Intelligence, Integrity, Perseverance, & Knowledge of the Law

Paul Lees is an outstanding, sharp, and caring attorney gifted with the ability to make every step along the way clear to his clients. In a long, drawn out borderline harassment process over four years, we endured having the courts decide in our favor, only to have the opposing attorney go back dogge...dly with appeal after appeal. Paul Lees walked us through this nightmare with determination and professionalism at all times. We highly recommend him.

Personal Injury

I was in a very bad auto accident in August of 2015. Paul was recommended to me by the Bar. He did a fantastic job explanning the whole legal process. Highly professional, but also relatable. Never had a problem in the year and a half he was hired. Case has settled recently, sooner than I expected! I... recommend him for sure. God forbid I'd be in another situation like this, but if I am, I'd definitely use him again.

Personal Injury

Paul Lees represented me in a personal injury suit against a large scale retailer. Paul's level of commitment was second to none. Paul has excellent communication skills... Always keeping me informed as information became available to him. When representing me he left no stone unturned and I felt com...pletely prepared for trial. I would highly recommend Paul with enthusiasm and without hesitation!

Contractor negliegence, title clearance

Attorney Lees professionalism, responsiveness, knowledge, and willingness to keep me informed throughout the entire process has been unmatched by any other attorney to date. When people ask who I would recommend, my first answer is Attorney Paul Lees. Had I engaged his services earlier in the proce...ss he would have prevented me from making a costly mistake of talking to an insurance appraiser before I cost myself a few thousand dollars with some innocent statements that I made to the appraiser, that the insurance company then twisted to their benefit. I have used Attorney Lees almost exclusively now for years, as a result of my first dealings with him, and will continue to do so. A lot can be said knowing you can trust your attorney to do what's right by you and not what is easiest for them to score a paycheck.
