DUI's and DWI's are common. It is often hard to tell when one has reached the legal limit of .08. One sip can really make the difference. But, this area of the law is ever-changing and the rights of drivers are being protected now more than ever before. I thoroughly analyze your case, advise you of your options, and rigorously defend all kinds of DWI and DUI cases.

Reflections on Lauren Campoli's Competency as a Criminal Attorney

It was a pleasure working with Lauren. She is first rate in knowledge of criminal law. She is available most times of the day to answer questions and provide guidance. Additionally, she is personable, truthful and uses her expertise to negotiate/facilitate the best possible case outcome for the cl...ient in court. I highly recommend this lawyer.

Need efficiency, discretion, and a positive outcome? Look no further than Ms. Campoli.

I'm a busy professional with a public profile who was charged with excessive speed and facing a license suspension and driving misdemeanor (NOT a petty misdemeanor). I count myself as very lucky to have chosen Ms. Campoli to represent me. After fretting about my situation for some time, as soon as ...I made the decision to hire Ms. Campoli and I could see her dedication and professionalism I was able to relax. I could see that she was invested in my situation and that she would do everything she could on my behalf. I was able to trust her with this extremely important situation. I was not disappointed. She was ultra-prepared for the pretrial hearing. She already knew the issues the prosecutor would have and what decisions we would need to make, which took a lot of the stress out of the process. Ultimately, she was able to get, by far, the best outcome possible, which was very acceptable to me. The prosecutor even complemented her during the negotiation for her "persuasive argument". I don't particularly like paying attorneys but I had no problem at all paying Ms. Campoli for her services. It was a tremendous value. And she's a really nice person too.

Ms. Lauren Campoli really has a passion for her job.

Lauren helped me on my case recently and the outcome could not have been better. I am very grateful for her services and for her attentiveness. She was very straight forward with me and listened to everything I had to say. I would definitely recommend her to anyone currently dealing with a criminal c...ase.

CASE DISMISSED

I have recently hired Lauren to take on my case as I was being accused of 5th Degree Assault Charges. Lauren did everything in her power to make we welcome in her office, comfortable and confident in her ability to represent me. By keeping in touch regularly, diving deep into the details of the case... as well as providing me all the information in which she had discovered allowed me to give my utmost attention to the matter at hand. Needless to say her hard work paid off as my case was dismissed and I was exonerated from these charges. My greatest thanks goes out to Lauren Campoli as these charges have remained off of my record! Thanks again Lauren!

A ray of light in a terrible situation!

Being that I never had to hire a criminal lawyer before I did not know what to do or what to ask. I was blessed that the day I was given notice of my charges I happen to also receive a letter in the mail from Lauren stating her services and how she could help. That first night she scheduled a time wi...th me to discuss what I should look for in a lawyer even if I did not go with her. She also stressed that she would never tell me what I should do and would always list out all possible options. After that conversation I knew that this person had the best interests not only for me but for my family also. Even during this tough period with not only these legal issues but with family/medical issues she was there to help ensure I did not stress over the legal events. Anytime I made contact with her she was also responsive to my needs and took the time to understand what I had as questions. Not only through her duties as a lawyer but as a person she took the time to understand the case. All aspects which included technical and personalities were examined so that she could provide the highest quality and level of service. If she did not understand something she was not afraid to ask a question. Like wise if I had a question which she did not have an immediate answer on she stated that and researched the answer for me in a timely matter. I had the most overall positive outcome in this case that anyone could ask for and I know it was all due to her hard work and character not only professionally but as a person also.

"Lauren is one of the most passionate criminal defense attorneys out there. She brings this energy to each and every client she represents, whether they are charged with a minor traffic offense or a serious felony. She "gets it" about how much is on the line and won't cave and take the state's first offer like how so many attorneys will. She is not afraid to take a case to trial. Her attention to the seemingly minor issues and facts works to her clients' benefit. Her extensive trial experience allows her to easily and quickly assess any case. If I were ever charged with a crime, Lauren would be my first call."
