Hired Attorney Elinor Leary

I was represented by the Veen Firm in a case that went to trial. My injury was caused by a law enforcement K9 that was running free in my neighborhood. The lead attorney representing me was Elinor Leary. She was amazing leading up to trial and her trial techniques were even more amazing. The other attorney that sat in with us was Cliff Smoot. He was a great addition to the team and helped Elinor throughout the trial. They make a great team. Kudos to all the people behind the scenes that helped as well. I recommend this firm 100%.

Hired Attorney Elinor Leary

I had originally hired a lawyer with no federal court experience so he hired Ms. Leary as a sub. I had moved out of state so we convened by video chat. Ms Leary told me if I went to court, I would get nothing. Her demeanor went from hostile to congenial frequently. She never explained to me the laws concerning oral agreements or anything pertaining to law at all. She and my primary Attorney allegedly arranged a video chat with the Doctor who confirmed I would eventually need a knee transplant! It was a slip and fall case in a store that resulted in a cracked patella and required immediate knee surgery. The video chat with the Doctor cost was $1000. Ms. Leary and my primary then informed me deadlines had passed and the chat with the Doctor was meaningless. I had turned the disbursement of funds over to the Veen Firm because my primary Attorney did not appear to be trustworthy. They then decided to charge me $1000. for the chat anyway.

Hired Attorney Elinor Leary

Beware, this lawyer was completely incompetent throughout my case. I do not recommend her. She had a terrible strategy and didn’t do her due diligence in investigating my medical professional’s backgrounds and much more. I have my faults in my case but Tahoe is suppose to be a professional with credibility but showed otherwise. My friends, who are lawyers, asked her simple questions and inquired about their work ethic to which she had no answer to. This was a painful process that impacted me and my family. I should have followed my gut and fired her at the first sign of their incompetence. Her firm had agreed to reduced their outrageous fees because of how incompetent they were.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
