More About Lauren Deal

Attorney Lauren Deal graduated from the University of Georgia Law school and her practice areas are family law, including divorce, child custody, alimony and visitation and criminal law, including felony defense, drug offenses, traffic offenses and civil asset forfeiture defense, and juvenile law, including delinquency defense.

For eight years, Lauren served as an assistant district attorney for the Towaliga Judicial Circuit in Monroe County. There, she handled approximately 300 cases per year ranging from DUI and drug violations to theft, burglary, armed robbery and murder. She also represented the District Attorney at monthly Multi-Departmental Team (MDT) meetings, working collaboratively with representatives from public education, law enforcement, mental health, and the Department of Family and Children Services (DFCS) to monitor and support children deemed “at-risk” based on their contact with the represented agencies. She also served on the Child Fatality Review Board for Monroe County and worked as a juvenile prosecutor in Butts County, Georgia.

As an ADA, Lauren was also responsible for filing civil asset forfeiture proceedings. She is a strong advocate for civil asset forfeiture reform and will aggressively defend your property.

Prior to becoming a successful attorney, Lauren began her career as an educator, teaching English to 9th and 10th grade students at Jefferson County High School in Louisville, Georgia. There, she was a well- respected teacher and was nominated for teacher of the year. Her move into law was prompted by her frustration in dealing with the public school system and her desire to make a positive difference, particularly in the lives of children and families.
