Lauren did a great job making me feel confident about my decisions when it came to my custody arrangements. She worked hard to make sure that I had the best possible plan for myself and my child. She handled my questions/concerns in a timely manner and made the whole process as smooth as possible.

I have reviewed Lauren before giving her a strong recommendation. We have now passed mediation in my divorce and reached an agreement. She again did an excellent job representing what was the most important things for me and insuring we go the best deal possible. She was very prepared and did an excellent job. I highly recommend Lauren.

My lawyer provided me with everything I needed to expect. She was thorough and really took the necessary steps to get my daughter back home. She put a lot of heat on the opposing counsel and really cared about the welfare of my daughter. Now my daughter is reunited with her two sisters and little brother. She worked with me on the retainer as well, which makes her a very understanding big hearted lawyer.

Lauren has been an excellent lawyer for me. My divorce is complex and Lauren has helped me navigate through it. My wife has caused the divorce to drag out and be very expensive. Lauren has done a great job replying to all their requests and explaining to me what was happening and why. She also was able to keep the expenses as low as possible. At crunch time like our deposition, she really came through was a very prepared. Her firm does an excellent job supporting her in her work on my case. I would highly recommend Lauren.

Lauren was very easy to work with and above all she was very knowledgable and was more than happy to help me to explore all of my options throughout the process of my divorce. She also made sure to always look out for my best interest and to keep me informed of the status of my case at all times. She is definitely someone I would refer and recommend! It was a pleasure to work with her.

I highly recommend Ms. Doughty in representing and providing legal counsel in the area of family law. Ms. Doughty represented me in a divorce proceeding and worked hard to achieve the goals set out from the beginning. Ms. Doughty works from a client centric approach, demonstrating empathy, attentiveness to client's goals, and a tenacity to achieve desired results. She has an astute legal acumen and I could not recommend Ms. Doughty more highly.

Lauren was amazingly helpful at explaining every stage of the legal process. I especially loved how well prepared she was, and as a result I was ready for anything.

I went with Ms. Doughty because she was recommended by my previous attorney at Zinda & Davis. I needed a task done as a follow-up to a divorce from a few years back. The divorce had been completed by her firm. She asked me to come in for a paid consultation which I agreed to do. After over a week, I still had not her back from her for follow-up on proceeding. I had made it known that I needed to move forward fairly fast. At the end of 2 weeks, she presented me a contract for work which, of course, required a retainer. I told her I would get the agreement back ASAP with the retainer so we could proceed quickly since I needed a fast turnaround and it was just a couple of hours for the task. She said that she may not be able to get it done in 3 days, but she would start on it ASAP. I was fine with that. After 3 days, I still had heard nothing. I received notice that there was an issue with the agreement and I needed to resend. She had not even looked at my information to move forward, it appeared. So, I moved to a new firm with a new attorney. They were able to get this done in a matter of 3 days from start to finish with positive results. So, after over 3 weeks with Ms. Doughty nothing had been done and I had paid for this service. Now, I asked Ms. Doughty for my retainer to be sent back. That took awhile, but when I did get it back, I had been billed for time that was before I had ever signed the agreement and that was outside of the consultation I had paid for. In fact, the time was for the actual contract work on her side between her and me. That was all I had been billed for and the monies had been deducted from my retainer. I tried multiple times to contact her firm about this and they would not return an email or call. I had contacted them multiple time within the 10 day grace period. I would not recommend Md. Doughty due to the fact that she appears to have a hard time following-up with clients and she bills for hours that, in my opinion, are non-billable.

Lauren was amazingly helpful at explaining every stage of the legal process. I especially loved how well prepared she was, and as a result I was ready for anything.

I went with Ms. Doughty because she was recommended by my previous attorney at Zinda & Davis. I needed a task done as a follow-up to a divorce from a few years back. The divorce had been completed by her firm. She asked me to come in for a paid consultation which I agreed to do. After over a week, I still had not her back from her for follow-up on proceeding. I had made it known that I needed to move forward fairly fast. At the end of 2 weeks, she presented me a contract for work which, of course, required a retainer. I told her I would get the agreement back ASAP with the retainer so we could proceed quickly since I needed a fast turnaround and it was just a couple of hours for the task. She said that she may not be able to get it done in 3 days, but she would start on it ASAP. I was fine with that. After 3 days, I still had heard nothing. I received notice that there was an issue with the agreement and I needed to resend. She had not even looked at my information to move forward, it appeared. So, I moved to a new firm with a new attorney. They were able to get this done in a matter of 3 days from start to finish with positive results. So, after over 3 weeks with Ms. Doughty nothing had been done and I had paid for this service. Now, I asked Ms. Doughty for my retainer to be sent back. That took awhile, but when I did get it back, I had been billed for time that was before I had ever signed the agreement and that was outside of the consultation I had paid for. In fact, the time was for the actual contract work on her side between her and me. That was all I had been billed for and the monies had been deducted from my retainer. I tried multiple times to contact her firm about this and they would not return an email or call. I had contacted them multiple time within the 10 day grace period. I would not recommend Md. Doughty due to the fact that she appears to have a hard time following-up with clients and she bills for hours that, in my opinion, are non-billable.

