Excellent corporate counsel.

My company has worked with Lee for years. He has extensive experience in all corporate matters that have come up, from entity formation to complex investments to acquisitions. I would highly recommend him.

Business lawyer | Jun 26

Relationship: Co-worker

"Lee is knowledgeable about the latest developments in the law and is skilled at negotiating the best outcome for his clients while navigating clients and other lawyers through complex transactions. What sets Lee apart is his skill for relating to his clients and clearly explaining complicated concepts to them, and his ability to assist his clients in making decisions where there is not always a clear path, with successful outcomes. Whether a large company or an entrepreneur, Lee dedicates himself to each of his clients, taking the time to understand the client’s legal needs and recommend the best and often most practical solution for their needs. For these reasons, Lee inspires a unique trust and loyalty from his clients. It is a privilege to work with them."

Mergers and acquisitions lawyer | Jun 18

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have worked with Lee both cooperatively as co-counsel, and as opposing counsel, on several significant M&A transactions. Lee will be a tough negotiator for his client, but also balances that aggression with a desire for efficient and courteous resolution to a transaction. He is detail oriented and a pleasure to work with. I recommend Lee without hesitation."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
