Leanna built the firm’s workers’ compensation practice from the ground up in 2012. “I truly enjoy practicing in this field and I’m grateful for the opportunity to help, educate and guide injured workers in this area of the law, which can otherwise be extremely intimidating and challenging to manage as an injured worker alone,” she said. “I take great pride in being their advocate in a system where they are essentially powerless against the insurance companies.”.
