We recommend Leonard

In probate court, Attorney Veronica Leonard did an outstanding job representing our family. Our family member requested a guardianship petition and later a guardianship dismissal through the court. Leonard's communication skills, presentation skills, professionalism, and diligence in completing the t...ask were noticed. In addition, her concern for her client was noticed. Attorney Veronica Leonard is highly recommended by us.

Don’t trust her

She represented me and promised she would get a specific outcome. I recorded the initial meeting. She told me I could trust her based on her experience and if I hired her she knew what to do. She billed and didn’t scoumplish one goal she said she would. You should know if you hire her, ask her to put... her opinion of the outcome she expects in writing.

family matters

handled a very delicate matter involving the death of my mother and sibling warfare with concern and high professional standards.

Veronica Leonard is a competent and caring attorney.

I recently retained Veronica to submit a "domestic relations order (DRO)" for me from start to finish. I really liked that she charged me a flat fee to do the job! She was very efficient, knowledgeable, accessible, trustworthy, responsive and kept me well informed throughout the process. She even ...did a couple of things for me unrelated to the task she was hired for, out of courtesy and free of charge! I would certainly recommend Veronica Leonard to anyone looking for a great attorney in evey way.

Veronica did a great job for me.

I am happy to recommend Veronica Leonard to anyone in search of an aggressive, well-informed family law attorney. My divorce case was very contentious, and she did a great job resolving problems quickly so as to keep my legal fees as low as possible during a very difficult divorce. The custody ...of my daughter was a major concern to me, and it was to Veronica as well. She had a clear grasp of the issues that were a concern to me, and was well informed in the area of domestic violence situations. She was extremely accessible, and totally fair with her billing. I would certainly recommend Veronica to anyone.
