In response to Tim..July 2023 review

It is ironic that we had the exact same circumstance...however my expérience was the exact opposite....I received zero contact until my doctor called and threateneed him with legal action. John pressured me to settle. And so forth and so on....One of his clients received the pathetic settlement I r...eceived because someone HURT THEIR FEELINGS! I am happy you had a great experience maybe he spent all his time on your case because my case ironically was the exact same time...I on the other hand will persue malpractice charges if I am not compensated

Stuck with me all the way

My case began before the pandemic hit. Then the lockdown and we just couldn't move forward. John made every effort to reach a settlement in spite of it. The insurance company stretched the process out for 4 long years. John kept me informed along the way and we finally crossed the finish line. Joh...n is one of the most personable attorneys I've dealt with. He doesn't come across as a know-it-all and is open to ideas. Most importantly he provided clear guidance and did not pressure me to settle or ask for less just to close the case.

John Leslie gets the job done

Mr. Leslie is a very great lawyer . He is Extremely determined and honest . He worked very hard to get me a decent settlement and made sure that i wasn't taken advantage of by the insurance company's. Himself and his staff are unbelievable kind and helpful. Mr. Leslie made sure that I was taken care ...of and got my family and I in a rental car so I never had a thing to worry about. He and his staff also made sure that I had a great physical therapist so that my back pains from my car wreck were addressed. I never felt like I wasn't important to him and his team, I was never left in the dark about any of the details in my case and all my questions were answered and I had a great understanding about the process and what was going on. Great communication from this firm. I would recommend John Leslie to anyone who's been in a serious car accident and will be going right back to him again if I am ever involved in another car accident.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2017.

Review Panel Reprimand issued in GA, 2017

updated on 04/21/2017

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case, the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
