also known as Tori
I’m Tori! Lion Legal Services is my baby, starting as Leigh Law in a one room walk-up office with little more than a dream and crossed fingers. Our success is a mix of trial and error, sheer grit, and cultivating the right team. Today we are Lion Legal Services – a North Little Rock staple, living our purpose to evolve the way Arkansans feel about lawyers by resolving life’s problems with affordable, transparent, reasonable, no-nonsense legal solutions.
My commitment to reasonableness and practicality is off the charts and my meter for emotions is far below the average human being. I’m the friend that gives smart, realistic advice to actually solve the problem, not just cry about it! My desire to be well-liked is not outweighed by my willingness to defend, persuade, and argue my position, whether in my cases, in business, or my personal life. Opportunity is not given; it’s taken.
I’m a certified mediator and handle many of our mediations, obviously because of my commitment to practicality.
I’m a great trial lawyer and thoroughly enjoy taking cases to court – I thrive on the competition. Winning is my favorite thing, no matter what it is I’m winning! In my ten years as a lawyer, I’ve handled many real estate, business, contract, and other civil transactions and litigation.
Today, all of my time is spent on administration & management of the firm, including client acquisition, billing, HR, that sort of thing. Although, I’m sometimes still brought in to conduct with clients thorough emotion-less cost/benefit analyses of time, money, and stress, compared to likely results of given legal strategies.
Mount Saint Mary, Ball State, and Indiana Universities are my alma maters. My commitment to student organizations was strong in high school – I can’t even remember all of them. I’m a Girl Scout Gold Award Recipient, led a Girl Scout troop for several years in college and law school, took a long break and am back to leading a Girl Scout troop today for my own daughters! You think I’m a good lawyer? You should see me peddle some Cookies.
I was boring, nerdy, and predictable in high school (math parties, anyone?) I bloomed in college, pledging a sorority (Sigma Kappa for life!) and law school was the most fun I’ve ever had – joining, like, no student organizations, drinking a lot, and steadfastly refusing to apply for law review (waaay too much nauseating research of ridiculous & impractical things like “how water law is affected by the rise in popularity of poodle ownership” or other such nonsense). Do not even get me started on the citations! As young as I was in law school, I was lucky in my self-awareness, recognizing the torture of forcing myself into a detailed round box when I’m a big-picture square peg.
I managed to graduate in the top quarter of my class and escape the snow and big city life of Indianapolis to come home where I met and married a Levy boy, who is currently the director of Education at the Civilian Student Training Program on Camp Robinson. My husband is very funny and very laid back. We are literally living the American Dream of a happy, healthy family, seeing a great work ethic and community commitment paying off. I love him more today than the day we married, mostly because he always laughs at my jokes and never makes me do the laundry; and, despite the fact he cried when he found out he was having two daughters. He says a third baby is out of the question because “he doesn’t want a boy bad enough to risk having three girls!”
Today I sit on the Board of Governors of the Arkansas Trial Lawyers Association, the Board of Rock City Rescue (an animal non-profit), and am a member of the House of Delegates of the Arkansas Bar Association. I’ve completed several Leadership Academies, including the ABA in 2013, ATLA in 2019, and Arkansas Business in 2020.

BEST Lawyer around
Ms. Leigh is honestly the best lawyer I’ve ever seen & been in contact with. She works so hard to get the best outcome possible and will fight for you and your case! If you need someone who will put you first, give her a call!

Great Advice
I already knew Victoria Leigh as a community-minded leader but had never used her services professionally. We recently had the need for some very serious legal advice on an urgent situation that was emotionally charged. She did EXACTLY what you would pray any GOOD attorney would do: she cut to the...

Excellent Criminal Defense Attorney
I would highly recommend Tori and Lion Legal to those seeking legal help in their areas of practice! I had excellent service and was given great rates, definitely lower than the other firms quoted. Tori was able to resolve my case at the arraignment and work out a dismissal, which was exactly what I ...

Awful
Don’t ever use these people. They will lie straight to your face and promise you they’ll do all this stuff then not do anything. Literally doing it yourself would be better than hiring Tori. She didn’t even spell my ex’s name correctly when she emailed her lawyer. How embarrassing. Tori is an embarra...
For you readers out there, we won this case and he was thrilled at the end of the matter which was about 5-6 weeks ago. He did not pay the balance of his last bill to our office. This week he emails multiple times, demanding we do more work, incur more time, and incur out of pocket costs when he owes us money. Despite his comment that he doesn't have to work because his parents are "his own personal piggy bank," I do not work for free. Upon receipt of the email where I directly told him we are not doing any more work or incurring out of pocket costs without his balance being paid and a retainer deposited to cover the future work, he loses his mind the way only an arrogant middle aged man can: accusing me - weeks later - of not doing a fantastic job, because he's mad that I didn't do what he told me to do. It's amazing to me how folks want "aggressive" attorneys to "stand up" for them, "fight" for them, and not "back down".... but, then get all in a tizzy when those same personality traits appear in the attorney-client relationship, 99% of the time in the context of the attorney refusing to work for free, as is the case here.
"I endorse this lawyer. She has a great business that allows people of any income level to get the legal help they need."
"Tori is one of the most knowledgable lawyers I know in the area of protecting clients from unlawful debt collection, which is not an area of practice that I handle very often. When I have a question in this area, I always call her, because she can always answer my questions or point me in the right direction. She runs a busy practice in North Little Rock, but she always makes herself available to those in need, and especially clients. If you're in need of help, especially in Pulaski County courts, let Tori roar to your rescue."
