Client driven; professional

Lauren is effective because she combines compassion with power. Her knowledge of what to do and ability to strategize meant that she did not rush through my case for her easy profit. She worked hard for ME, not for her firm or for herself. Lauren always had my interests in mind and negotiated a se...ttlement beyond what I had hoped for. Lauren is not afraid to take the case to trial because she’s talented. This helps bring in a fair settlement. She does not inflate her settlement expectations with a sales technique you see in commercials. She is fair and reasonable with her settlement expectations and assertive in achieving these expectations. In spite of my lack of understanding of how the legal process works, she never spoke condescendingly to me. She made my small case feel as important as a million dollar settlement. She took her time with my questions and answered the same question the third time with as much clarity, patience, and detail as she answered it the first time. Lauren returned my emails and calls promptly because she treated me as equally important as the firm’s big clients. She is intelligent, competent, and dedicated. With Lauren, I never felt alone or vulnerable. I had a savvy ally.

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.
