Ethical, Trust Worthy, Remarkable Character

Mr. Feuer is an exceptional lawyer, I was in a difficult situation and in need of help from an ethical attorney who would actually advocate on my behalf. Choosing the wrong attorney previously was costly in all areas, financially, emotionally, and the experienced diminished my faith in humanity, unt...il Leonard Scott Feuer, Esq. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe this attorney. I will be forever grateful, he’s one of the few honest, descent attorneys in FL. I’ve relocated back to a state where true justice is served, my experience with FL.’s legal system was corrupt at best, with the exception of the incredible lawyer who I was Blessed to find.

The fiercest defense

Leonard Feuer may very well be the fiercest defense attorney in South Florida and is obviously a product of many, many years of deep study in the practice of criminal defense. Leonard's time is of potent intensity and that was clear to me when I read the transcripts of his direct examination of the ...trooper in my case during a deposition as well as the trial (which I witnessed in person). Leonard's thinking process extends beyond that of your average attorney; he thinks like an engineer and then he executes a strategy that no one can see coming. Aside from that, the guy is quite likable and wears his integrity on his sleeve. But.....hopefully I'll never have to hire him again =].

Best Attorney You Can Hire.

I hired Mr. Leonard Feuer based on his vast knowledge and experience. He kept me in the loop with phone calls or text messages all through out the case. He was highly recommended by another attorney in Ft Lauderdale. He was able to get all of the charges DISMISSED in a relatively short period of tim...e. He showed professionalism, dedication and compassion to my family and myself during this difficult time for us. If any criminal charges were to come up with any friends or family. Leonard would be the one I trust to go see again. Thank you for all that you did for me!

The best experience I could have hoped for, after my DUI arrest

After getting arrested for DUI, I emailed and called nearly every criminal defense attorney in the area (probably around 25 different lawyers). Leonard was the first to call me back (literally minutes after I emailed him, on a weekend). He took the time to personally explain the situation, listen t...o all the details on my case, and overall make me feel more comfortable with exactly how all this works. After finishing our talk, he gave me a quote (which was very reasonable), and I told him I'd call him back. After that I spoke with all the other lawyers I contacted, and was shocked by the difference. The majority quoted 5-10x what Leonard did, and overall acted like they didn't care about me or the case. So I hired Leonard in the end, and couldn't be more happy with the decision. Although my case didn't qualify for the DUI diversion program, he was able to talk with the prosecutor and get the penalties reduced (even though another person, with an identical case that day ended up with much worse). After attending court with him, and getting a sentence less than I was anticipating, I couldn't have been more relieved. After the case was over, I mentioned to him that I might need to travel out of country at sometime during the probation. He explained how that works, and that if I needed his help in front of the judge ever, he'd do it and wouldn't charge me any more. Well that day came, and he kept true to his word. Not only that, but the prosecutor and judge knew him, and it was approved much easier than I could have expected. Overall, it was a relief having him as my attorney. And I can say with 100% confidence that he is better than any of those attorneys asking for a small fortune. Honestly if you're unsure, just give Leonard a call yourself, and I'm pretty sure you'll see what I mean.

"I endorse this lawyer. Leonard is a quick study. In this instance, he was more akin to a prosecutor, trying to close down the angles, than a defense attorney. The family issues were sensitive. The extended alternate representation complicated both our tasks. In the end, each side recovered and compromised, justice is served..."
