Family Legal Documents

When my mother become unable to take care of herself, McConnell Law and Lauren helped us with power of attorney, medical directive, and other documents we needed to make sure mom's wishes were followed and she was protected financially. They were fast, thorough, and reasonable.

Fabulous Attorney

I came to Lauren for help with a divorce. She made the process as painless as possible and was really patient with me. She was clear about the law, made the process easier to understand, and fought for what I wanted the whole time. I would definitely recommend her and definitely use her again.

She know's her stuff!

Lauren and her team handled my divorce. They did a great job prepping everything. We even did a mock trial before the real thing to make sure everything went well. I could not have navigated the paper mountain the other attorney was trying to bury me with. Lauren was responsive day or night by text, ...messenger or email!

Confident and very expert!

We ran into a very unpleasant situation with a person harassing us via mail and online over a divorce-related grievance. We were very concerned that things might escalate dangerously, too, and we weren't sure if we should pursue civil or criminal charges. Lauren met us on our schedule, and the en...tire time listened very attentively and carefully. We explained our situation, which was quite complex, and she laid out our options in short order. She really took the time to make sure we understood the advantage vs cost of retaining an attorney, and the odds of success with the various options we were considering. Though the situation eventually was handled by the police, Lauren left us feeling much more confident and reassured about what was a very scary situation. She was confident and bluntly honest about things, with no effort to either scare us into hiring her or sugarcoating things so we felt like we were in a false sense of security. She had a great knowledge of state law and case law, and demonstrated a tremendous talent for doing research and looking up related cases and legal issues to cite precedents that would help or hinder us. She didn't leave the meeting until she felt that we understood the situation and she followed up several times following that to ask if we were doing all right and if anything new had developed. Putting Lauren on your team or even on retainer would be a smart move for anyone dealing with family or custody issues. She's tough, she's very smart, and she works extremely hard not just to 'win' the case but make sure that your interests have a strong and assertive advocate pushing them forward. I fully intend to retain Lauren for any and all custody or family related issues I encounter going forward.

If anyone asked me for a legal recommendation, it would be Lauren hands down.

Lauren has helped me on a few cases now, from family matters to other legal issues. She is very knowledgeable of wide spectrum of topics and defends her cases very well. I've worked with other attorneys who did not seem to care about me as a person and only wanted to make money. That is not Lauren. S...he makes sure I am doing OK emotionally, she lets me know of options I have for things going on outside of the case at hand, and she always makes me feel like I have someone fiercely fighting for me. If you're looking for someone you can trust to stand by you 100% through your whole legal process and always keep you in the loop, I highly recommend Lauren.

She is exceptionally professional, proficient in the law and diligent when seeking out and researching information she doesn't know rather than simply "winging it" as some attorneys will. A client with Ms. McConnell as their attorney will surely be well represented."
