Paul R. Leake

Paul and his staff were very professional and very helpful. I contacted Paul after locating him on the internet. It was a relief to find an attorney who took the time to fully understand my legal status. I would highly recommend Paul for an legal work.

Probate/Estate

Mr. Paul Leake is representing me in a probate (estate) case. Mr. Leake is very knowledgable, professional and has always conducted himself in a positive manner. Mr. Leake has kept me informed every step of the way with this case. Mr. Leake has proven himself to be very trustworthy. I would reco...mmend Mr. Leake to anyone needing a probate/estate attorney to represent them. In my opinion I could not have had better representation - Mr. Leake has done an awesome job in representing me and I am greatful for his professional legal services.

NOT QUALIFIED AS A PROPERTY TAX ATTORNEY

Because of Mr. Leale's failure to return month's of calls, he ended up costing me over $500.00 in penilties and interests on my home owners taxes. This was after he told me not to pay anything on the taxes, until he made a phone call. That phone call took almost 2 months, hence the penilties & intere...sts. He knew i lived on a small disability check and when he finally returned my call...all he could say was, "I'm not going to be able to help you". He could have told me that 2 months prior and saved me a large amount of money!

Probate lawyer | Aug 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known him for almost 35 years and have referred many of my family members, friends and clients to him. I have complete confidence in his legal knowledge and trial skills. I first saw him in a jury trial in the early 1980's and even then he had that something special ability to persuade a jury to see it his way. He's the lawyer I would call first on a legal matter. If he cannot help you in that area of law, he will know who you should call."
