Excellent Lawyer!

Lauren assisted us through the adoption of our son and did an amazing job. Her communication with us was perfect and she had amazing attention to detail throughout the process. She’s made the process very smooth and as stress free as possible. Highly highly highly recommend her!!

Wonderful Experience

Lauren helped answer all of our questions about the adoption process and calmed many of our fears along the way. She was personable and very prompt. I would recommend Lauren's services to anyone pursuing adoption.

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.
