Having never worked with an attorney, I was completely lost when it came time to find one to help me through my divorce. Leanne Deuman was recommended to me and I hired her, hoping she would explain the process and help guide me through it. At first, she acted aggressive, like she wanted to really go after my ex. I told her I wanted to pursue a less 'cut-throat' approach, and she immediately seemed put off by that, like it made her lose interest in my case. She failed to propose an interim order of child or spousal support, or to even tell me there WAS such a thing (I didn't know until it was too late). She rarely returned calls. She never told me what to expect. She allowed my ex-husband's attorney to take the lead on drafting our divorce, which of course gave him every advantage. When I objected, Ms. Deuman seemed indifferent and told me I should just go along with it. She basically stopped participating in my divorce and threw me to the wolves. Because of her indifference, I was lost in the process and I unknowingly gave up many of the rights and benefits to which I would have otherwise been entitled. She did not listen carefully to my questions; she did not take my concerns seriously; she showed little interest in actually ensuring I received a fair divorce settlement. She seemed to assume her clients 'know the drill' which, of course, I did not. I needed her guidance and got nothing. No clarity, no support, no one fighting for me. If you are looking for an attorney to serve as your legal advocate, to provide you with effective, supportive, informative representation, PLEASE keep looking. I will forever regret my decision to hire Ms. Deuman. I should have changed attorneys before my divorce was finalized.

She is an attorney who will happily hurt children in minor visitation situation in an attempt to make money. A child's best interest would be served not to have Leann represent you. What a horrible woman.

Leann skirts the line of the law when you retain her. She is very good at telling you what you want to hear and not producing results. She struts around like she knows what she is doing in the court room but you can tell that she does not have a clue what is going on. She should stick to drafting wills or chasing ambulances. She really should chase a few ambulances because she could stand to lose a few hundred pds. Worst attorney ever.

Leanne Deuman worked on a case for us about 27 years ago on a case regarding a skidder. she impressed us because she didn't act like she knew all the answeres but would listen & check out things. was honest & fair. she has taken care of all our legal needs since then. We would trust her with anything & would tell us if she felt someone else could do a better job for us. She has taken care of our wills, and other cases since then. I know she will be honest & give me good advice. she handled our adoptions
