Law Office of David S. Leigh

In New York City, you may think there are no lawyers out to fight for your personal interests. However, at the Law Office of David S. Leigh, you’ll find something different. With the experience of a big city and the mindset of a small firm, we represent people, not numbers.

As a seasoned attorney, I will work diligently and tirelessly on your behalf.  I began my career as a prosecutor and, after nearly a decade of private sector work, I have committed myself to defend the rights of New Yorkers and their families.

As your attorney, you will find that I exhibit a powerful combination of proven legal expertise, solid communication skills, and hands-on trial experience.  I can also bring to the table:

• Excellent and strategic case-management skills with the experience required to remain highly focused and self-possessed in fast-paced, demanding, and exacting environments.
• Highly developed and effective communication skills with a proven capacity to gain the support and respect of court officers, peers, jurors, and witnesses.
• Proven ability to generate solid research, draft persuasive motions, and negotiate fair resolutions.

These skills combined with my strong sense of professional integrity have contributed significantly to my successes as well as my achievements. I thrive on challenges and — rest assured — will spend the time and effort it takes to defend your rights.  Every defendant’s circumstances are unique, and a defense attorney’s discretion and experience are vital when determining whether to pursue a trial, plea arrangement, or an alternative sentencing platform.
