This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Lori is absolutely the BEST!!

Lori Becker is a consummate Professional; a Phenomenal Attorney and just a GREAT person to have on your side!! She is very smart, wise, incredibly knowledgeable of her profession, extremely skillful at negotiations, and has a hugely compassionate heart. She is not judgmental. She has Amazing Grace & ...Severe Mercy and patience for her clients. Lori Becker is passionate about equitable outcomes and solutions in divorces. She knows that no one got married hoping for a divorce. But divorces still obviously happen. Lori fought for what really mattered: my daughter!! There are three types of negotiators: the Competitive (they have to win & you have to lose); the Conquered (one who gets run over and cannot or will not fight for their clients); And then there is Lori, The Collaborative One (she reaches mutually satisfactory outcomes while not exploiting either side). Lori Becker is definitely a Collaborative Attorney. She gets win-win results. She cares about her clients and mutually satisfactory outcomes in delicate situations. I hope I never have to use her services again because divorce is traumatizing. But If I do marry again, She will still be my attorney and now my friend also.

No Drama

I will forever be grateful for Lori Becker. She was able to get what could’ve been a very volatile divorce done peacefully and quickly. Not to mention it was a considerable savings not to have battling attorneys. I never would have dreamt things could have been done so quickly and thoroughly. I liter...ally tell everyone to see her if they want things done right.

Thank you, Lori Becker

Lori Becker and the Collaborative Divorce Method helped me focus on what was really important . . . my children. I had never heard of this divorce method prior to meeting Lori. I am extremely happy with the results.

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.
