An Excellent Attorney

Intelligent, respected by the Court and her peers, and appropriately aggressive in arguing her client's position, are many of the excellent professional qualities of Ms. Leah E. Ross. Divorce is an emotional time for people. Ms. Ross knows how to temper those emotions and keeps her clients focused ...on the salient issues. I highly recommend Ms. Ross not only for her professionalism but also her empathy in helping me get through an emotional and difficult time. If you want an attorney who possesses many respected qualities, hire Ms. Ross!

Litigation lawyer | Mar 28

Relationship: Co-worker

"Rarely does an attorney, who is concomitantly professional, intellectually curious, hardworking, down-to-earth, and passionate about the serving each client she encounters, come along. Leah Ross is that attorney. During my tenure as a domestic violence prosecutor at the Kings County District Attorney’s Office, I had the great privilege to work with Ms. Ross. Each year, Ms. Ross consistently garnered successful trial results, displayed professionalism and sympathy with victims and witnesses, and demonstrated the utmost dedication to her craft. Despite handling an extremely heavy caseload, containing cases ranging from assault to rape to attempted murder, Ms. Ross applied the same attention to each case, as if it were her only. She is a smart, compassionate, and dedicated trial attorney. I wholeheartedly endorse her."
