Lee Runyan

Lee Runyan an accomplished software engineer, always wanted to make a difference, to help people. Writing computer games, social websites and software for test equipment was not really accomplishing his goal of making the world a better place. So after years of working at his chosen profession, trapped in a cubical, staring at computer monitors all day, with hardly any human interaction, he packed it in and went to lawschool. Prior to lawschool, Lee had personally experienced the frustrating and difficult process that accompanies almost any encounter with the legal system. As an attorney, Lee hopes to help his clients have a smoother less expensive and less frustrating experience with the legal system.
