Lauren Lake and Myeshia Mizuno have been named executive producers of Lauren Lake’s Paternity Court.

“Lauren’s experience reuniting more than 600 families with every gavel-hitting, tear-shedding, wisdom-sharing moment of the past 600 episodes has earned her the executive producer title,” said David Armour, creator and executive producer of Lauren Lake’s Paternity Court. “Myeshia’s passion for making great television combined with her dedication to the series over the years makes it a well-deserved promotion. We’re honored to have had the opportunity to recognize such great leaders for the Paternity Court production team.”

Mizuno, who was previously a co-executive producer on Paternity Court, will continue to serve as executive producer for Couples Court with The Cutlers.
