About
Leslie is committed to addressing each of her client's family law needs in a timely manner. She prides herself on being responsive to her clients’ questions and concerns and advising them of all options available. Staying open-minded and creating out-of-the-box solutions is the key to assisting her clients to resolve their family law issues. Being a native of York County, Leslie is familiar with the legal community. She attended Central York High School and York College, where she graduated summa cum laude in 2004 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice and a minor in psychology. In 2007 she received a Juris Doctorate from the Widener University School of Law in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. After working as a legal intern at a local York County law firm from 2005 through 2007, then becoming an associate attorney at two local law firms from 2007 and 2011, Leslie opened her own practice in 2011. Leslie is admitted to practice law before the Courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. She is a member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association and the York County Bar Association. Leslie is a member of the Family Law Section of the York County Bar Association, serving as the secretary in 2010 through 2012. Leslie also received training to become a Mediator and a Collaborative Professional in 2009. As a result, she is also a member of the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals and Collaborative Professionals of Central Pennsylvania. Leslie served as a custody conciliator in York County from April 2013 through March 2015. In March 2015, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court implemented a rule prohibiting attorneys from practicing family law in the county in which they also serve as a conciliator and/or mediator. As a result of the new rule, Leslie was unable to continue serving as a custody conciliator in York County. As a custody conciliator, Leslie assisted parties in reaching agreements with regard to their custody schedule. If the parties were unable to reach an agreement, Leslie submitted suggested temporary orders to the Family Law Bench for implementation pending trial. In this role, Leslie has gained extensive knowledge of the York County custody process. Leslie is able to implement the skills gained as a custody conciliator to assist her clients faced with custody matters.

I highly recommend and endorse Leslie S. Arzt as a Family Law expert. Her knowledge of the Military points system for pensions and the division of assets was outstanding. She saved me a considerable amount of money. Leslie always took the time to make sure I was well informed and understood my options. I particularly appreciated being able to email her with questions which she promptly replied to. She is simply the best!
Leslie and her team were right by my side through my whole ordeal. From being extremely prompt in answering all of my questions to filing paperwork in a timely manner. Very personable and friendly. I'm sure I will contact Leslie in the future for any needs I may have. She made my divorce as painless as it could possibly be. Also had custody agreement done as well and I couldn't be happier with how much they actually took the children's best interests into account. All in all extremely pleased with Leslie's services.
