About
I am a determined advocate and skilled criminal defense litigator representing individuals facing investigations and charges in state courts across Massachusetts. Prior to joining Lawson & Weitzen in 2014, I was Staff Attorney and a Supervising Attorney with the Committee for Public Counsel Services Public Defender Division, where I gained invaluable trial experience and an intimate knowledge about the inner workings of our criminal justice system. With significant courtroom and trial experience, my extensive knowledge of criminal law and commitment to and zeal for justice enables me to provide clients with strong, unwavering, and effective advocacy.My experience and familiarity with the often-evolving law allows me to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of available defenses and to advance particular case strategies on behalf of clients. I have represented clients charged with cases ranging from drug offenses, domestic violence, sex crimes, property offenses, to motor vehicle offenses. I also advise clients on how to minimize their contact with the criminal justice system, including guiding them through police investigations, Clerk Magistrate hearings, and pre-trial diversion options.Since the numerous changes implemented from the recent Criminal Justice Reform Act, I also represent individuals seeking to seal or expunge prior criminal records (G.L. c. 276 § 100A-K). My practice also includes various other collateral criminal matters including obtaining or defending against restraining orders (G.L. c. 209A) and harassment prevention orders (G.L. c. 258E), and matters involving the Sex Offender Registry Board.

fast Responsive comforting. Her communication levels were amazing. She is very truthful also. I sent 100.00 over what I was told to pay and she sent it back . I appreciated everything you did for me.
Attorney Lauren J. Weitzen is a very professional, responsible and a caring lawyer. I hired her to seal my case because she is a great listener who explained the entire process to me in detail that made me feel confident about her. She is also great at communication - always responds in a timely fashion.
I am from NY, I received an oui among other felony charges in Boston awhile ago. I was in the process of retaining the lawyer who was originally assigned to me from the courts until I realized that if I did, I most likely would have been convicted of all charges. I drove back to NY and did some homework. I came across Lauren Weitzen. After speaking to her I retained her. The best move I ever made. Her retainer fee was reasonable, her attention to detail, keeping me updated, and her strategy was impeccable. She won me the best possible outcome I could ask for, or even dream of. She's a very thoughtful, and intelligent attorney. Throughout the entire case she made me feel comfortable, and confident. She was a pleasure to work with. There are not many criminal defense attorneys with the integrity that Lauren has. I only wish she was licensed in NY because I would use her if I even needed to here. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in a tight situation.
Lauren J.Weitzen is so professional, responsible and great attorney I never meet before. Lauren and her teammates are doing great job. I feel so lucky about her. She always respond to my emails and texts so quickly. She never took advantage from her clients. She is the best lawyer all of the World and in Boston. I highly recommended her to others.
We hired Lauren for an old DUI case in MA (1990's) that had impacted my NH license. It was a mess. She was very involved in the case and even took time to call the DMV for me, several times. That says a lot! There was never something that was below her or above her that she wouldn't do to help me. She always returned my calls/emails promptly. I've had to hire numerous attorneys throughout my life and I can honestly say that Lauren has been the best one yet. Hopefully I'm done with any issues in MA but if something else comes up, I'll call Lauren again. She won the case for me and I am grateful for that, and it didn't cost me a fortune to do so. Thanks again Lauren!
As a pro se defendant in criminal misdemeanor case, sometimes I have questions about criminal law and procedure. Lauren Weitzen is among those who gives the most helpful, concise, straight-to the-point advice.
Lauren was very helpful and answered my question and follow up very quickly. I would defiantly recommend her. Charlie
I recieved a call from Lauren who I great detail went over the process and fees that will be included. So I have not yet made a decision to go forward but if I do Lauren will absolutely be my atty....Felt comfortable and clear slow conversation made me feel like my best interests were her goal. Thank you I will be calling this week
Lauren's attention to detail and her confident determination made for a favorable ruling in my case. Her professionalism and familiarity with court personal relived my stress and allowed me to focus on the important things in life. Lauren also helped me with other legal matters not related to my case, which was all in a day for her but meant much more to me.
Lauren Weitzen was and is a great lawyer for me and my family. From the first day Lauren was the only willing to help me but dedicated her time and effort out of this world to work with me. I remember my friends lawyer told him that there is now way around this and we will be going to jail. When I seen Lauren I ask her to leave me in here, I would never forget what she said next and it stuck with me to this day and beyond, she said I'm going to get you out here and we will fight it to gather. Lauren is not your typical lawyer she gives you hope not bye her words but by her actions. She worked day and night off hours on hours and her work showed. Lauren is not your typical lawyer she actually cares about you the case and will fight her hardest to make sure you will be okay. I was and still thankful for all that she has done she takes her profession seriously and most importantly gets the job done. Thank you for being my lawyer.
