Posted by Durga | September 20, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Patent Application

Great Attorney

Leo helped me get 2 utility patents for an apparel design. Many of the attorney's I approached weren't sure if it was feasible and the larger firms that did were much more expensive. Leo was amazing! I highly recommend him!

Posted by John P | August 30, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Limited Liability Company (LLC)

Professional and experienced attorney.

Leo has been my attorney for many years. This time he helped to set up partnership agreement and Llc between a few family members. It was complicated in many aspects and Leo always took his time to explain all the legal terms/ pros and cons in our specific matter. I can honestly say and recommend Leo... for all you business legal needs.

Posted by Michael T | August 25, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Trusts

Honest and Professional Attorney.

Leo was highly recommended to me by a friend, who has been working with Leo for over 5 years. My mother recieved a settlement from a automobile accident. Since she is recieving Medicaid, she was required to set up a Special Needs Trust. Leo recieved all the necessary approvals, and filed a court peti...tion. During the entire process Leo and his office kept us up-to-date on the process. They also helped to set us up with a non profit trust company, for the SNT. I highly recommend Leo.

Posted by Alexandra l | August 21, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Great Attorney. Highly Recommend!

I would like to thank Leo for helping me through a long, stressful and complicated divorce. He helped me get through my darkest days, when It seemed like there is no end to the long divorce and custody battle. Needless to say, I got more than I ever hoped for in the divorce settlement, and full legal... custody of my children. Leo was highly recommended to me by a colleague, who was in a similar situation a few years ago. I can say that I am extremely happy with my legal representation, because Leo's main priority was representing my interests. Thank you again for keeping me calm when I needed to be, all my endless emails, phone calls and questions that were always answered. All your guidance and knowledge were always on point. I highly recommend Leo to all my family, friends and anyone in need of any family and divorce representation.
