Legal cases are never a fun or easy thing to be involved in or participate in Life. Lauren has been compassionate and helpful in advancing my daughters case to the point where we are now able to negotiate with the other party and complete the legal requirements for the case. Court is never speedy but Lauren has moved this case forward and obtained positive results in all our court appearances. This has made a significant impact on where we are today and the ability to move forward in life without court proceedings.

Lauren was exactly who I needed when I hit the tipping point and was about to fall to pieces. Lauren is a fantastic listener, answered all of my questions and gave solid guidance. I never felt judged. I couldn't have asked for a better partner throughout the process.

The Bagley Law Firm has been great to work with. We've been represented by two attorneys on two family cases. Lauren was our recent attorney. Both times we received excellent service and a good outcome. The entire staff has been fair, professional, and very responsive. We definitely recommend Lauren and this firm.

Lauren knew her stuff, was fair with her hours, and had a lot of good advice to get through a very hard time. Highly recommended!

I just wanted to take some time to bring to your attention my experience with Lauren Shepherd. With all the negativity in the world surrounding attorneys much less the topic of divorce it was refreshing and relieving meeting and working with Lauren. She is a a blanket of confidence and determined talent in an other wise brutal and cold world. Her listening skills and focus helped connect to my situation and expertly assist me in handling my separation and divorce. Lauren was efficient, direct and up front. She was strong when I was not and her experience greatly improved the final outcome. Thank you so much

I am so grateful for Lauren’s support during such a difficult time in life. In conjunction with her expertise, she showed kindness and compassion when helping me make decisions. Lauren was readily available and prompt in our interactions. Most of all, she displayed deep empathy and wisdom. Thank you, Lauren.

Lauren, who I have to say is an absolute saint, was taking on a lot when she agreed to help me adjust my divorce order - it was a complicated and messy case. She started by giving me an incredibly thorough consultation, where she immediately put my mind at ease by helping me to think about all my different options. Lauren would not give up until this matter was resolved; her persistence is inspiring, quite frankly, and exactly what you want and need with your attorney. She was always quick to respond to my emails and phone calls, even before I had paid my retainer. She also helped me discuss the cost-effectiveness of my legal choices, which isn't always something attorneys will do. I also had a very difficult time finding a way to serve my ex, so she found multiple ways to track him down and she was able to serve him with two different sets of papers (he had no home address and we could not find him) - which I had about given up on! Lauren also made a point to attend court when I needed her to; and she also gave me her best advice on things that I could do on my own to save more of my retainer. Every step of the way I was impressed by her professionalism, her vast legal knowledge, and her passion for helping families to feel safe and protected through the law. Lauren made herself available in emergency situations and really helped me navigate some of the toughest experiences of my life. If you're considering hiring a family law attorney, I strongly suggest you start with Lauren. She is the best! I will always go back to her with any family law matters. Thank you, Lauren!

I was very pleased with Laurens representation during my divorce case. She was very timely in responding to questions I had and the staff was very helpful in every regard, as well. I really could not be happier with the professionalism and level of service Lauren provided. If the need should arise, I will certainly be giving Lauren a call.

I had the pleasure of working with Lauren for my divorce settlement. She is amazing and made the entire process much less stressful. Her professionalism and insight is only overshadowed by her down to earth approachability and genuine concern for the client. I was so nervous and worried and she made the journey as comfortable as possible with her amazing attention to detail. If you want the best give Lauren a call she will be upfront about cost and managing your expectations. A great attorney to have on your side!

When my spouse suddenly asked for a divorce, I was blind-sided. He had done a lot of research on the process prior to informing me that it was what he wanted, and originally told me exactly how it was going to go. I am so glad that I reached out and scheduled an appointment to speak with Lauren the next day. She understood what I needed to get through this process, and explained to me how each step would work. She did an amazing job of advising me but also hearing where I needed to come from. It was so beneficial to have someone on my side who understood what the process was, rather than allowing my spouse to dictate it, thereby allowing me to feel empowered in a decision that I didn't have a say in. I would highly recommend Lauren and her entire team, and would not hesitate to use them in the future if a need arose.
