    We contacted Esther Lee for help navigating a dispute with our Condo Association involving discrimination based on disability. Esther helped us understand our rights and worked hard to find a solution. Without her, we probably would have accepted a settlement agreement that gave too much away and left us feeling like unwanted guests in our own home. She demonstrated that she understands the problems facing people with disabilities and knows how to protect their rights. Every time I asked a question, Esther either had the answer at hand or knew where to find it. Unlike so many lawyers, she is responsive to questions and believes that an informed client is a happy client. Her fees were reasonable and her work was excellent. We could not be happier!

    I supervised Esther when she worked with us as a summer law clerk. One of Esther’s strongest traits was her extraordinary work ethic. She was eager to engage in new tasks, hard-working, and responsible. When necessary, Esther worked well past the traditional work day to complete assignments.

    I noted that Esther had sound analytical skills, wonderful interpersonal skills, and was easy-going and friendly.
