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.

Couldn’t have chosen a better divorce attorney!

I hired Lauren after going through a difficult mediation process that left me at a disadvantage. Since it wasn’t legally binding the agreement was simply ignored, putting me at risk of becoming a “summer vacation dad”. I was hesitant about taking a lawyer because I worried too much about costs and t...ime spent. Looking back, it was the mediation that was a waste of time and money while Lauren was worth every penny I spent. Lauren pursued an energetic and aggressive strategy right to the end that proved absolutely effective, and I got all I wanted- a fair agreement equally splitting both parenting time and the financial burden. Lauren has a persistent, assertive style but also knows when its time to compromise and move forward. She kept me fully informed throughout the process, I always had a clear picture of where things stand and what the strategy is. She was always a few steps ahead in planning. Lauren is always there for her clients, very focused and hard working. That translates to surprisingly reasonable costs, which was a pleasant surprise. Last but not least, her healthy sense of humor put a smile on my face during a difficult time! Thank you Lauren for your dedication, attention to details and strong backing through a challenging process! Thanks to you I can now look ahead with optimism and satisfaction to being a full parent to my kids!

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!

The Best!

I hired Lauren and this review is solely based on my personal experience. I wanted to hire a good lawyer who could efficiently help me with my divorce issues. Choosing the right lawyer was a challenge and it took me a long time to decide. I initially contacted Lauren after reading all the positiv...e reviews and a great deal of careful consideration. During the first consultation, I felt that she was the right person to represent me. She had the positive energy and strategic thinking. She was ready to fight for my divorce battle without settling for less, and I knew that I was making the right decision. She has been phenomenal since day one. She always kept me updated promptly with the progress and was quick to respond to my questions. She was accessible and easy to communicate. She has a great communication skill and a pleasant personality. The entire divorce process was extremely stressful but she always made sure that I was ok. Her genuine and fun personality made my days at the court much more enjoyable. The fee was expensive but the result I got was much more than I could ask for and I could not have done it without her. I am very happy that I hired Lauren and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a divorce lawyer, except my ex spouse.
