Lauren M. Fair

Since the very beginning of her legal education and career, Attorney Lauren Fair has focused her advocacy on protecting the interests of families and children. She represents clients in a myriad of family law issues in all San Diego County courts. Although a tough, sharp advocate for her clients, Lauren is also compassionate and approachable when interacting with her clients. Lauren takes the time to ensure her clients understand their choices, as the decisions they make in a family law case can have enduring effects.

Lauren handles her cases personally from beginning to end to ensure her clients receive the personal attention they need during the difficult times that compel them to seek her representation. Lauren understands that family discord often results in deep, prolonged conflict between former partners that inhibits their ability to resolve their family law matter independently; as such, she enjoys assuming the role of advocate and legal counselor for her clients inside and outside the courtroom so the client can begin to concentrate on decreasing personal conflict and rebuilding his or her life.

Lauren excels in thoroughly evaluating family law matters comprised of many moving pieces, and recommending a course of action calculated to achieve client objectives, tailored to the facts of the particular case, and designed to be as cost-effective as possible. Dedicated to delivering superior and compassionate service, Lauren zealously and tirelessly advocates on behalf of her clients.

In her free time, Lauren enjoys walking at the beach, traveling in France, and spending time with friends and family.
