Best family law attorney in Orange County, CA

Lauren Mullee was very attentive, responsive, and respectful. She understood my situation and my goals. She advised me on the best course of action regarding issues such as division of assets & debts. She also represented me in court and advocated for my rights and interests. Her staff was profession...al and attentive. The staff also put in a lot of effort to meet your expectations. They are friendly, helpful and attentive. You'll feel like you're in good hands with them. Lauren Mullee’s firm is a superb family law attorney in southern California.

Help when you need it

When I started the divorce process, I was referred to Lauren by a friend. After speaking to her, she made me feel better about the process and explained what the process would be like. At the time, I thought I could have navigated the process myself but soon realized I needed a professional to guide ...me and a firm to stand with me. The process was emotional at times but Lauren was able to keep me on track with the goals we had set out at the beginning and always kept me informed, up to date and balanced. If not for her kindness and professionalism, I believe that the process would have been much more difficult. I would recommend her to anyone that has to go through the divorce process as I know that she would represent them with the same professionalism that she provided me.

Someone I Trust in Difficult Times

I never wish for anyone to need a divorce/family lawyer, it's such an incredibly trying time for everyone involved. For those that are going through the process, what matters most is having a lawyer that you can always trust to act in you and your family's best interest. Lauren was exactly that, some...one who I could trust to always act in our own interest rather than what might make for more billable hours. On multiple occassions, Lauren advised courses and paths that were ideal for me and my children, despite it being less financially rewarding for her firm. Combined with her compassion and knowledge of law, this makes for a family lawyer that I truly support and recommend to anyone going through such a difficult process.

Highly personable and professional attorney

Lauren was a great attorney and helped me through my divorce. My ex was extremely difficult during the process and Lauren made things as easy as possible for me. She always kept me informed of what options I had as well as being transparent. Would recommend to friends and family.

Client

I was Lauren's client for several years. I had a long, drawn out complicated divorce situation. She was always on top of my case. She has integrity, is well versed in family law, and was conscientious about not overworking my case causing extra billing. On top of that, she is a kind and respectful pe...rson! I would highly recommend Lauren Mullee if you need a Family Law attorney. Sven Buncher, her partner, also worked on my case. He is also an excellent attorney and will get your case settled.

"Lauren is a very aggressive litigator working at a law firm with sufficient resources to facilitate her being as great as she can be. Too many times great litigators work at law offices too cheap to follow through with the litigator's efforts. Lauren's firm knows her worth and puts everything behind her so she can represent her clients as best as they can be represented."
