Laurie Mullen Top Attorney.

I hired Laurie to handle my divorce case. Laurie was highly recommended and exceeded my expectations. Laurie’s knowledge of the fine technical legalities surrounding all aspects of the divorce agreement is beyond reproach. In addition to legal expertise, Laurie is extremely proficient at cost control.... I highly recommend Laurie!

We are so appreciative that Laurie represented our daughter!

When your child undergoes an emotionally challenging ordeal such as a divorce, parents often experience a sense of helplessness. In our case it was the hope that our daughter would be represented by competent counsel exhibiting tenacity when required yet empathy and compassion when warranted. We were... extremely fortunate when Laurie Mullen was recommended to us. During our initial consultation, she alleviated much of our anxiety and we were made confident she would represent our daughter’s best interests. Throughout this overwhelming process she was both professional and tenacious in her efforts and supportive as family in her demeanor. As parents we are profoundly grateful for her expertise and guidance in support of our daughter. Due to her proficiency in family law and her temperament in negotiations in this recent domestic matter, we enthusiastically and without reservation recommend the law office of Laurie P. Mullen Esq.

Clear, honest, and fair.

Laurie was open and honest about what to expect from day one. I fully understood what was expected of me moving through the process of divorce. She fully recognizes that it is so difficult for people to travel this road but never let me get stuck. She provided solid guidance but left the decision-m...aking to me. When I was making decisions that may not be the best for me in the long run she was clear that I could do that but also outlined the impact those decisions might have. Laurie was also very respectful of coming at this in a collaborative and non-confrontational manner with my ex and their lawyer. I was very concerned about drama and this manner decreased the risk of that. (she was very well prepared to stand up and move to litigation and press some points should it have become necessary) Can't express how grateful I am to her.
