Ever since graduating from Touro Law School in 2004, Loren's passion for helping people has led her to focus her law practice exclusively on divorce and family law. This focus enables her to provide the highest level of expertise and care for her clients during what will likely be one of the most difficult periods of their lives. From an initial divorce filing all the way through to the final property settlement agreement, Loren's work ethic, empathy, and professionalism has guided scores of clients to a satisfying result.
Loren's care for others is further exemplified by the hundreds of hours of pro bono work she has done for the veteran community of New Jersey and for women who find themselves in abusive relationships with nowhere to turn. She believes that giving back to the community is an obligation on a human level and a cornerstone of her professional career as an officer of the courts.
Loren currently resides in Bergen County with her husband, daughter and their dog.

Loren is thorough, honest and a tough advocate. I have had the pleasure of litigating against her and working with her as a co-counsel. she is bright, honest and well prepared. An excellent attorney with a great deal of compassion. I would highly endorse Loren.
"I endorse this lawyer. Loren is an aggressive litigator. She represents her client vigorously yet works hard to reach reasonable settlements."
"I endorse this lawyer. I was opposing counsel on a highly contentious divorce case with Loren. She was a ferocious advocate for her client, yet remained professional and reasonable throughout the process. I would highly recommend Loren as a family law attorney, and will refer cases to her in Northern New Jersey."
"Loren has the unique ability to be gentle and comforting with clients, confident and knowledgeable before the court and aggressive and determined with adversaries. She is an extremely talented attorney and you would be in great hands with her by your side. I strongly endorse this lawyer."
"Loren is compassionate, hard working, intelligent and diligent. She is a seasoned matrimonial attorney who goes above and beyond to achieve the best results for each and every one of her clients. I highly recommend her."
"I've known Loren professionally for many years and have had her on the other side of cases. I can confidently say that she genuinely cares about her clients and is a fierce advocate both inside and outside the courtroom. If you have a family law issue, you will be in good hands with Loren."
