Lorin Bruce Blum

Lorin Blum did a superb job of representing me in my dissolution. Lorin understands that the goal is to bring the process to conclusion sooner rather than later. He understands how to negotiate realistic settlements and prefers to do so where possible, but is highly capable of litigating if the oth...er side is unreasonable. Faced with false accusations of theft, Lorin skillfully presented evidence of my innocence to the Court, effectively discrediting my ex-wife's CPA. The result was extremely favorable and led to a settlement and an end to the process. Lorin has excellent experienced partners who also know their way around the courtroom. As an attorney myself, I know that a good lawyer must master the facts as well as the law and know how to use them to get the other side to reach an acceptable settlement. A settlement is always desirable because the client knows the result, but if a settlement is not immediately available, it is good to have a lawyer who knows his way around the courtroom.

Lorin has represented me on a very complex and difficult divorce. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional. He provided me with a fantastic blue print for success and guided me the entire way for over two years. He was always available and responsive. A trusted confidant, Lorin put my inte...rests first. He was very unselfish and worked with me to get the most value for the money spent. On a few occasions he suggested I not pursue my whim as it would waste my precious family resources. Lorin is highly respected in the legal community. His reputation of fairness and putting families first is a tremendous strength in any legal proceeding. Lorin is a rare find and I highly recommend him to any family.

Lorin Blum is not only a fantastic lawyer, he is a true gentleman. My divorce was probably one of the worst there ever could be. I had restraining orders, property managers, custody evaluators, vocational evaluators--you name it- I had it. Through it all, Lorin helped me in ways I cannot even begi...n to explain. I walked into his office with envelopes of $20 bills that I had managed to hide and save for my consultation. I was an emotionally bruised and battered woman. Thank God, Lorin saw the strength in me and helped to wade through the mess that became my divorce. Some say lawyers are just in it for the money--maybe some--My ex's was FOR SURE. But Lorin was in it for me and my kids--what was best for them, what could he do to make it easier or faster or less painful. He came up with such innovative ideas that made the other side look like they were "winning" but really it was best for me and my children. He defused so many volatile situations and kept me focused on what was really important and not the stupid little things that irk you but are really of no value (Like what your ex says in emails!) We had some tough, heart wrenching situations, I have never heard of an attorney who called his client at 8 PM after a long day of trial but Lorin called me when my ex and his attorney threw me some rough punches. Lorin called me on weekends when I emailed him about issues that were arising that were causing my youngest son pain. He always went above and beyond. His first question at every appointment was "How are the boys? Are they doing okay?"--It took almost 4 years to get my divorce complete. Lorin did everything he could to keep expenses down. His office staff became my friends and helped me to understand a lot about how things are handled. I always felt they ALL were there for me and would do anything to help. The office is a true team. Lorin Blum is the best attorney there is as far as I am concerned. I am so lucky that I found him and I am proud to call him not only my attorney but my friend. His continued support has made me a stronger person and a much better mother.

I can't say enough great things about Lorin Blum. He and his office helped me through the worst time of my life--my divorce. Lorin is tough, no-nonsense and quite honest (he put me in my place regarding expectations), but still has a warm and compassionate side. In retrospect, I imagine that throu...gh his 30+ years of experience, he has had to sit through thousands of agonizing tales from people in the throes of despair and anger, yet he continues to listen and understand that we all must go through the grieving process. His reputation speaks for itself. As I embarked upon my search for a good attorney who could stand up to my very forceful and savvy ex, at least 6 different sources offered his name as one who could handle the challenge. My case was extremely complicated financially, and Lorin proved he could manage it from the start. And, yes, he did with finesse! Needless to say, I'm quite happy with my settlement. Not only is Lorin amazing, but his office is also. They are a complete team. Everyone in the office knew about my case and went out of their way to help me whenever I called or stopped by. One of the most impressive things about the office was how well they worked together. When one person in the office couldn't answer my question, s/he would seek others' counsel. If that proved unsatisfactory, outside sources were consulted. Since my divorce, I have talked with numerous people who have sought Lorin's counsel. All have been impressed and incredibly satisfied. Divorce is a horrible experience--one I had never anticipated. During that awful time in my life, the one source of peace I had was the confidence in knowing that I was in good hands. I knew that Lorin was looking out for me, and since I wasn't up to the fight, he would handle it for me. And, he did. While the divorce is over and things have settled down for the most part, small issues have still arisen. I continue to call Lorin; he continues to help. I trust him and am extremely grateful to him, and will continue to be.
