Difficult divorce handled with perfection

Lauren is an outstanding attorney. She was my voice when I did not have one. Her compassion and professionalism exceeded my expectations. I had no idea what was ahead of me and she was there every step of the way. Lauren had my best interests at all times, prompt and open for all calls and quick u...pdates and worked through all of my many questions and issues on my case. She put my mind at ease numerous times throughout my difficult divorce. I would highly recommend Lauren Youngman for your family law attorney.

All rise for Lauren!!

I don't even know where to start... Lauren has not only managed for me and my (equally stubborn) ex to settle out of court. She has also been absolutely AMAZING throughout the whole process. To be honest I have no words to describe how much she has helped me. She is not just a great, competent lawyer... with an extremely high level of professionalism -she is also genuine, great person. Just the kind of person you want by your side dealing with important issues in your life. Even though my divorce and even more so the child support was messed up when I first met Lauren, she instantly got the picture. She has handled the somewhat complicated matter efficiently and also had the needed knowledge of international law as well. All in all, Lauren has always been completely on top of things and I just feel so grateful to have met her. We all know that lawyers in this city can be a piece of work and maybe even add to the drama - and make the bills add up too. So to meet someone as genuine, knowledgable and reasonable as Lauren has been a true blessing. If only I had met her sooner!

Highly Recommended Lawyer

Truly an amazing team of lawyers! I worked with Lauren on a family law case, but had a little bit of help from Ron and Barbara as well. Lauren was fantastic to work with. It was not an easy or pleasant process to go through, but Lauren was right there with me the whole time. She worked so hard and wa...s always on top of things and managed to relieve a huge amount of stress for me during the whole process. Not only is she great at her job, but you really feel like she cares, and that she was doing everything in her power to achieve the best outcome for me and my family.

My legal experience? Excellent!

Recently I needed to dissolve a Domestic Partnership. I thought the process would be simple and something I could do with a little online help. I quickly found that it isn’t simple and is the same as a full-on divorce. I needed legal counsel. Through my employer benefits services, I was referred t...o the offices of Youngman Reitshtein, PLC. On my very first phone call to the office, I talked to Lauren Youngman, Esq. On that first call, Lauren talked me through the process, explaining how a divorce happens for both parties and what I would need to provide for all of the court filings. Her ease of conversation and honest approach on that call told me that she would be a great person with which to work. I scheduled a meeting and had no reservations to engage her legal services. Even a simple divorce takes time and patience; Lauren made it simple, convenient and easy. She was always available to talk with me or email me – basically always available to answer questions and make recommendations. When you think about a legal service, the fear of cost is always there. The main cause of that angst for me comes from me needing to feel that I am getting my money’s worth. With Lauren, I never felt the need to question anything on the financial side of things. She was above board, transparent and conducted our business with integrity, communication and smarts. Lauren always approached our business with professionalism yet never had a moment without personality. Doing business with someone you like and enjoy is by far, a better experience. Business relationships depend on setting and understanding expectations. From day one, Lauren was exceptional in this area. Based on my needs, Lauren Youngman, Esq., provided to me exactly what I needed, what I wanted and how I wanted it to happen. And because of this, I do not hesitate to endorse her. Thank you, Lauren

Excellent Lawyer

I had the pleasure of working with Lauren on a very complicated and unique family case that dated back years. From the first day I met with Lauren and Ron they were able to help me understand all my rights. They both seem very knowledgeable on Family Law and Paternity so I immediately decided to ...hire them to represent me and I’m happy to say I made the right choice. Lauren was also on top of my case and kept me updated through the entire process. I’m happy to say that against all odds we came up on top. I would highly recommend Lauren and her team!

"I endorse this lawyer without any hesitation! Lauren practices law from the heart. She is a very bright and gifted litigator. She genuinely cares for her clients and doesn't quit until she explores every remote avenue that brings about the goal in mind. Lauren is dedicated and motivated by her passion for the law, as much as she is detail-oriented and thorough in her legal preparation. The courtroom is Lauren's element. I am lucky and honored to know her, and to have the opportunity to refer her to anyone seeking a great family law attorney, with a court presence, power of persuasion, energy and resourcefulness such as hers."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Lauren Youngman for a few years and highly recommend her for family law disputes. As a lawyer in a different practice area, I believe family law is incredibly difficult because of how contentious and difficult the cases and parties may be and I would and have referred Lauren on many occasions and will do so in the future."
