I HIGHLY RECOMMEND LESLIE GARCIA. BEST LAWYER EVER!

I hired Leslie June 28, 2014 to represent me in a Divorce. My Divorce was to be amicable and thought I would not need to hire an attorney. As things started to happen that were questionable, I decided that I may need some representation of my own. I found Leslie Garcia thru my company's Employee Assi...stance Program. I knew from the moment I sat down with her for a consultation, that I wanted to hire her. She was professional and also personable. She explained how the process worked and made sure I understood. She made me feel comfortable and confident that she would be there for me, as I knew she would. She answered my questions and also returned any phone calls or emails in a timely manner. She fought hard for me and did not give up until I was satisfied with the results. I would HIGHLY recommend her. In my opinion, she is the BEST LAWYER EVER!

Uncontested divorce with children involved and large amount of debt

Leslie was amazing. She was recommended by a friend of a friend. I had talked to another attorney before meeting Leslie and just during our initial consultation she asked me way more about my situation than the other attorney. She was willing to answer all my questions to make sure I had all the fa...cts before choosing which attorney I wanted to use. Leslie helped me limit the time I had to take off work to deal with my divorce by holding our meetings via phone and utilizing email to review and discuss documents. My divorce was an uncontested divorce that involved minor children and a large amount of debt. Leslie helped make sure that what I was receiving in the divorce was fair and would follow any state laws concerning child support and visitation. Leslie made sure everything went smoothly and that the case was filed and the final divorce decree was signed by the judge quickly. Leslie also helped make sure my employer had the proper paper work to withhold child support from my paycheck. While a divorce can’t be painless with everything involved Leslie was at least able to make the actual process as painless as possible. While I hope I never need to use her again for a divorce I will recommend her to others and use her for a Will in the near future.

Highly Recommneded, Job Well Done

I had several real estate documents in need of preparing and it was obvious that an attorney was needed. I happened to stumble across Ms Garcia and I'm glad it was her. The documents were prepared in a timely manner and Ms Garcia even went out of her way with assisting in the whole filing process. No...t only was she very helpful but the high energy, gracious and personable characteristic attitude that she provided was very welcoming. I will continue to use Ms Garcia in the future and will highly recommend her to my closes family and friends.

Posted by anonymous | July 28, 2014 | Child Custody

She's the worst thing that happened to my case.

Leslie Garcia is by far the worst thing that could have happened to my case and was the best attorney on the case for the person who sued me. She would take a long time to get back to me, if at all, late to EVERY court date, she would get rude with me because I didn't know her job, after more than a ...year she still didn't even bother to know my 2 children's names. I was accused of mentally abusing my children by the other party because my kids no longer wanted to go with them, so a forensic psychologist came up. Leslie did not even tell me it was not about abuse but a custody evaluation and didn't even explain to me what that meant nor that it was optional as it was not court ordered because of anything I had done. I asked her several times if it was just to determine I was not abusing my children but she never answered and then yelled at me for not understanding afterwards. She was a fast talker but let me down at every turn. The WORST part of the whole thing is her sheer incompetence of the law which caused me to loose full custody. If she would have know ONE VERY IMPORTANT sentence, which I had reiterated upon MANY times, the entire thing would have been dismissed and my family and I could have gone back to life as normal. She cost us thousands of dollars & tore apart our lives. I would have been better off on my own.