Lauren did a great job making me feel confident about my decisions when it came to my custody arrangements. She worked hard to make sure that I had the best possible plan for myself and my child. She handled my questions/concerns in a timely manner and made the whole process as smooth as possible.

I have reviewed Lauren before giving her a strong recommendation. We have now passed mediation in my divorce and reached an agreement. She again did an excellent job representing what was the most important things for me and insuring we go the best deal possible. She was very prepared and did an excellent job. I highly recommend Lauren.

My lawyer provided me with everything I needed to expect. She was thorough and really took the necessary steps to get my daughter back home. She put a lot of heat on the opposing counsel and really cared about the welfare of my daughter. Now my daughter is reunited with her two sisters and little brother. She worked with me on the retainer as well, which makes her a very understanding big hearted lawyer.

Lauren has been an excellent lawyer for me. My divorce is complex and Lauren has helped me navigate through it. My wife has caused the divorce to drag out and be very expensive. Lauren has done a great job replying to all their requests and explaining to me what was happening and why. She also was able to keep the expenses as low as possible. At crunch time like our deposition, she really came through was a very prepared. Her firm does an excellent job supporting her in her work on my case. I would highly recommend Lauren.

Lauren was very easy to work with and above all she was very knowledgable and was more than happy to help me to explore all of my options throughout the process of my divorce. She also made sure to always look out for my best interest and to keep me informed of the status of my case at all times. She is definitely someone I would refer and recommend! It was a pleasure to work with her.

I highly recommend Ms. Doughty in representing and providing legal counsel in the area of family law. Ms. Doughty represented me in a divorce proceeding and worked hard to achieve the goals set out from the beginning. Ms. Doughty works from a client centric approach, demonstrating empathy, attentiveness to client's goals, and a tenacity to achieve desired results. She has an astute legal acumen and I could not recommend Ms. Doughty more highly.

At crunch time like our deposition, she really came through was a very prepared. Her firm does an excellent job supporting her in her work on my case. I would highly recommend Lauren.

Lauren was very easy to work with and above all she was very knowledgable and was more than happy to help me to explore all of my options throughout the process of my divorce. She also made sure to always look out for my best interest and to keep me informed of the status of my case at all times. She is definitely someone I would refer and recommend! It was a pleasure to work with her.

I highly recommend Ms. Doughty in representing and providing legal counsel in the area of family law. Ms. Doughty represented me in a divorce proceeding and worked hard to achieve the goals set out from the beginning. Ms. Doughty works from a client centric approach, demonstrating empathy, attentiveness to client's goals, and a tenacity to achieve desired results. She has an astute legal acumen and I could not recommend Ms. Doughty more highly.

Lauren was amazingly helpful at explaining every stage of the legal process. I especially loved how well prepared she was, and as a result I was ready for anything.

I went with Ms. Doughty because she was recommended by my previous attorney at Zinda & Davis. I needed a task done as a follow-up to a divorce from a few years back. The divorce had been completed by her firm. She asked me to come in for a paid consultation which I agreed to do. After over a week, I still had not her back from her for follow-up on proceeding. I had made it known that I needed to move forward fairly fast. At the end of 2 weeks, she presented me a contract for work which, of course, required a retainer. I told her I would get the agreement back ASAP with the retainer so we could proceed quickly since I needed a fast turnaround and it was just a couple of hours for the task. She said that she may not be able to get it done in 3 days, but she would start on it ASAP. I was fine with that. After 3 days, I still had heard nothing. I received notice that there was an issue with the agreement and I needed to resend. She had not even looked at my information to move forward, it appeared. So, I moved to a new firm with a new attorney. They were able to get this done in a matter of 3 days from start to finish with positive results. So, after over 3 weeks with Ms. Doughty nothing had been done and I had paid for this service. Now, I asked Ms. Doughty for my retainer to be sent back. That took awhile, but when I did get it back, I had been billed for time that was before I had ever signed the agreement and that was outside of the consultation I had paid for. In fact, the time was for the actual contract work on her side between her and me. That was all I had been billed for and the monies had been deducted from my retainer. I tried multiple times to contact her firm about this and they would not return an email or call. I had contacted them multiple time within the 10 day grace period. I would not recommend Md. Doughty due to the fact that she appears to have a hard time following-up with clients and she bills for hours that, in my opinion, are non-billable.

