Prepared, Punctual and Poised

Lauren came prepared with the information needed to help me get through a rough spot in post-divorce proceedings. Even when I lost my cool, she remained poised and focused on getting the best possible outcome for me. She was always on time and ready for the work at hand. Her representation was sol...id and spot on for what was needed, and I appreciated having her in my corner.

Exceptional Legal Guidance and Support - Custody Success with Attorney Lauren

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lauren for a custody case regarding my daughter. As a father seeking rights, the situation was inherently complex, but Lauren navigated it with utmost professionalism and expertise. She was incredibly supportive, providing excellent advice and guidance thro...ughout the entire process. Her timely and wise counsel made a significant difference, leading to a satisfactory outcome that honored my father's rights. I am deeply grateful for Lauren's dedication and would highly recommend her legal services to anyone facing similar challenges.

Very knowledgeable, I highly recommend!

I hired Lauren after researching majority of attorneys in southeastern Wisconsin. I wanted to make sure I had the best lawyer I could find when it came to custody of my daughter. I can’t thank attorney Otte enough for the job she did and I’m extremely happy I found her! She’s incredibly knowledgeable... and stands her ground.

Outstanding caring lawyer

I have nothing but amazing things to write about Attorney Lauren Otte. I was going thru a divorce and wasn't sure where to turn. I had met with countless lawyers to try and find that one attorney I thought could represent me well and had my best interests at heart. I found that with Attorney Lauren ...Otte. She made sure I was aware of all my options and how things would proceed thru the entire process. If I had concerns or wanted her to be aware of information, she was extremely responsive in addressing my concerns, including late night weekend emails. Her utmost concern was making sure I was ok and would check in on me frequently to ensure I was ok throughout the entire life changing process. I would recommend her to anyone and should I ever need representation again regardless of the situation, Attorney Otte would be my first call. Going thru any type of legal matter can be overwhelming and stressful. Im so thankful that I came across Attorney Lauren Otte and she helped see me thru my entire process while making sure that I was physically and mentally safe and doing well. Between the atmosphere, individuals that work there and the awards this office and their attorneys have, it is clear that this is the best law firm and lawyers that you could have represent you.

Amazing Service

Lauren Otte is an amazing attorney who works quickly to resolve the matter at hand. I spoke with several attorneys who made my situation sound so complicated. When I explained my situation to Lauren she “quickly” understood my concern and offered a solution. Not only did she offer it, she executed th...e solution and quickly! I’m very happy with the results and how Lauren handled my case. I strongly recommend her to handle the “stress and emotion” involved at times. She’s very calm with amazing negotiating skills :) thank you Lauren!
