A lawyer that will fight for you.

I was struck near a crosswalk by a police cruiser responding to an emergency in November of 2014. It was nighttime and there was light rain. My head was split wide open and required twelve staples to close. I met with several attorneys and no one would take the case. Then I met with Paul Lees one... week before the two year anniversary and he agreed to investigate and file suit if necessary. He filed suit and the case got stronger and stronger. We settled at mediation and I am very satisfied with his representation. I highly recommend Paul.

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.

There when you need him

Mr. Lees was extremely helpful with negotiations that released me from negligence for an auto accident that would have cost me several hundred dollars for several years on my insurance. Mr. Lees took the time to carefully listen to my side of the story and applied the respective laws that helped rule... in my favor. He willingly gave this case extra personal time to ensure I won. I would recommend Mr. Lees' services to anyone out there looking to have the best possible chance of winning his/her case. He is professional, courteous and held in high regard in the courts and with his peers.

Car accident

I used Paul Lees approximately 7 or 8 years ago pertaining to a chain reaction car accident I was involved in. Paul would always return my calls and would be proactive in calling me when information came his way. It appeared to me right away that Paul treats all cases the same, whether they are a mul...ti-million dollar lawsuit or an accident that had injuries but was not a big case at all. He treats everybody the same way. He was totally professional and actually stopped by my ex-fiancée's house to drop off her settlement check when it came in. I would not hesitate to use him again. E.S.
