Leah E. Ross

After failed mediation, collaboration and several years of litigation in a highly contentious action, Ms. Ross facilitated a settlement that had been previously deemed impossible. Her strength of character and compassion, was not only a welcome departure from the callous, indifferent, broken jud...icial system, it was in no small part responsible for the successful conclusion of a fair and equitable settlement. Ms. Ross was able to work past the acrimony, using tremendous empathy and creativity, without comprising on the things that mattered most. I would highly recommend her if you desire an attorney who is bright, creative, capable, empathic, and compassionate; yet be able to stand-up for what is most important to you.

I first met Leah a couple of years ago and was not sure what to expect. As hectic as her schedule is, she always seemed to find time to answer questions and discuss how to proceed going forward. If she did not have an answer to a question, she was sure to research and get an answer in a timely fash...ion. Leah Ross is a fact finder extraprdinaire. She is a straight shooter and tells you like it is. I had the priviledge of having Leah as an attorney in two matters. Divorce is hard enough when parties are unable to reach an agreement. Leah is professional, competent, confident and maintains her composure in the courtroom. I can say with confidence that she has the knowledge and ambition to persevere in helping to achieve what is in the best interest of her clients. My first impression was "a diamond in the rough". Throughout her representation, I came to think of her as a gem that I was fortunate enough to have for an attorney. I highly recommend Leah Ross to anyone who is seeking an attorney that is truly going to represent the best interest of her client.

Leah was awesome. I heard all kinds of terrible things from friends about their lawyers. How they never returned calls or would not responded to emails. How they would just cut and paste documents with the wrong names or contain facts that did not pertain to their case. That was not my experience at ...all. Leah was always on point. She always had my best interests in mind. We discussed strategies and she was always accessible. I even had her personal cell phone number. We spoke evenings and on the weekends. She was very sensitive to the fact that I worked as well. Leah was sharp, and very aggressive. I felt that she and everyone else in the firm of Johnson and Cohen treated me as a person, not just another client. I unfortunately went through a divorce, there are no winners in any divorce case, but I felt I was well represented and not taken advantage of by opposing council. It is with out hesitation that I recommend Leah Ross, esq.

For several years Leah handled my divorce. What an incredible mix of knowledge and pragmatic intelligent decisions and street smarts! She navigated the whole conflict with a smile and charm. She stood at the difficult arguments with incredible strenght and clarity. She did not miss a detail and got... into the case with attention of every posible twist and implications to my future. She managed to find the way to end the ordeal in spite of all the obstacles and the disfavorable conditions we were put initially. She never stopped, never rested, never gave up and most important she held me through the difficult exahusting and diminishing process of divorce. Perhaps more important than anything is that she really cares and loves what she does. She has passion for justice and to do the right thing. She has empathy and fairness and will stand for what she things is right. She never gives up. From the personality aspect: she is funny, easy to relate to, incredibly kind and sweet. She relates to people and finds the way to approach and communicate, but underneath that layer of kindness her strength and resolve is just magnificent. Her personality helped to make the oposition comfortable and trust to the resolution of the case with a great decision that defeated all the unreasonable requests that were done by the other part. I strongly recommend her and her firm. They never gave up and they treat me as family with repects , kindness and i felt they did really care to help me. So they did!

I was going through a custody battle where I had temporary custody. Leah did not only help get the outcome I had hope but made the process as painless as possible. Her level of empathy and compassion made me feel at ease that I was in the best hands. Leah was knowledgeable and experienced in the fie...ld, being able to answer all my questions. I would recommend her services without any reservation.
