Leo Boyle Esq.


Self Description

Third-Party Descriptions

January 2002: "Instead, the president of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America, Leo Boyle, called almost immediately for a moratorium on liability litigation dealing with Sept. 11, and lobbied aggressively instead for a government-sponsored fund to compensate the victims. More than 3,000 attorneys have volunteered their services since to help the victims' families surrender their right to sue -- and to enrich lawyers -- in return for access to money from the government fund."
