Do Divorce Differently. 

Do it better and faster than the horror stories you've heard from friends.

 

You know you want to resolve your divorce with as little damage to yourself, your family, and your bank account as possible. 

You've heard divorce mediation may be the way to go.  But you wonder whether it will work for you because your spouse can be difficult and your situation has some challenges.

You're about to embark on a legal process you don't know much about and make high-stakes decisions on critical issues that will affect your future for years to come.

All of this is expected of you at a time when intense emotions may be making it challenging to see your situation objectively or stay at the negotiating table.

And you don't know what's reasonable to ask for in terms of a settlement. 

You want to get this right.  But you're not sure how or where to start.

That's okay.  You're not supposed to know how to do that already. 

With more than 15 years of experience as a Southern California divorce professional, I do.  And I can teach you how to handle divorce mediation like a pro through my signature program, The Sensible Split. 

Don't waste time, money, and effort going into mediation unprepared.  As the saying goes . . . 

"If you fail to prepare, you're preparing to fail."

Hi, I'm Lauren Fair.

Master Divorce Coach

With a background as a highly experienced divorce attorney and trained mediator, I am passionate about helping women learn to successfully engage in divorce mediation. 

After 15 years in the courtroom, I empower women to stay out of it whenever reasonably possible. 

Instead, I show clients how they can divorce in a way that is designed to minimize legal fees, maintain more control over the outcome, maximize the potential for their post-divorce life, and resolve the process more quickly and efficiently.

You do not have to have a long, drawn-out, expensive, and ugly divorce process.  I can show you how you can do better for yourself and your family.

What My Clients Are Saying 

"Lauren was an amazing support to me during the beginning stages of my divorce when I had no idea what I was doing. Her non-judgmental, “stop beating yourself up” approach was exactly what I needed. She is understanding, yet no-nonsense and helped to keep me on track with the overwhelming tasks of starting over. She helped me focus on the positives in my life and gave me strategies and tools that fit with my particular situation. I will forever be grateful to have been able to lean on Lauren through this emotional and difficult process."

~ Megan

"This was my first time ever going through a divorce and my ex had done it 3 times.  He was great at manipulating and knew what he was doing.  I had no idea.  Lauren was able to provide me with all the info I needed and guided me when I had NO idea.  I never would have been able to get as far as I did without her.  Lauren was very supportive and helpful!  Lauren was able to provide me with peace when I was stressed by explaining the next steps and reassuring me that what I was asking for wasn't anything ridiculous.  When I was stuck on decisions, she was able to talk through all the possible outcomes to help guide me towards a decision without pressuring me one way or another."


~ Caitlin

“Lauren Fair’s expertise, empathy, compassion, and thoroughness were a grounding force for me during a traumatic time.  Compounding the typical stressors of divorce were the realities of fundamentally different parenting styles.  I often found myself lamenting to Lauren.  She served impeccably . . . to the point where Lauren also became a confidante.”
