Leah is at the pinnacle of her profession. She is highly regarded and respected by her peers and the judiciary. The prosecution knows she is a formidable opponent and that she will take a case to trial without hesitation if she thinks that is what serves her client best. Attorneys that don't try cases don't get excellent outcomes for their clients. Leah trys cases and as a result, she gets excellent results for her clients. She is one of the best in all of Florida.
