The BEST Attorney

I honestly cannot recommend Lauren Cohen enough. She is professional, knowledgeable, patient and she gets things done!! My husband used 3 lawyers previously regarding custody with his kids and he kept getting screwed over with the worst custody agreements. I am honestly so thankful that I found Laure...n. She was able to get summers 50/50 for us, all breaks 50/50 and many other dates added / rearranged that make more sense for the kids and us. Every time the other party tried to play games, Lauren shut it down so quick. It was so refreshing to finally have an attorney listen and hear the changes we want. Family court is absolutely terrible, especially when dealing with a high conflict narcissist but Lauren made it less stressful and fought for us, she fought for what was fair. We are just so thankful for her. Thank you, Lauren.

Trust her; one in a million divorce attorney

I’ve worked with several divorce attorneys in the past. I wish Lauren was the first and only. I am lucky she was the last. She has a beautiful heart and if very empathetic to the needs of the client. She brings a calm to the situation when I wanted to react in a storm to what my ex did/didn’t. She di...d not start unnecessary court petitions and litigations that would have increased my fees. She did not charge for every minute of every email and call as all others did. I actually don’t know how she financially survives with the little that she does charge. I have referred other clients to her and they adore her. After my divorce I had a very negative image of divorce attorneys in general as I felt that took years of my income with false reassurances and no results; she is the one in million that is actually in this practice for genuine reasons to help.

just hired lauren for complicated custody case

We started talking a month ago and I was amazed by her friendly but no nonsense approach to efficient litigation not wanting to waste a new clients time or money chasing dead ends. Very refreshing in a $6 billion dollar nationwide divorce industry dedicated most always at doing the exact opposite. ...Her sincerity and knowledge were a 10 to me and I'm very much looking forward to her help in saving my daughter's from a ugly situation where they are trapped.

Detail Oriented Family Lawyer

Lauren is an incredible family lawyer. She is very detail oriented and puts the extra time into all of her cases to ensure the best approach. Lauren is a great listener and was able to put me at ease throughout the process. She broke things down so I understood all aspects of my case. I never had an ...issue reaching Lauren. She made herself very available to me. Lauren was great as my case progressed and remained composed throughout.

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.
