Unprofessional

She did not even say hi, how are you and how my day is...She did not acknowledge my situation. she asked a single question, put me on hold, I did not even understand what she was trying to do. Felt like she was eating her sandwich, she asked a question... put me on hold...got another bite then said s...orry we cannot take your case. I would not even waste my time to call this lawyer. I made the mistake and lost two minutes of my life!

AMAZING

I found Lesly on Avvo after searching and searching for someone to help me with my sensitive employment case, I called her and received my consultation. I then hired her and from that point on I had a peace that I was being taken care of. Every email, phone call, and question got answered in a timely... fashion. She helped me through out the whole process and was a huge support to me through out it all. This being the first time hiring a lawyer I was nervous and didnt know what to expect. I received nothing but the best when hiring Lesly, she is kind, professional, smart and caring. I'm glad she was a part of this chapter in my life. Thank you for everything Lesly.

Lesly; a TRUE expert in her fields!

If you are seeking a knowledgeable, confident and personable attorney, (and I hope you are!) you've just found her in Lesly. I am going through a difficult and very tricky case with a former Employer. Sadly, because it involves an incident outside of California, Lesly would be unavailable to hel...p due to that venue. I am promoted anyway to write the review and recommend her simply because in my almost 30 years in sales and customer support; I can very quickly and accurately asses whether a person is the "real deal"... or full of worthless talk. My ONLY disappointment; is that I can't hire Lesly for this case! Please reach out to her / staff today. You don't want to "settle" for anything less! See what I did there? Seriously- call.

Knowledgeable and responsive attorney

I contacted Lesley via Avvo.com based on the reviews I read and she replied almost immediately. I was seeking advice on employment law. Lesly advised me on the law and, as a result, I was able to negotiate a more equitable severance with my former employer. Lesly gave thoughtful and prompt attention ...to all of my questions. I highly recommend her services.

Excellent Lawyer

From the day I walked into her office I knew things would go well she was very reassuring and knowledgeable and took the time to explaine things that I didn't understand always made sure I had documents sent to me and kept me up to date on progress and what was up and coming . She is somebody definit...ely want on your side . I was very pleased and happy and would use her again and refer to anybody I know . Thank you for all the hard work and sticking by my side for a year .

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.
