The Lawyer YOU want in YOUR Corner Fighting for YOU

If you are looking for a Divorce Attorney, please read my review. Lauren Popovitch will take the time to hear your full story, she doesn't yes you to death and give you unrealistic expectations, she listens and then tells you exactly what her strategy is and how we are going to execute it to ...get a favorable outcome. She is with you every step of the way, she does the research, she comes well prepared for court and she will be extremely blunt with you when she has to be. Her firm is also client focused and ready to explain things when I had questions along the way. Let's face it, no one ever thinks their marriage will end in divorce, I sure didn't. However, when it happened, I did my research and called many attorneys. When I was ready to divorce, Lauren was my first choice and she hit the ground prepared and ready to advocate for and defend me. I recommend Popovitch Law all the time to people who ask me (and sometimes people who don't). I always say, Lauren and her firm are the ones you need in your corner. They come prepared every time and fight to get you the very best outcome.

Trustworthy and straight to the center of the issue

I am so glad that I hired Lauren. It took me a long time to decide to hire a divorce lawyer. I heard and have seen other lawyers who always put their payments in the first place. But Lauren and her office are NOT like that at all. My ex-husband was very manipulative. He took most of our money and bra...inwashed me that he had the right to do so. Lauren pulled me out of the trap and made me realize that I could and should get those money back. She went over my cases carefully and designed the best plan for me. She patiently explained all the details to me and made sure I knew what was going to happen next. I feel very comfortable working with her. Lauren is a very reliable and trustworthy attorney. Hire her if you want to have your case solved quickly, get the most satisfying results and not waste a ton of money.

Best Family Law Attorney in Boston!

I interviewed three attorney’s before deciding to retain Lauren. Based on my experience there is no better family law attorney in Boston. Lauren always kept me focused on the task at hand, provided me with support and was in constant contact with me through the whole process (which was complicated a...t times). Lauren’s court demeanor was outstanding and I was very satisfied with the final results. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone who needs expert legal advice.

Fiercest Advocate I Could Have Asked For! Best Trial Attorney Out There

I worked with Lauren for over two and a half years, and my case eventually went to trial. I don't think I could've gotten through the whole ordeal without her as my attorney. Despite how terrible the circumstances were, choosing Lauren to represent me was one of the best decisions I've ever made in m...y life. To start, the way that Lauren interacts with her clients is just one of the many reasons that she is an amazing attorney-- she is extremely compassionate, unbelievably caring, and is super responsive to her clients. It is quite apparent that she becomes personally invested in your case, and you will never doubt that she will do everything possible to get you and your family the best possible outcome. If you want an attorney that you can trust, look no further. She will have your back, and she will do everything she can to help you. She was always available to answer questions, to talk me through things, or to collaborate. Unlike how it sounds with many other attorneys, you work together with Lauren. As for how Lauren is in the courtroom, you DO NOT want her on the opposing side. She is absolutely incredible in the courtroom! She is poised, extraordinarily thorough, and she will know your case inside out. Throughout our many court appearances together, I was always so impressed with how Lauren handled whatever came our way. She puts a great deal of effort into every piece of paperwork submitted to the court, and truly puts other attorneys' efforts to shame. The difference between Lauren's representation and the other lawyers that I observed in court was night and day. Lauren also has an extensive knowledge of case law, which was weaved into every motion, argument, and pleading we submitted to the court. Lauren attempted to facilitate a reasonable settlement several times throughout the case, but the other side wouldn't budge. As such, Lauren was tough where we needed to be and didn't back down, and acted as the best advocate I could have asked for. As far as billing, everyone knows that divorce/custody/litigation is extremely expensive. Lauren has been above and beyond in terms of fairness. She has always worked with me around my budget, and her billing is EXTREMELY honest and transparent. All in all, I can't express how much I appreciate all the work that Lauren has done for myself and my child, and couldn't recommend her more highly. I can confidently say that she is probably of the very best lawyers in the Northeast, and she's just an absolute rockstar at what she does. I feel incredibly lucky that I found her, and working with her was one of the brightest spots in a dark period of time. You will never doubt her integrity or capability, and she will be your biggest supporter.

Toughest Family Lawyer

If you want to give yourself the very best chance of prevailing in court, then hire Attorney Popovitch. I’ve been in an out of Middlesex family court multiple times over the last 20 years for divorce proceedings, custody and support issues, and various cross complaints for contempt. I wasted tens... of thousands of dollars on different attorneys who put forth a pro forma effort. I also represented myself pro se, and didn’t do much worse. Recently, my ex returned for a sizable, last-gasp money grab, so I decided I needed to find intelligent and aggressive representation. After scouring internet reviews, I contacted Attorney Popovitch. Turned out to best decision I ever made. Attorney Popovitch saw me within days for an initial consultation. She poured over my documents like a physician in triage, and quickly zeroed in on the relevant case law among the stacks of binders marked with post-it notes covering her desk. Her initial assessment of the strength of my case was ultimately borne out in the final court judgment. You will be hard-pressed to find a more zealous attorney to represent your interests. Indeed, the sweat was literally pouring off opposing counsel during our hearing. She is also scrupulously frank, so expect to hear the hard truth if you don’t have a case. She is extremely focused and cost-conscious, so does not waste any time or money. Another advantage of retaining Attorney Popovitch is that she is intimately familiar with the Middlesex court. She is a fierce -- no ferocious -- advocate who knows her stuff inside and out.
