Lauren was recommended to me by two other attorneys, both of whom were exactly correct in their advice regarding her expertise. She did an absolutely outstanding job in handeling my divorce and anticipating situations that could/would arise. She was available as needed and was quick to respond to questions and to my legal needs. Very thorough in her actions. I have delt with many attorneys over the past 65 years, she is, without a doubt, the best of any and all.

Lauren provided direct insight and guidance like no other lawyer I've ever experienced over a 4 year divorce. I engaged over 10 lawyers in Oregon and Lauren was massively better than any other lawyer. Her ability to manage opposing lawyers and judges, as well as me (the client) was outstanding. Lauren uses honesty as a first principal, rather than playing off of client fears and control so common with most lawyers. We had a plan, clear boundary conditions and a range of outcome expectations. Lauren is the best. Disclaimer - I did not have a personal relationship, nor any personal references to her prior to hiring Lauren; I simply consulted with her and hired her. In fact due to Covid, I've never met her in person.

The process of getting divorced has was a significant event in my life. Her representation was beneficial to me during the challenging and unsure times during the process. She kept me on task and helped me sort out what to worry about and what not to, and prodded me along effectively in preparing the paperwork for the court and the judge to fairly and efficiently adjudicate. Further, I was confident that if things turned nasty I wouldn't be steamrolled in any way. I would add that I believe her representation was a strong deterrent to keep things from becoming confrontational during the process. And, for whatever legal representation I may need in the future I'll contact her first.

Lauren represented me in my divorce. I cannot thank Lauren enough for all of her help. Her guidance, excellent advice, and constant calm demeanor really gave me so much peace throughout my divorce. I came to her with so much uncertainty and anxiety, she immediately fully described the process which gave me so much confidence in the future outcome. It was exactly as she predicted and I hoped. Her advice was honest, to the point, and was clearly the result of experience. She was available for questions, promptly responding to me and even gently pushing me along to keep things on time and on track. She never forgot one single detail. Lauren is definitely very no-nonsense and business-like, and is known in the area to be very successful in representing her clients' interests, I needed someone excellent to deal with my ex who made things difficult with hiring and firing many different lawyers, representing himself, and generally being difficult. Lauren navigated that with ease. I would absolutely recommend Lauren (and have recommended her to several people) to anyone needing her services. She is absolutely the best out there, and I am grateful for her.

Lauren recently represented me through a very contentious divorce. She was efficient, thorough and very knowledgeable of family law. She explains things very well and is highly organized and quick in her responses and work product. I would recommend Lauren Saucy to anyone who is facing a divorce, especially if it is going to be contentious! Thanks Lauren!

I consulted with Lauren and requested that she represent me. Twice, she turned me down because it was the absolute ethical thing to do. She instead offered to consult as needed and taught me how to be a pit bull for myself. She absolutely could have taken advantage of me financially, and instead she approached the situation with only my best interest at heart. I had the best outcome and could not have done it without her.

Over the years I have had the misfortune of needing several attorneys. I can say from experience that when choosing an attorney, settle for nothing less than the best. The long term cost for anything less is immeasurable, both emotionally and financially. Laurens tenacious attitude combined with a deep legal background gave me the best possible outcome in a very complex situation. I could not have asked for better representation.

Lauren's skill and confidence are truly inspiring. She is patient, yet fierce; understanding, yet direct. She handled our complex case more efficiently and effectively than we could have dreamed of.

Lauren represented me in a very complex and contentious case, including a transfer from out of state, and custody issues. I first met with her when I was still pro se, and she advised me on a couple court filings. She was efficient, knowledgeable, and I could tell she would be cool in the face of pressure. When the case ramped up, I knew Lauren was who I wanted to represent me.
My case ended up with a full-day trial, and I would also like to address Lauren's approach to court. She is strategic, thorough, and highly focused in what she chooses to address in cross-examination. She does not get emotionally entangled in the case, but maintains a laser focus, and will calm you down if you begin letting emotions get the best of you (which is easy to do in cases involving children, large amounts of money, etc.). She is clear at all times that she cannot predict outcomes of the court system, but she also gives her honest assessment of the outcomes. In my case, she was right or very near right in each matter. She works hard to understand your goals, but also is knowledgeable about what is realistic. She also aims to fully understand her opponents, and works hard to ensure you present yourself well before the judge.
If there is an avenue that does not seem fruitful or does not seem beneficial to your case, she will advise you of this. Ultimately you are in charge of your case, but there is nobody better to legally represent your interests in custody and divorce matters than Lauren Saucy.

Paul Saucy of Saucy & Saucy, P.C. had handled the trial portion of my divorce case beautifully and effectively.
The moment Lauren Saucy learned that the opposing party had filed a notice to appeal, she called me to explain the appeals process and asked if I wanted her to represent me. I, of course, said yes, and from that time on I could not have been better represented through the appeal.
Lauren mastered the case early on and suggested the most likely outcome range. She provided well-thought analysis of the opposition's arguments and her counter-arguments. She was spot-on identifying important points and downplaying fluff. She guided me through a settlement offer that was never acknowledged. At each step, she kept me apprised of upcoming events.
Lauren's brief was strong, straightforward, and provided a great legal analysis of the case. I could clearly see the strength of her legal reasoning and writing skills.
By report, she provided strong oral argument and knocked down the opposing attorney's "misstatements of fact" in a calm manner. Throughout the lengthy appeal process, Lauren remain professional and gracious, and she, Paul Saucy, and their office staff worked to help me through the process.
Lauren called as soon as she received the Appellate Court decision. I could not be happier with the outcome. Even now, Lauren continues to fight for me to recoup attorney's fees and costs. I am certain that Lauren Saucy is the best divorce appellate attorney!

I am so grateful I found Lauren. She was recommended to me by six separate individuals, and was my favorite from several I consulted when looking to retain someone. She knows this area of the law to its finest details, and gave excellent guidance and advice throughout the process. She remained calm, cool, and focused in the face of a case with myriad frustrations and delays, and is the reason my divorce ended with a good, fair settlement. She is the best!

Lauren is excellent. She worked with me on a difficult divorce and helped me and my spouse come to workable terms in a very complex situation. This was not a cookie cutter divorce in any way. Lauren was able to review complex documents and make them understandable to me. She was also able to write original understandable documents to deal with our unique situation. She charged very fairly as well, and was much less expensive than my spouse's attorney.
