About
I am here to help you if you have been injured on the job, been in an accident that was caused by someone who was negligent, if you are the victim of a crime, or if you have been treated unlawfully in the workplace. I have handled cases at every level of the state and federal courts in North Carolina. Our law firm believes in communication. It is our policy to keep you informed about what is happening in your case at every step. Outside of my work, you can find me involved in Hillsborough Rotary Club activities! I love Rotary because it's an organization committed to bringing everyone together for the common good, here in North Carolina and around the world. I am also involved in my church, St. Philips Episcopal of Durham. I represent working people because of my past experience having to support myself as an auto parts worker, house cleaner and waitress.Attorneys Leto Copeley and Valerie Johnson (aka the “Law Sisters“) even have a podcast about Sexual Harassment in the workplace. Learn ways you can protect yourself from Sexual Harassment by listening to their podcast series, Sex at Work, available on the Law Sisters website, Apple Podcasts, Google Play, TuneIn, and Stitcher.

Took my workman comp case. She did a wonderful job bc my company said my injury wasnt work related.i work for them 20 yrs..
Since hiring Leto Copely and team, we have not only not regretted it, but we know each day how lucky we were to find her! In addition to Mrs. Copley’s educational experience and numerous accolades for her work over the years, she is also the advocate you want on your side if you ever find yourself or a loved one in an unimaginable situation. Another thing that was a pleasant surprise after meeting and hiring Leto is that she has a team of paralegals and assistant attorneys that are second to none. When you are the best, you attract the best team around. The reason the entire team is so important is that it’s not just Leto herself who is responsive, compassionate, patient, intellectually unparalleled, and to top that off the most kick-butt attorney (think pit bull with a smile) out there, but she is surrounded by those with the same qualities. I can’t tell you how devastating our personal situation has been for our entire family. You would think that we would dread the legal side, but with Leto Copely’s firm, it’s the opposite. Every interaction we have with Leto and team, we feel built up again, not drained. Finally, we can sleep again at night and take care of our family knowing they are in our corner as advocates, a support system, and the most strategically brilliant team out there! My step mother and sister and both attorneys from Ivy League schools, and they too believe Leto and team are the best we could have hired. That to me said it all! So far, every step of the way, that has proven to be unfailingly true. So, if you want an attorney who has a passion for what they do, is highly intelligent - both intellectually and emotionally - with a team of the best, who get results, and who does this work in a quiet way that doesn’t expose your family situation to the press... this is your firm!! Don’t think twice. I have never had one moment where I second-guessed my decision, and we interviewed at least 10 firms. Good luck in your search, but if I were you, I’d know my search is over, and call Leto today!
Leto Copeley and her assistant are AWESOME! My emails are always answered very quickly and I get a direct answer to every question I have. I am treated like a human being and not just another case for this firm.
The law firm of Copeley, Johnson & Groninger is very supportive of their clients. Attorney Copeley’s paralegal Kathy Bobbitt is always available with a calming presence. As a client, they supported me and took a personal interest in my case in order to receive justice. I would highly recommend them. They earn a five-star rating.
Leto was highly recommended to me for a personal injury case. She is killer good and tough as nails. At every step of the process she kept me involved and informed. I felt very well prepared for the deposition and mediation. It was fascinating to witness her achieve an excellent settlement for me. I hope I never need her services again, but I would work with her in an instant. Leto is the best.
When I first hired Leto I was a very sick client as the result of injuries sustained at work. There were witnesses who gladly agreed to witnessing the "freak" accident that lead to my inability to function with little quality of life. Workers compensation representatives denied me the care I needed to survive. Once Leto came on board she went to court 8 times on my behalf and won each time. The outcome was that WC was ordered to allow me to be treated for my injuries as well as, pay for my treatments. I fell at work 12/11/02. I will always we in pain and live with the results of that awful moment. After all these years Leto continues to stand strong when WC employees decide that I am not entitled to the services or medications I need. Every time I call her office, her staff get right on the situation to resolve the issue in real time. I will always we appreciative of the work Leto and her staff have done and continue to do on my behalf.
This firm will leave no stone unturned. Leto and her paralegal Kathy were awesome! I was never worried about anything because I had faith in them!! This group makes you feel like family and that's exactly how you are treated!! I highly recommend them! 5 stars isn't enough!
I was a union officer for 30 years at a factory in Wilson. Decades ago we started getting involved in helping our members with worker comp claims. For the last twenty years or so we worked with Leto. She was fantastic!!! I was disabled at work and she settled my claim for $260k after her fee. This was not unusual. She handled a number of other people's claims just as well. My daughter was involved in an auto accident and Leto and her associate got her a settlement after a jury trial. Can't speak highly enough about the people I worked with that she has helped and continues to help. Phil Sternfeld Wilson
