About
Experienced. Compassionate. Collaborative. These three words define who I am and what I offer to my clients. I have been practicing law in the Twin Cities area since 1986, helping families and their children find positive solutions to their problems. I started my career as an associate attorney with Strusinski & Associates, P.A. in St. Paul. I handled the firm's family law practice, gaining extensive experience handling divorce cases. After several years, litigating these cases began to leave me and my clients feeling dissatisfied and disillusioned with the adversarial court system as a means for resolving the complicated, unique and often emotional issues presented in divorce cases. Fortunately, Minneapolis attorney Stu Webb, conceived of the Collaborative Law Process, whereby attorneys, along with trained financial and mental health professionals, assist parties positively restructure their families, while supporting the emotional landscape of their divorce. Conflict is reduced and you avoid the economic and emotional strain of litigation. I became increasingly interested in Collaborative Law, and left Strusinski & Associates, P.A. to train in and focus on this process. In 1991, I founded my own firm devoted to helping clients through the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area resolve their family and marital disputes through more peaceful methods. I have spent the last 26 years developing my Collaborative Law Practice, earning a reputation for excellence among clients and colleagues alike. Collaborative Law is now practiced in 24 countries and has been a groundbreaking method of alternative dispute resolution.

Leslie was a pleasure to work with as my divorce lawyer. She was professional, knowledgeable, caring and always responded quickly and thoroughly to my emails and phone calls. Most importantly though was that she was a strong and effective advocate for me in seeking spousal support as part of my divorce settlement. I would highly recommend her services and wouldn’t hesitate to seek her counsel in the future.
Leslie is my hero, Leslie is honest and always returned my phone calls and emails quickly. Leslie looked out for me and is very professional.. Thanks David
She was everything I could have asked for in a lawyer...thorough, knowledgeable, clear, creative, patient, understanding, kind and flexible. She kept me, and the other professionals, on track and on task. She answered all the questions I had and many more that I didn't know I should ask. After the negotiations had dragged on longer than anyone anticipated and I discovered I had lost track of a detail that was important to me, she graciously listened to me rant while speaking wise words about endings and struggles, giving me both the words and the space to believe the best about the outcome.
she made it all easy. just had to sign and show up.
I was extremely happy with Leslie as my attorney for my divorce proceedings. She was knowledgeable, kind, caring, dedicated, upfront, honest and most of all made me feel completely taken care of. I didn't have to worry about what was next because she told me what was expected, needed and how we would handle it. You can tell that she cares about her practice and clients. I felt like I was her only client, knowing well enough that that was not the case. She would be my first contact should I ever need her services again. Hopefully I won't! Leslie definitely knows her stuff and works hard for her clients. Excellent and professional in all she does.
Leslie was so organized, thorough and competent with my divorce case. She was efficient and reasonably priced as well. Made me feel confident that my case was in her expert hands. She was always available via phone, text or email and made a difficult process more reassuring.
