal services that she did and explained were a great help when it came time to go to court. Everything was in layman's terms so you could understand what was going on and going to happen. She did an excellent job with my case, especially since I'd never been though this before. I would highly recommend her to anyone for any legal advice or service. She was outstanding in her service to me and only wish there were more like her.

I was referred to this attorney for my divorce by some friends. I already had a lawyer but I wasn't happy with him and I could never reach him. I really don't like lawyers but she turned me around. She was very easy to deal with and extremely responsive. My case was very difficult and went on for awhile. I was very impressed with her memory. I never had to repeat myself like with the other guy. She totally understood where I was coming from. I was very pleased with the outcome. My case did settle but it was because of all the hard work she did. It made my wife's lawyer look bad that we were so prepared.

Laurie Mullen represented me in my divorce from my husband. We have two young children, so she also represented my interests in the child custody part of the case. Laurie did a truly excellent job in helping me realize my ideal scenario (given the circumstances)--a 50-50 shared parenting, shared custody arrangement that does not require child support going in either direction. She remained assertive, thorough and very much on top of all developments from start to finish, always keeping me informed and helping to give me "reality checks" at difficult turns in the case. From start the finish, the case took 6 months--a fairly quick resolution as I understand it. Finally, Laurie was also easy to talk to, very good at explaining difficult concepts. I would enthusiastically hire her again for other types of family law matters.

I was served with divorce papers on Friday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend, and needed a good lawyer, fast. I visited a couple of law offices in the Taunton area, and as expected, I was told that the attorneys had left early for the holiday weekend. By evening time, I sent Laurie an email, not thinking that she would reply until the following Tuesday at the soonest, but to my surprise, she replied that evening, and we communicated several times by email over the weekend. She found some early-morning time to see me a few days after that, and really set a lot of my fears and nervousness to rest. She's very knowledgeable and professional but easy to talk to. She does not give the impression of being in a rush. It's not easy to make me laugh under the circumstances, but Laurie manages to offer some appropriate humor, which helps me to relax. My divorce process is still underway, and though this is an unpleasant chapter of my life, I feel assured that Laurie will do all that she can for my case. I am glad that she is representing me.

this lawyer represented me in my divorce. she was very good and handled everything professionally. she always emailed me back, even late at night. i would use her again. she did charge a consultation fee but she provided a lot of information at the consultation and she takes the money off the retainer fee.

Laurie Mullen had represented me in my child custody case. This was a complex case and I feel that she misrepresented me. This lawyer charges a 100 dollar consultation fee. Most lawyers are free. I thought i was getting a very good lawyer. Well all she did for me was make deals with my exhusbands lawyer. All togerther the cost was nearly 4000 dollars for two days in court. Now I am having problems again with my ex husband and i knew i needed another lawyer. So i met with a new lawyer and he seems that my lawyer had gone down the wrong route. Ms Mullen was very judgemental and condesending.
Lawyer’s Comment:
I am very sorry that you were not happy with the services you received. Many times in delicate family matters attorneys work together to come up with solutions that work best for your family rather then have a judge make decisions based on very little information. Clients must sign the agreements in court so I never make any "deals" that the client is not aware of or do not approve. I take great issue with being called "untrustworthy" as, after 23 years of practice, I do not have one blemish on my record. I care greatly about my clients and my reputation.
