The best in a contentious situation

Leslie made a very painful process into a process I could handle. She understood my position immediately and advocated strongly for my best interests which included my children's well being. She was extremely knowledgeable and very frank about options and why she recommended certain actions. Leslie... ensured that I was provided with a fair settlement and never recurred to insults or questionable actions the way opposing counsel did. Leslie supported and encouraged the decision to remain cordial with my ex-husband who I would be co-parenting with for many years to come. My settlement was what I wanted and I am thrilled that Leslie and her associate Meghan (the absolute best as well) represented me. Leslie and Meghan were a pleasure to work with during a very difficult time. I cannot recommend them enough

Smart, Patient and a Clear Communicator

I couldn’t be more grateful for Leslie's support during a challenging time. From the start, Leslie was patient and understanding, always making sure I felt heard throughout the process. She promptly responded to my emails. What stood out the most was her ability to explain everything in clear terms, ...making complex legal matters much easier to understand. Leslie knew exactly what aspects of my case to focus on and when to let go of things, ensuring the best outcome. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a divorce attorney!

I picked a winner!!!

Leslie Sullivan is everything you would hope your lawyer would be and more. She was honest and straight forward about every aspect of my case. Leslie is smart, sharp, extremely knowledgeable, patient, genuine and a true warrior. I will always be grateful for everything Leslie did for me and my family....

Work Done Well

I worked with Leslie for nearly a year on post-divorce details, collecting overdue funds. I found her patient, thorough, and aggressive when need be. She was ideal. Calm, but tough...and she essentially predicted every move my ex would make. She worked well, even with a mildly hostile opposing lawyer......I am highly satisfied with the work she did for me and highly recommend her to others.

A gem

Leslie is a gem. We worked together for over two years. She's competent, compassionate, and patient. Always returned every one of my calls, and ultimately guided me safely through a harrowing process. I'd recommend her in a minute.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
