"Leila cares deeply about her clients. Representative of her commitment to her clients, in one particular case, Leila spent dozens of hours editing a mediation video presentation to ensure that it perfectly captured the essence of the case. A graduate of the Gerry Spence’s Trial College, Leila takes the time to properly “frame” her case and then executes her plan. One of Leila’s clients commented that “she knows everyone.” That is not too much of an exaggeration. Leila is well known in her local Fredericksburg Bar (she is listed as a “SuperLawyer”), as well as the community at large. I think that Leila knows so many people because she likes being with people. Leila bonds with everyone that she encounters, in every walk of life. I think that she has a special place in her heart for clients that have lost everything and have no one in their corner. Leila is a strident advocate for her clients. In turn, from what I have discerned, her clients love her."
""How are you, dear?" were among Leila's first words to me when I called fifteen years ago for her input on a particularly challenging case I was handling. Since then, I have known Leila's devotion to her clients and justice, generosity as a lawyer and friend, and insight as a lawyer and advocate. Leila is a human first, on top of being an excellent lawyer. I happily refer personal injury victims to Leila."
