Would recommend 100 times over

Lauren was alway in contact via email and was promt on my court dates. She made sure she knew exactly what I wanted yet also took the time it ensure that I had a realistic understanding of what to expect going in. I felt she had a great understanding of the law in regards to my case. With Lauren as m...y lawyer I never felt uncomfortable or unsure of what the outcome of my custody case would be.

Highly recommend!

Ms. Friend represented me during my divorce. She was always professional, courteous, and kept in constant contact with me. Going through a divorce was a trying time for my children and me but having Ms.Friend by my side the entire way made it easier. The fact that she took the time to truly get to kn...ow me and the situation and I wasn't just some person getting divorced meant the world to me. I highly recommend Ms. Friend to anyone who is seeking a knowledgeable and efficient attorney.

"Last Name Says It All"

I retained Lauren Friend as my divorce attorney. Her last name says it all! From day one she never made me feel like a client but rather a friend. No matter how you slice it, divorce is a nightmare but Lauren was the best part of my experience! She is extremely professional and very knowledgable ...of the law which kept me at ease throughout the hardest time of my life! She truly is an amazing lawyer and made me feel like my case was the only case she was working on! Still to this day we stay in contact whether it's Lauren checking in on me or me just sending a text to say hello!
