This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE, HUMBLE AND VERY EFFECTIVE

LEE IS A VERY EFFECTIVE ATTORNEY AND IS WELL RESPECTED AMOUNGST THE LEGAL COMMUNITY. ANYONE WHO HAS EVER LITIGATED A CASE AGAINST HIM KNOWS THAT HE IS AN EXTREMELY CAPABLE ATTORNEY. I KNOW OF MANY ATTORNEYS WHO HIRE LEE IN A VARIETY OF CASES BECAUSE OF HIS ABILITY AND PASSION FOR THE PRACTICE OF LAW.... I HIRED HIM ON A CASE WHERE A CLIENT WAS SUING ME FOR A BASELESS CLAIM ON FRAUD. I HAD BEEN REPRSENTING MYSELF AND ULTIMATELY DECIDED TO HIRE LEE. I COULD HAVE HIRED ANYONE IN THE STATE, BUT I CHOSE TO HIRE HIM. ULTIMATELY THE CASE WAS NON-SUITED BY THE PLAINTIFF BECAUSE OF LEE'S EFFECTIVENESS AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE LAW.
