By far one of the most educated, professional, aggressive and strategic attorneys I've seen in action. Her firms commitment to their clients case is UNRIVALED . I AM NOT A "PAID" REVIEWER. Her price should be higher than what it is, because of the sheer commitment. You get what you pay for.

5 Stars is not even close to the rating for Lauren Campoli! From the instant I first spoke to her, until the dismissal of my order, she was rock solid. In my book, 5,000 Stars. Lauren will be creative, determined, and truly one of the best lawyers. While we never want to hire an attorney, knowing yo...

Lauren Campoli did a wonderful job on the case. She communicated clearly throughout the case process and explained our options. She championed the case and presented it in a positive light. She was able to negotiate the case in a positive manner and we were happy with the outcome. I would highly reco...
"Lauren is one of the most competent, prepared and compassionate lawyers in an otherwise cold area of law. She is loved by her clients, revered by judges and feared for her tenacity by prosecutors. It is without hesitation that I endorse this lawyer."
"I am very familiar with Lauren Campoli's work as she was the attorney for the codefendants on many serious cases I handled. She has achieved not guilty verdicts on very serious felonies throughout her career. Lauren is a first-rate criminal defense attorney and I endorse her without reservation."
"Upon first meeting Lauren, I could immediately feel the passion that she has for representing her clients' positions in a zealous yet respectful way. Lauren will go the extra mile to make sure that her clients' rights are upheld to the upmost degree. She truly believes in justice and feels that everyone deserves a rigorous defense. She leads with a compassionate and empathetic foot without budging from her ideals. She is a lawyer of integrity and represents the profession in the most positive light possible -- all criminal defense lawyers should strive to work for their clients with such zeal! I highly recommend and admire Lauren."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Cutuly Campoli is a very knowledgeable and well respected criminal defense attorney in Minnesota. I recommend her."
"Lauren is one of the most passionate criminal defense attorneys out there. She brings this energy to each and every client she represents, whether they are charged with a minor traffic offense or a serious felony. She "gets it" about how much is on the line and won't cave and take the state's first offer like how so many attorneys will. She is not afraid to take a case to trial. Her attention to the seemingly minor issues and facts works to her clients' benefit. Her extensive trial experience allows her to easily and quickly assess any case. If I were ever charged with a crime, Lauren would be my first call."
"I endorse this lawyer. She provides detailed and insightful analysis to questions posed by AVVO subscribers. The detailed responses and thorough explanations provided here display a vast knowledge of the law. She is an asset to the legal community."
"I worked with Ms. Campoli when she was a public defender in Adams County, Colorado, and found her to be well-prepared, easy to work with, as well as a vigorous advocate for her clients. Ms. Campoli was always honest and upfront in her dealings with me as a prosecutor, and it was a pleasure having her on the other side of the aisle. I endorse her without reservation!""
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Compoli is an outstanding attorney with an exceptional reputation. She is a strong and zealous advocate and a credit to the legal profession. If you need a criminal defense attorney she is one of the best in the state."
