She knows California family law and the local bench so well that her assessment of your case is very likely to be spot on. Unfortunately, it may be the opposite of what a client wants to hear. She will not sugar-coat her opinion; she will explain her reasons and advise what are possible options. Anyone who is considering what attorney to hire in a legal matter, should first check the state bar record for disciplinary actions -- Leslie has none after 30 years of practice, then look up her listing in Martindale-Hubbell. Leslie is rated Preeminent 5.0 out of 5 by clients and Distinguished 4.4 out of 5 by her peers. I trust Leslie with my most important personal matters.

In addition, no refund was ever issued at any point during or after her services. The information she provided during my case was incorrect, and her lack of punctuality and attention to detail had significant financial consequences for me.

I stand by my original review and encourage others to do thorough research before choosing an attorney.

Outdated and Underwhelming - Not Suited for Serious Planning…read more If you are accustomed to the speed, precision, and forward-thinking expertise required for complex financial planning in places like the Bay Area, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. This attorney's practice feels like a legal time warp, and frankly, I was shocked by the lack of professionalism and modern competence. The entire process was painfully slow. Responses to simple emails took days, and his advice on handling modern assets--like founder stock, complex LLC structures, or even just high-value digital assets--was bafflingly vague and seemed rooted in probate law from 2000. We are in 2025, sir. It's clear this firm operates in a bubble where a simple will and trust for a single-family home is considered "complex." They simply do not possess the necessary sophistication or urgency to deal with the high-stakes, multi-jurisdictional financial realities that professionals in San Francisco or Silicon Valley face. His boilerplate documents and hesitant manner would be laughed out of a downtown SF office. Bottom line: What might pass for acceptable, relaxed-pace counsel in Modesto is a non-starter for anyone requiring true, detail-oriented estate strategy. This attorney would not survive a week in a competitive market. Save your money and the headache; find counsel that understands modern wealth, not just small-town bureaucracy.
