5 Star Business Attorney

I hired Laurie to provide legal advice to the business aspects of my law practice. Her process to work through the issues was very thorough and her advice was extremely helpful. I appreciated that she charged a flat fee, which I felt was quite reasonable. I will use her services again and highly reco...mmend her.

Absolutely the BEST attorney in JAX!

Laurie Lee is the quintessential small business attorney. I was moving to JAX and she helped me every step of the way to make my life easier in purchasing a new business and lease negotiation. Her use of technology and response time are like no other I have experienced. I would recommend her with the... utmost confidence.

Absolutely the BEST attorney in JAX!

Laurie Lee is the most efficient and responsive attorney I have ever encountered. My wife and I recently moved to JAX and bought a business. We found her on the internet and were glad we did. Her business knowledge and use of technology created a streamlined process. I have been in business over 30 y...ears and never engaged a more professional, knowledgeable and efficient attorney as Laurie Lee. I would recommend her highly for all your business needs.

Great Legal Mind

Laurie has done a great job fixing my mistakes from when I "played" lawyer, and she has help protect our small company with some great legal work. She also has the patience to take us through the legal complications so we have a stronger understanding.

Epitome of Legal Professionalism

I hired Ms. Lee to represent my law firm in a merger of professional associations. As a lawyer myself, I have high expectations regarding the service to be provided. Ms. Lee met all of them, and exceeded most. She is knowledgeable, thorough, and precise. In corporate transactions where anticipati...on of future problems is crucial, Ms. Lee is exceptional. Not forgotten is the level of patience she showed me as I asked constant questions. Not only will I recommend her, but I will return to her as needs arise. I won't go anywhere else.

Avvo Rating

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.
