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.
