A true professional that cares about his clients

Brian helped me negotiate a separation package from my employer. He offered me sound advice and stood up to the legal team of a multi-national corporation. I would highly recommend Brian's services to anyone.

What a great help to me and my family

Brian is a true professional and offers you the professional advice/services you need and in the most timely way ever. I had some real challenges with managing my mom's estate, as she battled Dementia and other challenges. The services were spot on and will forever appreciate the high level of servic...e offered. Thank you Brian!

Excellent

I was fortunate to engage Attorney Leahey to assist with an issue with a former employer. Attorney Leahey is talented, knowledgeable, professional, and personable. He gave me excellent and insightful advice and handled the situation to a successful conclusion, keeping me updated each step of the wa...y. Although I hope to not need the services of a labor attorney again, I will certainly recommend him to others and wouldn't hesitate to contact him again. Thank you, Brian.

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.
