Leonard is Focused

Leonard deals with insurance companies. That's all he does. I like that because he knows what button to push to shorten the claim process. He settles cases efficiently with his expertise in insurance law and in practice.

Mr Desir is an Excellent Attorney

Hello there, My name is Hallea Hall, owner of Hallea Hall Realty, Inc. I met Attorney Desir, few yrs ago, when he represented me on an Insurance claim. He was very professional, attentive and fought for a quick and satisfying settlement. I have since referred several clients to him and they all... have been very pleased with his service, professionalism and the settlement amount on their cases. He is caring, he listens and fights for his clients. I will be referring more customers to Attorney Desir.

Posted by Nancy | October 11, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Thank you Mr. Desir.

Our first conversation was with my panic while I was overwhelmed with grief for the water damaging of my beautiful home. The damage was extensive with water breaking through the first floor ceiling while having flooded the entire second floor. The uncooperative negligent plumber as company owner wa...s threatening me with his anger and fear. Mr. Desir had been attentive to me throughout the entire liability claim settlement process as he stood strong representing me. His professional calm, precise demeanor and knowledge with skillful expertise, was successful beyond my expectations. Mr. Desir is a dedicated attorney who diligently worked to win during a very scary time of ruin.

When my insurance company did not want to pay our claim for hurricane damage, I hired Leonard to handle my case. He was informative and always followed up quickly with my calls and questions. After a few months of negotiations, Leonard help us settle our case. We were happy to close this out and move... forward. Thanks Leonard.

Litigation lawyer | Jun 30

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I am an appellate attorney, and recently had the opportunity to work with Leonard Desir on a first party property damage case, after being retained to assist with trial preparation. In working on this case, I reviewed all of Mr. Desir's legal work, including his written filings with the court and deposition transcripts. His work was very impressive. After I was retained, Mr. Desir's legal skills continued to impress me, and I also found him to be ethical, considerate, and an excellent communicator. Mr. Desir ended up settling the case for a full recovery too. Based on my experience with and observation of Mr. Desir's work, I highly recommend him."

"Lenny Desir is a tenacious attorney who I have personally observed go to bat for his clients time and time again. He is exceptional at getting insurance companies who deny or underpay claims to pay his top dollar and pay his attorney fees as well because they do not want to face him at trial."