Lauren did a great job making me feel confident about my decisions when it came to my custody arrangements. She worked hard to make sure that I had the best possible plan for myself and my child. She handled my questions/concerns in a timely manner and made the whole process as smooth as possible.

I have reviewed Lauren before giving her a strong recommendation. We have now passed mediation in my divorce and reached an agreement. She again did an excellent job representing what was the most important things for me and insuring we go the best deal possible. She was very prepared and did an excellent job. I highly recommend Lauren.

My lawyer provided me with everything I needed to expect. She was thorough and really took the necessary steps to get my daughter back home. She put a lot of heat on the opposing counsel and really cared about the welfare of my daughter. Now my daughter is reunited with her two sisters and little brother. She worked with me on the retainer as well, which makes her a very understanding big hearted lawyer.

I have reviewed Lauren before giving her a strong recommendation. We have now passed mediation in my divorce and reached an agreement. She again did an excellent job representing what was the most important things for me and insuring we go the best deal possible. She was very prepared and did an excellent job. I highly recommend Lauren.

My lawyer provided me with everything I needed to expect. She was thorough and really took the necessary steps to get my daughter back home. She put a lot of heat on the opposing counsel and really cared about the welfare of my daughter. Now my daughter is reunited with her two sisters and little brother. She worked with me on the retainer as well, which makes her a very understanding big hearted lawyer.

Lauren has been an excellent lawyer for me. My divorce is complex and Lauren has helped me navigate through it. My wife has caused the divorce to drag out and be very expensive. Lauren has done a great job replying to all their requests and explaining to me what was happening and why. She also was able to keep the expenses as low as possible. At crunch time like our deposition, she really came through was a very prepared. Her firm does an excellent job supporting her in her work on my case. I would highly recommend Lauren.

Lauren was very easy to work with and above all she was very knowledgable and was more than happy to help me to explore all of my options throughout the process of my divorce. She also made sure to always look out for my best interest and to keep me informed of the status of my case at all times. She is definitely someone I would refer and recommend! It was a pleasure to work with her.

I highly recommend Ms. Doughty in representing and providing legal counsel in the area of family law. Ms. Doughty represented me in a divorce proceeding and worked hard to achieve the goals set out from the beginning. Ms. Doughty works from a client centric approach, demonstrating empathy, attentiveness to client's goals, and a tenacity to achieve desired results. She has an astute legal acumen and I could not recommend Ms. Doughty more highly.

Lauren was amazingly helpful at explaining every stage of the legal process. I especially loved how well prepared she was, and as a result I was ready for anything.

I went with Ms. Doughty because she was recommended by my previous attorney at Zinda & Davis. I needed a task done as a follow-up to a divorce from a few years back. The divorce had been completed by her firm. She asked me to come in for a paid consultation which I agreed to do. After over a week, I still had not her back from her for follow-up on proceeding. I had made it known that I needed to move forward fairly fast. At the end of 2 weeks, she presented me a contract for work which, of course, required a retainer. I told her I would get the agreement back ASAP with the retainer so we could proceed quickly since I needed a fast turnaround and it was just a couple of hours for the task. She said that she may not be able to get it done in 3 days, but she would start on it ASAP. I was fine with that. After 3 days, I still had heard nothing. I received notice that there was an issue with the agreement and I needed to resend. She had not even looked at my information to move forward, it appeared. So, I moved to a new firm with a new attorney. They were able to get this done in a matter of 3 days from start to finish with positive results. So, after over 3 weeks with Ms. Doughty nothing had been done and I had paid for this service. Now, I asked Ms. Doughty for my retainer to be sent back. That took awhile, but when I did get it back, I had been billed for time that was before I had ever signed the agreement and that was outside of the consultation I had paid for. In fact, the time was for the actual contract work on her side between her and me. That was all I had been billed for and the monies had been deducted from my retainer. I tried multiple times to contact her firm about this and they would not return an email or call. I had contacted them multiple time within the 10 day grace period. I would not recommend Md. Doughty due to the fact that she appears to have a hard time following-up with clients and she bills for hours that, in my opinion, are non-billable.
