Professional and Knowledgeable

I hired Lauren shortly before my court date and it turned out to be one of the smartest decisions I’ve made as she was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. Even with the limited amount of time she was given, she quickly familiarized herself with my case and took the time to explain what to expe...ct in court. Having her on my side when I walked into the court room took a massive weight off of my shoulders. From the moment I hired her I had no doubt she had everything under control and that she would do everything in her power to give me the best defense possible.

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.
