Leo the Hero!

I hired Leo to represent me in a car accident case. A person had run a red light at a major intersection and hit me. The person said that i had been the one to run the red. Thanks to Leo, he was able to prove that I was the victim of the accident. During the course of the case, he always kept me upda...ted on the process and always got my input on anything to make sure that I was the one in charge. There were a few hiccups along the way but none that he couldn't handle. I'm very glad I hired him to represent me and will do so again in the future if need be.... hopefully there won't be a need haha

If you are looking for an honest,no-nonsense, ethical lawyer, Leo should be your choice.

I have been dealing with a complicated legal issue which involved disputing a claim filed by a rental car agency to my insurance provider. There were just so many moving parts in this that I was almost forced to maintain a notebook to recollect all the pertinent points every time I would speak to som...eone. Despite the best intentions and efforts by my friends and acquaintances, I failed to find a lawyer who could adequately grasp my situation, let alone represent my case or provide me legal counsel. By chance, one of the referrals led to Leo, being utterly desperate and frustrated with my prior experience, I have called him, not sure if he would understand my concerns. But I was wrong. Not only did he get the problem but he would ask and specifically point out the nuances of this case which myself failed to notice. We had multiple consultation sessions going over different parts of my case. He was patient, probing and reflective while discussing the case with me. If need be he would provide clarifications and chalk out possible scenarios involving appropriate legal options. In the end, he also suggested the solution that worked best for my case to resolve it amicably with minimum hassle. As a client, I found him extremely circumspect, knowledgeable and personal with professional standards.I would recommend him with utmost confidence to present your legal matters.

Best decision I made in my personal injury case.

I was injury in a car accident and was pretty lost as to what to do. I got in contact with Leo and he did not waste time to get my case rolling. He was very honest in time frames and didn't give any ideas of false hopes or impossible outcomes. I really hope I never get in another car accident resulti...ng in injury, but will surely have Mr. Kishinevsky represent me if it happens again.
