Boston Magazine recognized Mr. Lee in its 2002 “The
Best Lawyers” edition as one of only four lawyers identified
in the field of Family Law. Following interviews with hundreds of
lawyers, judges, clients and others in the legal system, the stated
determinative criteria were that: “They are very good at what
they do. They are ethical. And they meet the elusive third measure
of quality; customer satisfaction. More than mere technicians, they
are counselors who care.” He has appeared on television and
in print as a commentator on Family Law issues and has been characterized
in news and magazine print as an attorney “who is more interested
in grasping complicated financial issues than in knowing the right
gossip columnists –and he’s respected for it”
and “a good trial lawyer, a scholar of the law, very well
prepared, personable, a nice balance of a lot of skills.”
