Lauren has been my attorney for the past 3 years and I could not be more pleased with how she (and the rest of her team) handled my case from beginning to end. Throughout this terribly trying experience (which included multiple hearings for divorce, custody, and child support disputes) my confidence in Lauren has never faltered and I was able to find comfort in the fact that she always had my and my daughter’s interests in mind. I was well informed, well prepared, and had clear expectations throughout the entire process, and I was never disappointed or surprised in court. I have already personally recommended her to one other person (who has retained her) and will do so to anyone who finds themselves in this difficult situation.

Lauren Fair.
With a background as a highly experienced divorce attorney, certified divorce coach, and trained mediator, I am passionate about helping women learn to successfully engage in divorce mediation.
After 15 years in the courtroom, I empower women to stay out of it whenever reasonably possible.

You do not have to have a long, drawn-out, expensive, and ugly divorce process. I can show you how you can do better for yourself and your family.

The moment I went into consultation with Lauren I felt at ease and relieved that finally someone is willing to listen and understand.
This review is long overdue. I am very thankful to Lauren Fair. I was her client back in 2012. I was having a difficult time with my daughter’s father but the moment I went into consultation with her I felt at ease and relieved that finally someone is willing to listen and understand. I didn’t have much money, I even lost my apartment in order to retain her services. My child and I were legit homeless. She is compassionate and willing to go out and above for her client. I am truly grateful. She got it done in one go. No headache or mess for me. I had a smooth experience. Thank you Lauren.

Elena focused on a resolution, which made me trust her even more.
Elena remained balanced, reflective and strategic throughout the entire process. Without Elena’s insight and expert knowledge of the law, the case could have easily resulted in ongoing conflict and expensive litigation. Elena focused on a resolution, which made me trust her even more.
Samantha served as the paralegal on my case. She was highly responsive and with an incredible attention to detail.
Family law can become high conflict very quickly, Working with an ethical attorney and paralegal focused on the well being of their client and client’s child, rather than ongoing and unnecessary litigation is invaluable.
