You Can't Go Wrong!
I paid a substantial retainer fee for an attorney when I initially filed for divorce. That retainer fee had quickly dissolved in a matter of a couple of months. Unfortunately, very little had been accomplished, and I felt disconnected with my attorney. That is when I decided a change was needed,...
"LeAnne is a true advocate for her clients and a great member of our legal community. I highly recommend LeAnne as a domestic relations attorney."
"LeAnne, along with another lawyer, provided me with my first opportunity as a lawyer out of law school. I learned, in a short time, everything there is to know about a domestic law practice. She is a kind and caring person when dealing with clients and absolutely resolute advocate in the courtroom. She has high expectations of herself and her staff and I would recommend her for any possible domestic issue that you might face."
"I have handled numerous cases during the past 15 years with LeAnne as opposing counsel, and she has also worked with me as co-counsel on at least one matter. LeAnne always represented her clients zealously. She takes the time to develop a thorough understanding of the issues and facts related to her clients' cases. This might seem to be a "given" when you hire any attorney, but I can assure you that it is not. I must say that what most impresses me about LeAnne is her confidence in the courtroom and her thorough knowledge of the law. I endorse LeAnne for any family law matter."
