Awesome! Sad we didn't go with her first!!!

She is VERY knowledgeable when it came to family law. The sad part? We spent almost $3,000 on Andrew Brown, with 30 years of experience and glowing reviews, yet, he failed us.

Divorce Attorney

Lauren is by far the best Divorce Attorney in York County. She is extremely knowledgable and professional. She cares about her clients and will defend them till the end. In my case, the opposing side was very unprofessional in handling things which caused a lot of problems and delays. Lauren, however..., kept everything in order and did everything that you would expect a well educated and down to earth attorney would do for their client. I would highly, highly recommend having Lauren Kearney as your attorney because she is by far the best there is. Thanks Lauren!!!

Divorce

Lauren Kearney is an organized, caring, hard working and very professional attorney. I hired Lauren for a divorce that ended up taking 4 years to complete. It was a long, drawn out experience and I believe that if it wasn't for Lauren it never would have been completed when it finally was. Having Lau...ren in my corner was something that I will forever be grateful for. Her communication is second to none and that was so important to me because of my situation. Lauren worked so hard in every aspect and I appreciated all that she did for me. Throughout the 4 years I was so glad that I hired Lauren. She never wavered, and kept me focused when at times that was very difficult. I have recommended Lauren to several people and I will continue to do so. In my opinion I don't think you could find a better family law attorney in the York area and I will always be thankful that I had Lauren working for me on something that was not easy in any way. York PA is lucky to have her!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
