Larry M Leach made my difficult more barable.

On June 15, 2013, my wife walked away from our marriage. when it became apparent that I needed to make a decision to protect myself, several friends suggested Larry Leach. I did not want a divorce; I did not want to be separated; but when I sat down in his office, Larry asked the questions I needed t...o hear so that I could make a rational decision. He didn't push divorce nor did he suggest there was a way around the Separation. Larry gave me honest knowledgeable advice and then supported the decision I made. He and his office were there for me every step of the way in availability by phone or email. They explained every step of the process and stuck with me right up to my final decision and divorce decree. Thank You Larry M Leach and Assoc.

Divorce and Custody help needed to hired Larry Leach

Larry asked briefly for my side and concerns, ONCE, others arose, the children were being badmouthed and caught in the middle (very young 2 and 1) he did nothing to work with the other attorney to stop this. My ex wife applied for a restraining order and got it because Mr. Leach advised that we shou...ld not contest it as it might make her mad, that hearing was held as a status conference. in our four way conference we were given no true financials for my ex and now three years later her actual financials were never received although we had to agree to something on the Sworn Financial Statement and we did. He filled a response to my ex wife's petition for separation but I did not find out about that filing until a year and half later and from my new attorney. He did not help prepare me for court, I had NO IDEA that I would be taking the stand for anything, he had had me prepare financial exhibits and I thought we were there only to separate our assets but then found out that we were there primarily to discuss custody which I tried to do but wasn't prepared for, my ex lied about our relationship and everything in it and Larry did not redirect me on the stand to address her statements or redirect me so I could completely answer questions posed by opposing counsel, we lost. Three years after the fact and hundreds of thousands of dollars later I am still in court, even post divorce, fighting for things Mr. Leach should have addressed while he represented me but did not. Our children have been forced to not see their father for over 8 months now and this is our current struggle post divorce and thankfully without Mr. Leach we are winning.

Divorce Proceedings

Larry was very knowledgeable of divorce proceedings. He always saw the bigger picture, where I would get stuck in the weeds (emotions) and he was the voice of reason.

Client Susan Williams

Larry is an excellent lawyer. His attention to detail and his thoughtfulness was very important to me as I went through a very lenghty divorce process. Larry was always concerned about my well being and the well being of my children throughout the whole entire process. He worked with me as my legal ...fee's mounted and never once denied me representation as he understood what I was dealing with and he helped me get through the process to not make what I was dealing with more stressful. He always gives me good legal advice and helps me come to agreement that have been in the best interest for both me and my ex-husband. He know's the law business 100% and I wouldn't trade him for any other lawyer because he is the best. His compassion for the law and just being an upright citizen gives other lawyers a good reputation which is totally lacking in the legal community. I still utilize Larry and plan to keep him as my lawyer as long as I have to endure legal proceedings.
