Lauren Saucy

Lauren was recommended to me by two other attorneys, both of whom were exactly correct in their advice regarding her expertise. She did an absolutely outstanding job in handeling my divorce and anticipating situations that could/would arise. She was available as needed and was quick to respond to qu...estions and to my legal needs. Very thorough in her actions. I have delt with many attorneys over the past 65 years, she is, without a doubt, the best of any and all.

Posted by Paul | January 07, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

4 year divorce - Laurel by far the best lawyer I've experience.

Lauren provided direct insight and guidance like no other lawyer I've ever experienced over a 4 year divorce. I engaged over 10 lawyers in Oregon and Lauren was massively better than any other lawyer. Her ability to manage opposing lawyers and judges, as well as me (the client) was outstanding. La...uren uses honesty as a first principal, rather than playing off of client fears and control so common with most lawyers. We had a plan, clear boundary conditions and a range of outcome expectations. Lauren is the best. Disclaimer - I did not have a personal relationship, nor any personal references to her prior to hiring Lauren; I simply consulted with her and hired her. In fact due to Covid, I've never met her in person.

Competent, honest, trustworthy

Lauren represented me in my divorce. I cannot thank Lauren enough for all of her help. Her guidance, excellent advice, and constant calm demeanor really gave me so much peace throughout my divorce. I came to her with so much uncertainty and anxiety, she immediately fully described the process which ...gave me so much confidence in the future outcome. It was exactly as she predicted and I hoped. Her advice was honest, to the point, and was clearly the result of experience. She was available for questions, promptly responding to me and even gently pushing me along to keep things on time and on track. She never forgot one single detail. Lauren is definitely very no-nonsense and business-like, and is known in the area to be very successful in representing her clients' interests, I needed someone excellent to deal with my ex who made things difficult with hiring and firing many different lawyers, representing himself, and generally being difficult. Lauren navigated that with ease. I would absolutely recommend Lauren (and have recommended her to several people) to anyone needing her services. She is absolutely the best out there, and I am grateful for her.

Lauren is "Top Shelf"

Lauren recently represented me through a very contentious divorce. She was efficient, thorough and very knowledgeable of family law. She explains things very well and is highly organized and quick in her responses and work product. I would recommend Lauren Saucy to anyone who is facing a divorce, ...especially if it is going to be contentious! Thanks Lauren!

Stunning

Lauren's skill and confidence are truly inspiring. She is patient, yet fierce; understanding, yet direct. She handled our complex case more efficiently and effectively than we could have dreamed of.

Unknown lawyer | Jul 22

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have had the experience of being the opposing lawyer, mediator and appellate collaborator of Lauren Saucy for over 15 years. Lauren is highly skilled and knowledgeable in all areas of family law allowing her to be both a very effective trial lawyer but also an objective & reasonable lawyer who can obtain fair settlements out of court. Honesty, knowledge and skill are attributes that are not often found in the same person but Lauren is that rare combination of all those things that allows her to serve her clients extremely well. I endorse her and have recommended her often when I have been unable to take a case myself. If I ever needed a lawyer for myself I would not hesitate to hire her."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Divorce lawyers know that most cases should, and do, settle. So while Lauren is a highly effective trial lawyer, she is also objective, reasonable, and honest--attributes that serve her client well when negotiating fair settlements. I endorse her and recommend her often."
