Kelly was the third attorney my husband and I worked with on an incredibly challenging case that previous counsel believed would inevitably go to trial. Our case involved serious psychiatric and substance use issues that required careful handling in the family law process to ensure our parenting planhad the strongest possible safeguards. Through this journey, we became acutely aware of significant flaws in the family court system—particularly its prioritization of a parent’s rights, even when that parent has been absent and grappling with these issues for a child’s entire life. Before this past year of litigation, my son’s biological father had spent just 0.03% of his life with him, with long gaps between contact. Every attorney we consulted advised us that this history would not impact the outcome—the system is structured to protect parental rights. We knew we had to fight for our son’s right to safety.
We fought relentlessly to keep our son’s safety at the center of every decision, despite pressures from a wealthy, enabling family pushing for a plan that could allow continued manipulation of the system. When our previous attorney identified a conflict of interest related to a psychiatrist likely to be called to testify, she recommended Kelly LeBlanc to see us through to trial if needed.
From our first meeting, Kelly was confident we could avoid trial, and she was right. We’ve now reached an agreement that includes vital safeguards for our son, and my husband and I finally have peace of mind, knowing we did everything possible within the constraints of a flawed system.
Kelly is a fierce advocate—she showed empathy for our emotional journey while holding us accountable to work within the realities of the legal framework. Our conversations were often difficult, but necessary, as Kelly guided us to acknowledge that, while unfair, certain concessions were essential to secure a safe future for our son. She helped us shift focus from the past to paving the safest path forward.
10/5 stars. Kelly is tenacious, holds both parties (and their counsel) accountable, and isn’t afraid to lean into complexity to achieve clarity and a fair resolution. Our only regret is not signing on with her sooner—her meticulous approach might have led us to an even more secure outcome from the start.

I changed counsel rather deep into a dissolution process that was being disrespected by the other party and thus stalling. Despite the challenge of 'catching up' & notwithstanding existing workload, Kelly LeBlanc stepped in with poise, grace, and the type of respectful honesty I associate more with friends and family. She and her wonderful paralegal Lisa Parsons are possessed of impartiality and supportive worldliness that would be an asset to a spectrum of clientele. These are clear-minded, dedicated women with self-reliant drive and work ethic that has blown me away time and again. The work is streamlined, elegant, purposeful, and this minimizes time & monetary expense – no need for 'fluff' billing for a team so busy producing effective result.
This representation inspires my personal growth, and that alone is success for me. But I also feel confident that I have powerful advocates, and this faith/trust empowers my ability to be present with the life I'm building throughout this process. Highly, highly recommend.

Kelly LeBlanc & Lisa Parsons are absolutely truly phenomenal humans. This team is fast to respond and clearly communicates every step of the process with you. Kelly clearly is a veteran in the field that knows how to handle herself in the court room which was
clearly impressive to me after previous attempts of mediation and settlement was not upheld by the other party making the process super frustrating and timely until we got that resolved by due diligence from my attorney. I’ve definitely learned to trust the process and listen to those who have navigated through many difficult family law circumstances like mine. I’m extremely satisfied and grateful as I highly recommend Kelly and her team to help you and your family too!

I hired Kelly LeBlanc and her assistant Lisa Parson from Envision Family Law, to help me through a divorce, and I’m delighted I did. She was always on top of everything and kept me informed throughout the process. She handled herself very professionally and was great to work with. She fought and worked hard for me to get the best possible outcome in my divorce. Kelly was brutally honest but in a good way. She always told me what I needed to know, not just what I wanted to hear. Lisa, her assistant, was always very quick to reply whenever I had a question or concern. I hope I never have to use their services again, but in the unfortunate event that I do, I would certainly hire them again.

The profession is quite often filled with individuals who tend to be overloaded and more often than not miss or forget areas of great importance; resulting in undesired results and big bills. Ms. LeBlanc may have a caseload no different to her peers. However, her attention to detail, knowledge and understanding of the law, has made her an incredibly reliable asset to have on our side. She has offered a very astute and comprehensive approach when dealing with what may be some of the most important decisions in our lives. We couldn't be more appreciative of her time, attention, and the role she has been tasked with. Thank you.

