Leo Duval is an exceptional attorney. He took a horrible situation and helped guide me through the process. He is patient, knowledgable, and an active listener. He maintains contact and communicates often. I am thrilled I hired Leo Duval and recommend him highly.

Leo is a very compassionate and great guy. He goes above and beyond for clients and will always be available to answer calls and texts. He has helped my family tremendously.
Leo Duval honestly saved my life. As soon as I met him I saw that he was about his business, I saw how hard he worked and most importantly I saw how committed he was to his clients. If you need a lawyer that's ALL ABOUT YOU, I Highly recommend Leo Duval and his team!!

I was seeking legal advice involving a DUI in which I wasn’t able to drive to work and it was threatening my carrier, which I’d spent years building. All that work potentially wasted. Mr.Duval guided me through the prosses and assured me everything would work out for the best. Not only did he get me a great outcome but he was an absolute gentlemen throughout the entire process. He didn’t just treat me like a cash cow he treated me like a family member that he really wanted to fight for. Not just for the money but for me, would highly recommend.

I was in the middle with a domestic dispute with my wife who got me arrested on false charges and also brought me into family court, with issues involving custody and child support. Leo not only got my criminal case dismissed but helped my wife and I mediate other problems. My life would have never been the same if I didn’t meet Leo Duval. Would highly highly recommend.

I was charged with possessions and distribution. Leo Duval was suggested to me by a friend do to his ability to get miracles deals and charges dropped for all my friends. So I figured I’ll give him a shot. He completely blew all my expectations away. He cut me a deal with the court and got couple and saved me time in jail. Would highly recommend Leo for any legal advice.

I was recently introduced to Leo Duval through a mutal colleague. If you are in need of an attorney, I highly reccomend contacting Mr. Duval. Though, I did not use him for a legal dispute, I know he will help all customers due to his professionalism ane experience within the courts.
Certainly, he is one of the best NYC attorneys I have been introduced to.

I was accused of murdering my husband of 6 years. To which I went to trial for 3 years. During this time I sought the counsel of Leo Duval. These three years felt like an eternity. Mr.Duval made me feel like not just a client but a friend. He doesn’t just want money he wants to help you. Throughout this process Mr.Duval assured my family and I that everything was under control and will be ok. He wasn’t just there for me but my parents as well. He answered every phone call no matter what time of day or night it was. Whenever my mother would call him in a panic Mr.Duval always calmed her down and reassured her that it will be ok. We put our trust and faith in him and he delivered in which he got all charges acquitted in front of a jury and saved my life. Needless to say I’d recommend him to anyone seeking legal help and we will be friends for the rest of our lives.

I was charged with unlawful sexual misconduct which was consensual and after a year and a half of a nightmare for my family. Mr.Duval cleared my name and reputation and I was able to re-enroll into college and continue my studies. Mr.Duval has honestly saved my life and has changed my life for the better.

Leo Duval is one of the most intelligent gentlemen I’ve ever met in my life. I had a DWI case which was my second offense and I really thought this was it I’m done, there’s no paddle for this sinking boat I’m in. However that was before I met attorney Leo Duval. Do to his immense experience with the courts and the local judges in my area, he was able to get me a favorable resolution. Which was really border line miraculous. Leo is really an invaluable lawyer and without him none of this would of been made possible.

This is for Fran Ric (thanks for calling me out) .... the truth speaks loud and clear! Leo is living proof that reviews are not always real. He is friendly that is true and does return calls, that said from day one I was given the wrong legal information. One example is he told me that I did not need him to represent me at the dmv because the police never show up...guess who showed up! When I lost the DMV portion of the case a neighbor of mine was also their for the same reason, his attorney said that leo lives in Massachusetts and that could be a reason he did not want to travel to Manhattan. Because he was represented by his lawyer he did not lose his license. when I meet Leo and tell him he started to apologize saying that never happened before, but I wouldn't have won anyway?? Once again I go over my defense with him and ask him if he requested the paperwork from the DA office, Nothing yet! ( this is approximately 10 days after our first meeting) and nothing is all he did, mean while i paid him in full in cash...not knowing that Leo should have draw a attorney/client contract ( as proof of service)..and as far as I could see their was no secretary or paralegal in his office the four times I was there. ( a one man show) He is a joke in the courtroom...in one instance he forgot I had a court date, the judge was providing me with a attorney from the legal aid society, when I asked the other attorneys if they saw leo, they looked at each other and laughed. Well he did make it into the courtroom that day...two hours later but not to represent me. I even watched the judge tell him that his case was the oldest in the system and needed to be over! At that point I realized he had no plan's to defend me....just take whatever the court offered. FOR INSTANCE, HE ENTERTAINED THE IDEA OF ME WEARING A ANKLET..FOR 3 MONTHS. HE NEW THAT I HAVE A PERFECT DRIVING RECORD. THE NEW LAWYER WAS ABLE TO SHOW THE COURT MY DEFENSE AND I paid a $300. fine ...life went back to normal...switching lawyers saved me thousands and a criminal record LAST I LEFT OF WITH LEO HE WAS DRIVING TO HIS SONS WEDDING AND HE WOULD FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH HE WOULD REFUND ME. Here is a update when I took the issue to small claims court, he didn't show up

I couldn’t wait to come on Google and write my overwhelmingly positive review and stumbled upon a false review. It’s unfortunate that people looking to gain financially or status points (especially negative because everyone loves to read the negativity). In response to the “local guide” review I wish to call you out. Since none of your reviews can be seen, It’s obvious that you write bogus reviews and your opinion, contrived. Mr.Duval has changed many lives for the better including mine. He is super smart, caring and knowledgeable, and has been a loyal local lawyer for over 20 years. I’m thankful and blessed to have him as my lawyer.

Confident, Committed Attorney!
Mr. Duval is truly a life saver!!
Early this year, I hired Mr. Duval to defend false accusations made against me that arose out of a bitter custody battle.
While it was probably one of the worst experiences of my life, Mr. Duval kept me calm and focused the whole time, and never let me worry about the frivolous things.
In less than three months, my case was essentially dismissed and sealed, and I am especially grateful!!
Mr. Duval is hands down, the best and nicest attorney I have ever had the pleasure of meeting! Unlike most, he really cares, and will work very hard to secure the best outcome for you and your case!!!
And finally, Mr. Duval is an attorney you will actually be able to contact and speak with directly!!

Duval the man. He got my man out of rikers when he was facing extradition to Florida. He also helped him get his drivers license back. Worth every dollar. He works with you on a payment plan and fights hard in the court room. He went above the call of duty. You wont be sorry! Thanks leo! Your the bestest!

The perfection of this attorney must be unmatched as he works miracles and has such a kind heart. He really cares about each case and you have a sense of calm when he is near. Wish I could give more than five stars.
