Profile
I have had a very successful and rewarding career a a trial attorney. I have dev
oted my legal career to the practice of state and federal criminal law, at the t
rial and appellate level. It was an obvious path for me, having been a police of
ficer before attending law school. I am now seeking a second career. I would ver
y much like to teach and have a particular interest in teaching non traditional
students, working adults and people seeking to advance existing career opportuni
ties. I would also like to explore as an alternate path, working with disadvan
taged, low income or other at risk people to prevent, ultimately, entanglement
in the criminal justice system.

ergy and commitment to endeavors that I undertake. I am a team player.
Referrals
I find it uncomfortable and unnatural to speak about myself. Referrals, both pro
fessional and personal will be provided under separate cover. I will, on this re
sume, provide two comments about me, provided by others:
"Mr. Leahey is one of the finest criminal defense lawyers in the state of Texas.
I can tell you that for a fact, because I used to try him on a regular basis an
d he is a very, very good lawyer. You are not going to be bored by the lawyer in
this case" 161st District Court Judge, John Smith, Ector County, Texas.
"Counsel's knowledge and ability to cross examine on the complicated and technic
al issue of the manufacturing process...bordered on astounding in some instances
." U.S. Federal District Court Judge Robert Junell, Western District of Texas.
