The only attorney you want representing you!

Attorney Popovitch is the only attorney you want representing you. Her drive, determination, and knowledge of case law are unmatched. She will keep you fully informed and educated throughout your entire litigation. Attorney Popovitch was able to rectify two huge mistakes my previous counsel allowe...d me to make, waiving child support and agreeing to shared physical custody. With Lauren in my corner fighting the fight, and never backing down, my children now receive financial support and have a custody agreement that mirrors our parenting schedule. Stop searching and call her today, you will not be disappointed!

There is none like her!

My heart is filled with so much gratitude for Lauren's support and representation during this season of my life. I thought I had a slam dunk of a case, with mounds of emails and text messages proving my case - so on day one of my case I didnt have an attorney to represent me. This was the worse ...idea of a lifetime. I left feeling as though I was a horrible person for trying to protect my child from his fathers dangerous lifestyle. I felt attacked and bullied by the "mediator" that was in charge of our case that day. My mind was boggled. How could they be so lenient on someone who was clearly not being responsible and was putting his son in danger? I didn't want to get an attorney but if I had to do it, it was going to be the absolute best attorney. I can be the peaceful advocate, who prefers not to fight so I knew I needed someone who was strong, confident and determined to fight through to the end. I had researched family attorneys on and off for years because I knew most likely I would need one. Shortly after my first court date, I began researching again and this angel of an attorney appeared. I read the reviews and saw her accolades and I knew I wanted her to be my attorney. The moment I reached out to her I felt extremely comfortable, like I was speaking to a really good friend who just happened to be a very savvy and passionate attorney! This relationship remained consistent as the case went on. Lauren is dedicated not only to her craft but to her clients, each as individuals. She works swiftly, strategically and is always aware of her time (my money) and faught for me and the best interest of my family. It was expensive, but she is worth every pretty penny! There were times that I was discouraged and frustrated because let's face it, going to court is draining and emotionally exhausting but she kept encouraging and reminding me that everything was going to be ok. She is a straight shooting - no nonsense kind of attorney. I always knew what to expect and felt protected every step of the way. She will seriously not stop fighting for you! I kept thinking to myself, "she is a little pit bull", because she would just not give up and would not let anyone bully her or me! I am so glad that I found Lauren! I was so confident in her and what she was going to accomplish, that I referred a good friend to her before my case was even closed. She is absolutely phenomenal and was able to provide me with everything that I needed to win my case and protect my son, which was my ultimate goal. Thank you Lauren! You are VERY much appreciated!!! No words can express my gratitude for everything that you did!

Assertive, knowledgeable and a ball of fire!

I have nothing but positive things to say about Lauren's representation during my child custody battle! From the beginning she made me feel confident in my decisions and fought for what was in the best interest of my child. I felt my situation was unique and would require some difficult legal legwork... to settle in my favor. Lauren made the entire process a breeze from my end. She devoted the time and energy my case deserved and left no stone unturned. Whether via phone, text or email Lauren was readily available when I had questions or concerns. Lauren worked hard to achieve my desired results and I have zero complaints on her exceptional representation. During our time together I discovered she is a wonderful person at heart and packs quite the punch as an attorney! You'll want her on your side in the courtroom!

Compassionate Piranha!!!

I interviewed several attorney's before I met Lauren Popovitch. I knew what I was up against, the battle was not going to be easy. I was a single father of three who's soon to be ex wife was not done wreaking havoc! I needed someone who was going to stand by my side and fight for me and my children! ...When I met Lauren, we had brief conversation that within minutes left me feeling confident that she was the right one for me! I left her office feeling strong, and secure that I was going to "WIN" this fight. I should mention, this was a long term marriage, I had everything to lose. Massachusetts typically leans towards "protecting the woman" and often times has no regard the father, his rights, or what might be best for the children. In this particular situation, my children were left with me to fend for, left with me to protect, and it was Lauren who was going to help me! During my time with Lauren, we spent hours upon hours discussing really difficult subject matter. I tend to be a very private person, sharing personal details of my life was incredibly difficult for me. Some of the things we discussed were embarrassing and hurtful. She alwasy put me at ease. She ultimately took this case, MY case, personally. She wouldn't stop! She was so attentive to me, that there were times when I thought I was her only client! She would call ME?! She worked harder for me than any other attorney could or would have! In the end, as a direct result of Lauren's efforts, I was able to keep my home, my children were able to continue to flourish in the community in which they were raised, and not forced to leave their home. I have been able to keep my business, and I know that because of Lauren and her efforts, I will be able to maintain my financial security as I move forward towards the future. Here's the truth... At the end of the day, you want, and need someone who will fight for you as if it's THEIR fight, as though it's personal, someone with heart and conviction, someone who won't quit... That is Lauren Popovitch. I would recommend Lauren to anyone who needs a strong, compassionate attorney who thinks outside of the box and never quits! I could not have done this without her! This divorce was the most difficult thing I have ever had to endure! As a man in my mid 40's, I've always done things on my own, I've always taken care of my own issues. This experience was a humbling one for me and Lauren made getting through this possible. I wouldn't wish divorce upon anyone, but if you have to go through it, this is the woman you want standing by your side.

Excellent Attorney

I hired Lauren as my Divorce Attorney. I was very pleased and amazed by her enthusiasm and her hard working ethics. Often she would worked late with me and around my schedule just to make sure I am "not being left out and that she is on top of the case". Lauren is exceptionally clever, resourceful ...and a hard fighter. Throughout my complicated and stressful process, Lauren remained caring and concerned and continued fighting diligently on my case. And making sure that the best interest of myself and my children were being met and that we were protected and all issues covered. She listened attentively to my priorities and needs and used her knowledge and expertise of the law to answered all my worries putting me at ease. No doubt, Lauren is an excellent attorney that "provides confidence and peace of mind" for her clients. And YES, I would recommend Lauren to all my friends.
