Testimonials

“Pete did a great job of handling our case. Neither of us had ever been involved in a suit like this and he guided us through each step.

He let us know what to expect, as well as how best to prepare for the different parts of the case. He also was very concerned with us as people, not just as a case. It was evident that he cared about us and our situation.”

They were patient and upfront about everything. Pete explained the process and he and his team kept me informed at all times. Pete is not your typical lawyer. He really cares about his clients. He’s not just about the money. He’s about what’s right and fair.

Pete told me upfront about what to expect every step of the way. I was asked what I wanted and why. He listened and was honest about what he could and couldn’t do. He is an honest and trustworthy lawyer. I highly recommend him as an outstanding lawyer.”

Testimonials

“Mr. Leehey represented me in an accident where a car caused my motorcycle accident causing me physical damage. He did an excellent job in listening to me, preparing the case, and representing me in getting the insurance company of the auto driver to settle fairly with me.

Initially, they had tried to blame me for part of the accident although I was riding down the road following all of the traffic laws. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney for an accident claim since he was very knowledgeable.”
