Click to report rating    5/8/21   3     1     1     3     1   Leigh is very rude, arrogant, and full of herself. In fairness, she is a knowledgeable lawyer but she has nearly non-existence compassion or ethics. She also interrupts opposing counsel in court, which is terrible. Comes across as a mean person. If you want a bully type of a lawyer, she is for you. RID: 228742
     12/12/19   2     1     2     1     2   Does it sound like Leigh Sherry wrote the last comment? It speaks for itself. I had her as a lawyer; and wasn’t satisfied. I went to 4 consults with known family lawyers in town. Only 2 had heard of her. 1 said “she’s still in family law?” Sometimes you need more than $500 shoes and skill at manipulation and need to know the law and work with the other lawyer to save ME money - not make HER FIRM it. I left. She’ll post a comment a week after this no doubt. They should verify IP addresses more. There’s just something off about that whole firm. Money, money, money is all they care about. I care about my kids. That’s the difference. RID: 216885
Click to report rating    10/12/19   5     5     5     4     5   I am a career professional and dedicated father that has dealt with a very high conflict custody and child alienation campaign for years. After retaining two other prominent family law attorneys over the years previous, Leigh restored my faith in an arguably flawed family law system. Ms Sherry was presented with my file at a very volatile moment in time, with a very low probability of saving the my custody, child access, or being able to add value given the circumstance. She exceeded my expectations, moved the file forward for for my son, protected access and his rights to his father. As a member of the oldest family law firm in Calgary, Leigh has earned her status there in my view, certainly earned my respect and absolute trust with my case. Must notably, Leigh Sherry has three dominant and natural strengths that set her apart from the rest; 1-attention to detail of the law and its every 2-an extremely strategic mind 3- a tenacity to for her clients, taking cases she cares about.

     8/23/19   2     1     1     1     1   I lost my daughter because of picking Leigh. The other side offer more before Court. She arrogantly promised that we could “beat that” at Court - and $35,000 later - guess what, we didn’t. She’s awkward in Court and does not convey confidence - as though she’s looking at the file for the first time. She cost me everything. All that money and she ran a pointless Trial and lost. And Iost on that money due to failed promises and Joe I’m an every other weekend date. Thanks Leigh. I hope you enjoy being paid for literally nothing. Watch out about no set amount consults - they seem to milk it for 2 hours for nothing. And they charge when they photocopy’s piece of osier hit :) cents. RID: 213884
Click to report rating    4/16/19   1     2     1     1     1   I wasted what little I had, on nothing. I gave her a 2 in communication because about all she did it manage to charge a 1/2 of time to send me a letter from the other lawyer. I wish I would have just done on my own. I would have been better off. Watch this firm for consult too. Won’t give you a set price and they try and run up the cost. Should have been the first red flag. RID: 210390
Click to report rating    3/20/19   5     5     5     5     5   After reading some of these comments I had to write one myself. Ms. Sherry is 100% committed to do what is the best for you, this is what I have found after my experience with her, far more sincere and interested in your circumstances than just a client. RID: 209563
Click to report rating    4/11/17   5     5     4     5     5   Ms.Sherry gave me fantastic law advice and helped me through one of the hardest times of my life. Nobody wants to be at the divorce lawyer (kind of like the dreaded dentist) but I felt at peace with all decisions while there and she helped me so much in terms of the best interest of our kids. She didn't waste my time whilst at the same time took the care to make sure I fully understood everything. She did a great job and I have since recommended her to a friend. RID: 183215
Click to report rating    8/22/16   2     1     1     2     1   Presented pretty good at consult. After she got retainer, things were different. If or when I did hear from her, it was me following up on things she promised to do but didn't. There are better out there. Billing for nothing was my take away. RID: 173280
Click to report rating    4/20/15   5     5     5     5     5   Ms. Sherry was great! She definitley knows her area of law inside and out and is not afraid to go to bat for you in court. Have recommended her to several pepople. RID: 153213
Click to report rating    2/6/13   2     2     2     2     2   Maybe she is too young and just get into family law, I feel she lacks experience and always requires researching for complicated situation. RID: 100131
Click to report rating    11/14/12   5     5     5     5     5   I find Leigh to be a passionate advocate for her clients. Her research, affidavits, and briefs of law are top notch. I would highly recommend her. RID: 94952
