Leslie is without question the finest HR lawyer that I have been associated with throughout my very lengthy HR career. She has exceptional knowledge and presentation which has enabled me and my team to promptly resolve countless issues and most importantly to gain appropriate knowledge to continuous...ly enhance our own awareness and capabilities. Leslie is supported by an industry leading team of lawyers each of which specializes in a diversity of common and uncommon legal threats. Amongst Leslie's many professional gifts she is patient, an excellent communicator, knowledgeable, thorough, confident and timely. Leslie brings a professional yet calm, easily understandable approach to our interactions. I am honored to endorse Leslie and truly pleased to recommend her.

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.
