Your Search Is Over!

Leslie was the only lawyer that I interviewed that gave me hope that what I was seeking was even possible in the state of Florida. She is very experienced and felt after reviewing the facts and listening that I had a chance and would make every effort to meet my objective, always reminding me that t...here are no guarantees. She is a very methodical thinker and myself, being highly emotional because my divorce involved a two year old child, always kept me calm and focused on what the objective was. Leslie does not get caught up in all the minutia that other lawyers like to throw into the ring to drag things out or that try and divert your attention off the main issues. Once she knows what she is up against, she works with you in creating a game plan and does not deviate from it. Leslie will always make you aware of everything that is going on. Moves and/or decisions she needs to make, she discusses with you first to get your sign off before doing them. Leslie is no push over and can be tough when she needs to be, yet open minded to things that make sense and might gain a quicker resolve with less expense to her client. Leslie is lawyer that is not about money, but one that fights for what is right, fair, and in the best interest of her clients. She is always there when you need her, never having to wondering when and if she is going to get back to you or not. She is well respected in her field by many and deserving so! You are not doing yourself justice in your search without making her a part of your interview list in your search for a good attorney!

Outstanding representation with integrity

Leslie represented me in a high profile divorce case that included ongoing nasty chicanery by my ex-wife, and an opposing attorney that probably should have been sanctioned for unethical law practice. It was during these disappointing times that my emotions were high and rational thinking was low. Le...slie always provided a solid, calming spirit that allowed us to professionally work through the various tough issues objectively. She always stayed on the high road and never got sucked into the dirt. I was especially impressed with her recommendations to bring in outside counsel for intricate business and valuation issues beyond her scope of expertise. This demonstrated she was looking out for her client's best interest and not concerned about generating maximum fees for herself. Quite the contrary, she was continuously reminding me of the risk versus rewards regarding whatever actions we contemplated. She made every effort to minimize legal actions and maximize settlement discussions. If you are looking for a highly competent and honest family law attorney that is a pleasure to work with, look no further.

Excellence without avarice

Leslie was recommended by an acquaintance in the legal profession. I wanted a competent, trustworthy lawyer who knew the ropes, but not one that would needlessly "stir the pot" just to keep building legal fees. If you have not been through a divorce, I assure, this is easily done. Unfortunately, m...y ex-wife chose an avaricious, blunt instrument for her legal counsel who did nothing but churn her client to maximize fees without any real desire for meaningful progress. Leslie could easily have taken advantage of this situation, but she did not. Instead, she remained a trusted and steadfast advocate even when I was feeling frustrated by the whole process. It seems natural for her to promote what is best for the entire family. She's tough when she needs to be tough, but always open to finding middle ground if that is her client's wish. She does not make careless mistakes or miss deadlines. If she feels she is out of her depth, she will tell you. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone seeking a lawyer for family law.
