Extremely knowledgeable and always willing to help

I was referred to attorney Leeper by a friend who hired his services in the past and highly recommended him. I contacted him about my immigration situation over the phone. Attorney Leeper was very willing to assist me with specific advice. He is extremeley knowledgeable and made me feel reassured abo...ut how to proceed in my situation. I would certainly recommend him as an immigration attorney! Thank you for all your help!

Attention to detail

Attorney Leeper will pay close attention to everything that you tell him. When he presents in court, he will speak of all the individuals involved in the incident, no matter how complicated, as if he knows them himself. Mr. Leeper is a regular at the Dedham courthouse. Because he know the person...nel, and knows his way around, you will feel at ease appearing there with him. His wit and easygoing style will also help to ease your concerns.

Well prepared cross-examiner

Much help with getting us through our stressful ordeal, and for agreeing to take on our case at the last hour. Words cannot simply express our sincere appreciation for all the help he has done for us. It was obvious that he was very well-prepared for the case and knew exactly the best way to go abo...ut cross-examining. Because of his efforts, we have some peace of mind. Should we require any further assistance in the future, we will not hesitate to call upon his services once again.

Immigration Matters

My wife and I used Kevin to take care of our US Naturalization application. He was incredibly accessible, knowledgeable, and courteous. We were doing this by ourselves, but by using Kevin, we were able to trim months, if not a year or more off of the process. We were extremely pleased in every reg...ard.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
