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

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 licens...e 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 prowe...ss is unmatched and I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of legal representation. Respectfully, A Grateful Client

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.
