Leslie has been an attorney and advocate since 2013, fulfilling a dream she’s held since third grade: to give a voice to those who need it most. Operating her solo practice in New Bedford, Massachusetts since 2022, Leslie focuses on Social Security Disability claims, estate planning, conciliation services, and supporting nonprofit organizations in achieving their missions.

Licensed to practice in Massachusetts state courts and the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, Leslie earned her undergraduate degree from Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts and her law degree from Suffolk University Law School. She brings deep commitment to her work with vulnerable populations, drawing on years of volunteer experience with Greater Boston Legal Services handling Social Security Disability cases for both adults and children, as well as elder law matters.

Beyond the law, Leslie serves on the board of Row New Bedford and is pursuing her US Rowing referee certification. She’s an active member of the community. When not advocating for her clients and members of her community, she enjoys being in a book club and spending time with friends and family.

Leslie’s practice reflects her core belief that everyone deserves skilled, compassionate legal representation—a conviction that has guided her path from that third-grade aspiration to her work today serving the New Bedford community.
