Honest and Knowledgeable

I had telephone consultation with Leslie. She listened to my situation carefully. Asked the right questions and gave me advice about how to proceed next. In the advice, I could clearly see that she had put mine (client's) best interest first. I would definitely hire her for her work ethics and knowle...dge.

Devoted attorney til the job is done

I was referred to Leslie by another DVPO attorney. I have to say never does any attorney work overtime non sleep til morning to meet deadline not because she waited til last min but because she is constantly a step ahead of what is anticipated response from other party. I slept at midnight she wor...ked Graveyard til Noon deadline. My hearing is not here yet for a few days but the preparation this woman does is OUTSTANDING. I didn’t want to write a review now in fear she will be too busy for my case but I thought its only fair to give credit where credit is due. Although I made my retainer minimal I know Leslie has well over exceeded her hours I paid her. But never once she ask for more money. I was hoping she would so I can pay her for her time. :-) happy to! My case got from complex to completely extremely complex. From dvpo to family law to overly complex. My great appreciation to Leslie for working non stop to get it done no matter what it’s takes. that’s a HUGE quality hard to find in an attorney. Whatever the outcome maybe in court I know we have put our BEST FOOT forward. Her details to attention maybe too much BUT it’s necessary because it’s ALL ABOUT FACT FACT FACT to the judge. Not talk. Thank you Leslie. My child and me greatly appreciates all your hard work. Thank you

Solid attorney who knows DV/Family Law

I met in person and had consulted with Ms. Irwin regarding a custody matter. I found her to be very professional, knowledgeable, sincerely and a great problem solver. She knows family law/DV matters and was a good listener and empathetic to my needs. I would highly recommend Ms. Irwin's services....

Positive Experience

Our family was very impressed with Leslie Irwin. From day one she handled an extremely complex domestic violence divorce case, involving a parent and young children, in a superb manner. Leslie goes above and beyond as an attorney, working all day and night if necessary . She is not a 9-5 attorney.... Leslie makes you feel heard and validated! She treated our situation as if it were her own, keeping us all safe. Leslie Irwin was knowledgeable and she had the professional connections to move the case forward resulting in a positive outcome. We have the utmost respect for Leslie Irwin, and we highly recommend her.
