Posted by Maciej | May 07, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Knowledgeable and friendly

My wife and I are in our late thirties and both busy working professionals. We are new parents to an amazing little girl who means the world to us. Shortly after her birth we quickly realized how unprepared we are for her future in terms of planning OUR future. We researched estate planning law fi...rms and attorneys in Los Angeles where we live and found quite a few options. We spoke to a handful about our situation, explained where we are in life and seemingly got some good recommendations from each. But one of them stood out and that was Lauren Mackay. My wife and I agreed after our consultation with Lauren that we should entrust our estate planning to her. In speaking with Lauren you can tell she was very knowledgeable and very caring — she had our best interest, and ultimately the best interest of our child, in mind. After a follow up meeting and in getting some more information from us, we had Lauren draft our Will to start. It was a no brainer and she made the process easy and explained all of our options clearly. We will continue to work with Lauren on all of our estate planning to make sure our daughter (and possibly some siblings!) have it better than how me and my wife had it — that’s what it’s all about, isn’t it?

"Lauren is a rare talent, who combines a stellar track record of winning with tremendous client care. Having witnessed her courtroom delivery up close and in person, I can say that she is a highly skilled trial lawyer and a formidable opponent for anyone. And with her deep strategic thinking and persistent attentiveness outside the courtroom, she is the kind of lawyer everyone wants on his or her side."

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.