Kelly LeBlanc is awesome. She has superior skill and experience inside and outside the courtroom; her verbal and written communication skills are unparalleled. Kelly responds immediately to email and phone calls. She was clear and straightforward when discussing her evaluation of our case, and honest and professional when identifying the reasonable outcomes that were likely for us.
We tried everything to avoid trial but the opposing party refused all efforts to negotiate. Kelly understands the court, the judge, and exactly how to prepare for trial. She understood our case was an extremely challenging one, and her legal intelligence and focus enabled her to come up to speed very quickly. Kelly was patient; she understood that we were worn out and emotionally drained.
Kelly sifted through and carefully sorted the multiple documents associated with our case. She and her team provided the judge with a well-planned and reasoned presentation for trial; her trial binder included a tight, accurate, and complete set of documents that laid out the essential pieces for trial.
Kelly’s superior trial preparation set us up for success; those of us testifying were overwrought. She met with us individually to go over our testimony. She reminded us exactly what the judge was evaluating and making a decision on. This helped us weed out the emotional and focus on the important. Her solid pretrial guidance and questions during trial empowered each of us to feel in control, it brought our intelligence to the witness stand, enabling us to keep emotions in check.
Kelly brings integrity, a high level of legal intelligence, an ability to work under pressure, and diligence to her work, all the while supporting her client. I am not sure how she works under these crazy timetables, twists, and turns, but I’m certainly glad we had her on our side. Best of all, Kelly achieved our number one, most desirable trial outcome! I highly recommend Kelly LeBlanc.

Kelly Leblanc is an amazingly knowledgeable attorney. Her dedication on my case, especially on short notice and time restricted really brought out the best in her. Never before have I ever felt at ease and comfortable with any attorney. Being a GAL for a number of years and also part of the Bar Association allowed me to have the confidence in her actions and decisions made on my case. It was actually comforting to know that she and I we’re on the same page striving for the same thing.... custody of my son. Her paralegal Lisa Parsons, was also great in action. She was able to answer all my questions whenever I needed her to. Very thorough the both of them are in making sure I was satisfied with their answers. It’s really hard to find an attorney that you can really trust in, that they’re going to be straight up and honest with you with their answers and not drag you along in the court systems. She is a real go-getter, hard worker, and pleasant to work with.....yet she’s strictly business. Great balance! Her court records says it all.....a true clients lawyer! Thank you Kelly for taking my case!!

I am so thankful for Kelly and her team! I was trying to handle my custody case pro se. I learned there is a lot I don’t know about litigation and technicality’s that can make nightmares come true. I came into her office today, Monday, and learned today was my 10 day deadline to file very important paperwork! Kelly took my case and filed all needed paperwork on my behalf. The professionalism, knowledge and compassion shown regarding my situation has given me confidence I hired the right person. Thank you for taking my case and helping me find a little bit of peace in the most chaotic experience of my life!

My experience with Kelly has been nothing short of outstanding. Kelly has exceeded all of my expectations as a mother up against a father who has the means to use the court to do as he pleases. Kelly has achieved many wins for my children and i continue to use her anytime i am faced with a new challenge and feel lost. All of my fears and concerns quickly fade away knowing that Kelly can take on any issue and problem solve to the point of ultimate peace, which is nearly impossible over the years, given my situation. My journey with Kelly began four years ago when she was able to achieve the highest possible child support from the father of my children who is a master at concealing his income. Kelly is always prompt and responsive to every email and phone call. She takes on every concern i have for my children as if they were her own, and handles it with the utmost urgency. She is thorough in everything that she does, no matter what other cases she is handling, and the documents that she prepares are done to perfection. There are simply not enough words to describe how terrific Kelly is as an attorney. She makes sure that everything is done in a timely manner and if she is not available at the moment, her team of professionals working alongside her are excellent as well. If you have the opportunity to retain Kelly, you most certainly should in a heartbeat. Kelly is worth every penny i have spent, coming from a mother who has worked two jobs for nearly four years to afford my legal fees to protect my sons. You will have the peace that you desire with Kelly working with you.

Attorney Leblanc is a senior attorney with many years of experience. She is especially well versed with military retirement plans and federal retirement plans. She was instrumental in getting my complicated reserve retirement divided fairly between myself and my spouse. She helped find guidance to get 20/20/20 spousal benefits for my spouse (which she earned by being by my side throughout most of my military career). Bottom line, we ended up with a fair divorce with both parties feeling satisfied with the results. Attorney Leblanc pays attention to the details - highly recommend!

Kelly Leblanc is an AMAZING attorney. I wish I would have found her sooner! She tells it like it is. She is tough, honest, sincere, and dedicated to her clients. She is a gem, & I already have recommended her to people, and will continue to do so. Don't waste your money on attorneys who won't put their all in. She got my case dismissed in more minutes. She is respected in the legal community and it showed in court. She was up against a very cutthroat attorney and Kelly ruled the courtroom with just her presence. She was cool, calm and collected and gave me chills just to see her in action! I HIGHLY recommend Kelly to anyone in a difficult legal battle. She is not cheap but you get what you pay for. If you're looking for an outcome in your favor, trust Kelly Leblanc. If she believes in you, and your case, she will fight for you. I couldn't be happier, and like I said, I wish I had found her much, much sooner.
