Quick and Communicative

Lauren swooped in to represent me in reviewing our prenuptial agreement at very short notice. She looked over it the night she got it and provided revisions and guidance the very next morning. Her correspondence was clear and efficient. Thanks Lauren!

We'd Give Lauren 10 Stars If We Could

If we could give Lauren H. Kane 10 stars, we would!! We would recommend Lauren for any legal matter, but particularly family law as she was instrumental in winning our custody case. I had two bad experiences with two NJ lawyers that took my money and got me nowhere, so I was somewhat skeptical. Howev...er, Lauren made it look easy and confirmed the fact that I was taken advantage of by the other two lawyers. Lauren had my back from the beginning and never stopped fighting for our cause …. returning my son to our custody. She is a fireball in court ….. exactly what we needed! Our case was being handled in NJ, yet my husband and I live in Maine. That didn’t matter, Lauren was very understanding, gathered and researched all information/documentation I sent, she explained details to us, she kept us informed on developments, stood up for us, explained things to us, researched case law, prepared exceptional court documents……very thorough, very professional and very successful!!! I can honestly say we looked good in court! She was worth every penny we spent on her services! And we were so blessed with the positive results Lauren gained for us. We cannot thank her more!!! Again, we would recommend to anyone in the PA/NJ area with any legal problems to give Lauren H. Kane a call.

Experienced Fighter For What is Right!

My nephew's son was taken into DHS custody two years ago when the boy's mother failed to adequately care for him. Despite having custody of another child and having done nothing wrong to prevent my nephew from gaining custody, endless, non-productive court hearings ensued with a prior attorney which... led to much anger and frustration. We searched for a replacement attorney who would cut through the bureaucratic and judicial nightmare to help my nephew gain custody of his son. We found Lauren in a website search. References like this one convinced us she was the attorney we wanted and after an initial interview, where Lauren showed her compassion, understanding and laid out a plan to wrest custody of our child from DHS - we knew she was the attorney we needed/wanted - and she was! From the start, she promised she would get my nephew's son back for him as soon as possible. She fought hard for us, keeping us apprised of her progress as well as being open to our suggestions and listening to our comments and frustrations. She was our guide through this emotionally charged time, which wasn't always easy, and she did as she promised - obtained a court order returning physical and legal custody of his son to my nephew! If you are looking for someone with experience in family matters, who is caring, compassionate, knowledgeable - and a fighter for your cause - you want Lauren Kane! I recommend her to you without reservation!

Lauren H. Kane, a client advocate

The decision to end my marriage after 25 years was mentally and emotionally challenging and frightening, as it was occurring at a time when I had envisioned my now ex husband and I would be enmeshed in renewing our initial attraction, having now approached that empty nest reality. At our first me...eting, Lauren was personable and engaging as she listened to my circumstances and concerns and informed me of the legal options she could pursue to best represent me. Her expertise and knowledge provided me with a greater appreciation for all of the work required for her to do while handling my case. Over a nearly two year period, I was in constant contact as legal deadlines and filings were handled by Lauren, with all obligations met on time. As a personal advocate that cares for and seeks the best outcomes for her clients, Lauren H. Kane can be relied upon to do her best to meet that expectation.

Exceptional, Honest, and caring for her clients well being.

There are good attorneys and bad attorneys and Lauren Kane is none of the above. Lauren without question is an exceptional attorney. My divorce took 5 years to complete due to a restraining order that was that was falsely filed and the lack of co-operation from the ex-wife. I was very afraid that I w...ould have a hard time hiring an honest and capable attorney to take my case due to the stigma attached to a domestic violence restraining order. She did not say "this is what we are going to do to get your out of this", instead she said "give me all the facts, a history of your marriage, along with documentation then we will decide if we will work together". Lauren believed in me when no one else would. I retained Lauren in July of 2012 and after 20 months of working together I can say without any reservation that she is the one I needed to get me through the before, during, and after, of my very difficult divorce. I have a disability that keeps me from operating a motor vehicle which makes it difficult and expensive to get around using a taxi cab. Lauren went out of her way to meet me at a restaurant near my home when we needed to meet face to face. That in itself says volumes about, not only her professionalism, but caring about her client’s well being. She has put in hours for me that I consider above and beyond the call of duty. At first when I didn’t hear from her for quite some time I became concerned as to what was happening. I called and she let me know that if she didn’t call things were A-OK because she didn’t want to add unwarranted time to my bill. She actually spent well over an hour with me and several of my family members and she did not charge me for the time. Lauren gave me my life back and I will never forget that. I am going to need an attorney again soon to finish up some after the fact issues of the divorce and I guarantee that Lauren H. Kane will be right there beside me.
