More Than Just an Attorney
Leslie Puzo's story commences in the vibrant heart of Queens, New York, but quickly crosses borders, absorbing the rich cultural tapestry of the Dominican Republic. As a proud Latina, her roots in the Dominican Republic have deeply influenced her worldview. Miami, Florida, became her next canvas, where she showcased academic excellence at Coral Reef Senior High School, emerging as a beacon within the elite International Baccalaureate Program.
Continuing her pursuit of excellence, Leslie ventured to Florida Gulf Coast University. There, she not only achieved Magna Cum Laude honors in Political Science but also deepened her expertise in Latin American and Global Studies.
North Carolina beckoned next. The hallowed halls of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill became Leslie's training ground. Demonstrating leadership and an undeniable zeal, she led the Hispanic Law Student Association as its president, culminating in a landmark achievement—her election as the Law School’s Student Body President. 2015 witnessed her licensed ascent into Florida’s legal constellation, focusing her gaze on Family Law.
For Leslie, Family Law isn’t just about navigating complex legal labyrinths. It’s about the diverse tapestry of human stories, each distinct, each echoing the myriad emotions, challenges, and aspirations. It’s this human element, coupled with her Latina heritage, that fuels Leslie’s commitment to her clients.
Under Leslie's vision, Puzo Law has thrived. Surrounding herself with adept colleagues, she champions a philosophy that prioritizes client well-being. Through strategic litigation, nuanced negotiation, or innovative dispute resolutions, their client-first mantra remains consistent.
