Having lived in the Atlanta area since attending Emory School of Law 20+ years ago, Leslie has been a Roswell resident since 2014. The Bassett household is Leslie and a bunch of boys:  her sons Zack (18 years old and rising college freshman at GCSU), Sam (15 years old and rising sophomore at RHS) and three male Cavalier King Charles spaniels. Family activities include baseball, community service, solid dedication to grilling all things protein, family Sunday dinners, hiking, and making a point daily to unexpectedly be kind to at least one person for no personal gain. 

As a local ERISA/Employee benefits dispute attorney, her law practice is currently the opposite demographic dynamic of her home, comprised of all female attorneys in the Dolvin House on Bulloch Avenue.  She is also a mediator and handles mainly complex commercial litigation dispute resolution. 

Leslie joined Roswell Rotary as a member in the heart of the Covid era, April 2020, sponsored by Jim Gray, her dad’s orthodontic school buddy.  Having made the transition from the large law firm lots-of-travel life to a small boutique firm anchored in Roswell, she finally had the time and inclination to grow local roots and give back to the community. 

Fun fact:  When the boys were little, she owned a farm in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, spending 4 months of the year in bucolic bliss.
