“Rising Star” Attorney Lauren O. Youngman of the law firm of Youngman Reitshtein, PLC (YR) in Beverly Hills, California, has been certified as a Specialist in Family Law by the State Bar of California, Board of Legal Specialization.

The State Bar of California program for certifying legal Specialists is a California Supreme Court approved method of certifying Attorneys in eleven specialty areas of law, including Family Law. Attorneys are certified through a process which includes successful passage of a written examination, completion of specific tasks in the specialty area, attendance at a prescribed number of approved education programs, and peer review.

“I am so pleased to have received certification as a Specialist in Family Law by the State Bar of California,” states Attorney Lauren O. Youngman. “The process to become certified as a Family Law Specialist was rigorous and rewarding. I am very proud of this achievement, which allows me to be counted among a talented community of attorneys who focus their practice on the area of Family Law. I look forward to continuing to build on my experience and to advocate for my clients, helping them to navigate the family law system in order to achieve the best possible outcome during what is often a very difficult time in their lives.”

“We are incredibly proud of Lauren and all that she has accomplished since joining our firm,” concludes YR Attorney/Partner Barbara J. Youngman. “She was recognized on Super Lawyer’s 2018 and 2019 ‘Rising Star’ lists, and has now been certified as a Specialist in Family Law by the State Bar of California.”

“Although Lauren has only been practicing law for five years,” adds YR Attorney/Partner Ron Reitshtein, “this prestigious honor distinguishes her as one of the best in the field. She truly earned this certification with all of her hard work and dedication.”

Reitshtein was also recognized on the same Super Lawyer’s 2018 and 2019 “Rising Star” list. He and fellow YR Attorney/Partner Barbara J. Youngman (a seasoned veteran of Family Law) joined forces to open YR (Youngman Reitshtein, PLC) in late 2014. The firm is celebrating its 5thAnniversary this year.
