I set up an appointment with Leigh to help me on a custody case. She took the time to answer all my questions. She even went into great detail of what chances we have to win versus what we most likely wouldn't receive. I feel very confident that Leigh took this case with the best intent to help me a...

Getting my divorce was one of the loneliest and most difficult periods of my life. Having Leigh as my attorney was the saving grace. With her knowledge, her compassion, and her commitment to me as a client, I was able to go through the process and start my life over. Leigh also has an amazing way ...
One of the reasons I love working with clients is helping them see that they CAN make it. I'm so glad to have been able to be your counsel.

I consulted with Leigh for my divorce early last year. She was extremely knowledgeable and intuitive. She also had a lot of understanding regarding narcissistic abuse in relationships and was able to quickly assist me in getting the divorce finalized in a much shorter time than I had expected. ...
I know what a hard time it has been for you and I'm so thankful you came to my office. Thank you for trusting me.

Attorney Leigh Daniels is not only proficient in her knowledge of the law and legal strategy, but she also genially cares about her clients and the aspect of their lives that their case involves. She was very professional but also treated you as a human and looked at the totality of circumstances in...
I appreciate this review so much. Helping clients with complex issues and abusive narcissistic spouses and partners has become a passion of mine. It takes much more than legal expertise to navigate when personalities of that nature are involved.
"I have had the pleasure of working opposite Leigh on several cases. She has a depth of experience and a dedication to her clients, as well as a positive personality that makes emotional situations easier to address."
"I Have had the opportunity to practice against Ms. Daniel on a number of different occasions. I have always found her to be a worthy advocate for her clients while still being fair and reasonable in her approach to accomplish the same."
"Leigh is a fellow lawyer in the community. She spends a lot of time updating her education and making her practice stronger and does a good job. I have found her knowledgeable and a good advocate for her client. I recommend her services."
"Leigh is an excellent divorce lawyer and a strong advocate for her clients! I recommend and endorse her!"
"I have known Leigh for more than 15 years. She is a fierce advocate for her clients and professional in her interactions with opposing counsel. Leigh is a genuine person and I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Leigh is an excellent divorce and custody lawyer. She knows how to get assets divided and cases settled, but is a skilled trial lawyer as well. I have and will continue to recommend her."
"Leigh is an accomplished and skillful lawyer. When she's on the other side of the courtroom, I know I better have my best. She is tenacious. But, she is also professional and trustworthy, and she is one of the few lawyers I trust enough to refer cases that I am unable to handle."
"She is a passionate advocate for her clients with amazing courtroom presence. She works tirelessly with her fantastic staff. If your case goes to trial, then you want her sitting at your table."
"I have had the opportunity to work both with Leigh and opposite Leigh on a number of cases over the years. She is an experienced and zealous advocate for her clients. She is always a pleasure to work with."

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2006.
Reprimand issued in AL, 2006
updated on 03/02/2017This means the attorney did something wrong, but the State did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
“The reprimand was due, in large part, to my marketing efforts at the time. I cooperated with the bar in taking steps to tighten up my marketing efforts and in doing so was given the opportunity to work directly with the Alabama State Bar to review procedures in my office to insure I delivered consistently. The domestic area of law is one that lends itself to high emotion and upset but working with the professionals at the bar gave me knowledge that greatly has enhanced my practice.”
