Leslie Nixon - Manchester Workers Compensation Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

Leslie Nixon Bio
I have been practicing trial law since 1981. I grew up in New Boston, New Hampshire, where I still live with my husband and 4 children. I graduated from Goffstown High School, attended Smith and Dartmouth Colleges, and was admitted to the New Hampshire Bar after graduating from the University of Pennsylvania law school. I joined my father, David L. Nixon, in the practice that was then known as Brown and Nixon and is now known as Nixon, Vogelman, Barry, Slawsky & Simoneau. I believe that as lawyers, we owe our clients representation not just in court, but also in the community and in the political process. As a member of the New Hampshire Legislature in the 80's, and during the entire time I have been practicing, as a leader in the New Hampshire and American Associations of Justice, I have advocated for the rights of consumers, workers, and people injured by the negligence of others. One of the activities of which I am most proud is my pro bono representation of the family of a man killed on 9/11, when one of the planes crashed into his office building. As a result of my representation, their award from the Victims' Compensation Fund was increased substantially.  My leadership positions have included President of the New Hampshire Trial Lawyers' Association, and member of the Board of Governors of the American Association of Justice. In my practice I concentrate in medical negligence, workers' compensation, and employment law, but I have been invited to speak and have represented clients in all areas of injury and discrimination law.
