Great law firm.
My son needed an attorney for court and they assigned this firm. They have been super helpful and have done a great job for him. He has a criminal case and they represented him, which gave him the best outcome he could have had. Thank You, Your Firm has been a lifesaver.

Lauren is brilliant!
I hired Lauren to help with my divorce process. She was professional, extremely kind, efficient, and explained everything clearly that I needed to know. She also gave great advice and was a friend during such a difficult time. I appreciate Lauren immensely and I will definitely hire her again!

Got My DUI Dismissed- Great Lawyer
Lauren was an amazing guide and wealth of knowledge when it came to my DUI. She helped me understand my options, what paths we could take, and how to pick the best one. She was very responsive and went above and beyond. I was charged with a DUI and ended up with only a traffic offense. Kept my license the whole time. Hire her... you will not be sorry.

Thank you, Lauren
I came to Lauren desperate and facing felony charges. My family and I were pleasantly reassured by her knowledge, experience, and genuine concern during our initial consultation. She immediately developed a plan of action which would soon result in the dismissal of ALL charges. Lauren’s legal prowess is unmatched and I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of legal representation. Respectfully, A Grateful Client

Compassionate, Knowledgeable, and Communicative.
When I was I was going through a tough time in my life Ms.Tignor came and saved the day! She is very knowledgeable and help me get through a case that I thought was going to be against me 100% due to a system that isn’t all the way fair. Ms.Tignor understood that I had a baby girl to live for and take care of, so every step of the way she made sure to communicate and fight for my rights. Thank you Ms.Tignor for being all of that and more! I highly recommend hiring Ms.Tignor if you want someone that know the law!

Saved my life
I was caught in a bad situation with an unlawful arrest and Lauren helped me navigate the legal system and contact the people I need during this difficult time. I never felt so respected by an attorney. She spoke to me and treated me with respect even though I was charged with a serious felony. Thanks Lauren you definitely stepped up for me.

Nobody likes to answer the phone.
I’ve tried contacting this office the past two weeks with no answer. Not even worth it - I wouldn’t try to contact this firm
