Thank you

Brian made a very difficult time easier. He and his assistant were always there to answer any questions and keep me informed every step of the way. Even after the case was settled he was still there to help us whenever we needed. I appreciate it and would happily recommend him to other families wh...o find themselves in similar situations.

Personal review for Brian Leonard

Brian was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and considerate while handling my medical malpractice suit. He kept me informed of everything going on during this time and gave me answers for all my questions. He told me what steps would be followed and the possible outcomes. His perseverance r...esulted in a good outcome at the end without having to undergo a jury trial. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone needing an excellent attorney.

Medical malpractice lawyer | Feb 14

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Brian is an excellent lawyer who represents his clients aggressively but wisely. I had the honor of defending cases against Brian's father, Jim Leonard, who was, in my opinion, one of the greatest plaintiff's medical malpractice attorneys in Arizona. As good as Jim was, however, I truly believe that Brian has the potential to be even better."

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.
