        Mr. Aussprung is one of the best lawyers I know in the areas of medical malpractice and wrongful death. He has a brilliant legal mind, and he’s great with his clients. I ALWAYS call him first when I have a client that needs his services.

        Leon is the “total package” for his clients — his unique background, knowledge, personality and communication skills make him an ideal advocate for the rights of his clients

        Leon is so very effective for his clients and he knows the medicine in his medical malpractice cases better than anyone. His experience as a “physician/lawyer” is extensive and impressive.
