Lauren is a commercial litigation and probate attorney, with trial, arbitration, and evidentiary hearing experience beyond her years.

Lauren enjoys crafting compelling trial narratives and persuasive presentations of evidence. In her first jury trial with FYK, she won a $361,190 verdict in Galveston County, with more than half the award consisting of punitive and other non-compensatory damages. And in her first arbitration, she examined the plaintiff’s key witness with an FYK team that won a confidential seven-figure award. In addition to this trial experience, she has handled numerous evidentiary hearings in probate and civil district court, including in matters involving multi-million estates and judgments.

A graduate of the University of Houston Law Center, Lauren began her career at a go-to probate and civil litigation firm in Montgomery County, before practicing probate law at Kean Miller in Houston.
