About Leah
Biography
It is very satisfying to help people get a fresh start. Anyone can suffer a setback that puts them in a tough financial position. Illness, disability, divorce and unemployment all contribute to financial distress, and these events can occur without warning. I do not feel that people should have to choose between paying their debts and putting food on the table for their families. When the law can work against you, it will, so why not use the law to your advantage when possible?
Managing my own solo practice gives me the ability to be flexible in many ways. If meeting in either of my offices is inconvenient for you, I can visit your office. If a big job proves too costly, I can arrange to do the work in smaller pieces or discuss payment plans. Whatever the issue is that arises, there is always a workable solution.
The BEST way to reach me is text or e-mail.
