About the Attorneys

Matthew Langhals

Matthew Langhals practices in the area of family law, which includes dissolution, divorce, custody, parenting time, uncontested adoption, and cases involving Children's Services.  Matthew is also a Parenting Coordinator and a Mediator certified through the Ohio Supreme Court Judicial College.  Matthew acts as a Mediator in family law matters, civil litigation matters, and any other matter where the parties are open to resolving their differences outside of court. 

Matthew started his career as an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney in St. Clair County, MI.  He moved back to his home state of Ohio and opened his own practice in 2012 with a focus on creating an atmosphere where clients felt understood, involved, and appreciated.  Matthew believes educating clients about the law and the legal process provides each client with a better understanding of their specific case and a greater sense of comfort.

Lauren Kimmel

Lauren Kimmel practices in the area of family law, with a focus on dissolution, divorce, custody, and parenting time.  Lauren began her career as a law clerk at the Madison County Court of Common Pleas. She was then promoted to the position of staff attorney. Lauren was appointed as the Magistrate of the Domestic Relations Division of the Madison County Court in 2013 and served in that capacity until 2018.  She then became the Managing Attorney of the Marion office for the Legal Aid Society of Columbus.  Lauren joined Matthew Langhals in September 2021 because they both believed that being a lawyer should mean treating everyone with respect, applying common sense to resolving family issues, and helping clients get through a tough time in their lives with kindness and understanding.

Our Core Values

Honesty and transparency are both extremely important when it comes to being reputable and trustworthy lawyers. We talk with our clients like regular human beings. We aren't trying to impress anyone with our mastery of legal language. We impress people because we're straight shooters.  People don't want candy-coated legal advice or lawyers who blow smoke. We give our clients the "lay of the land" and we create game plans that manage their cases efficiently, effectively, and responsibly.

Why Choose Langhals Law

Matthew, Lauren and Tara have extensive backgrounds in the legal field, but what truly sets them apart is their character, personality, and ability to educate their clients and make their clients feel like they are an important part of the team:  because they are an important part of the team. This environment provides a sense of comfort, involvement and mutual respect which we believe is necessary. We look at a client's legal matter like a ship filled with very important cargo:  You are the captain of the ship, and we are the navigators who set your course.  We want to make sure you make it into port safely and don't run aground along the way.
