Samuel Lea focuses his practice on appellate law and litigation support.

Prior to joining the firm, Samuel was a solo practitioner for seven years and primarily focused in the areas of family, criminal, dependency and appellate law, however, his passion has always been the appellate arena. Having the opportunity to return to a team environment at Kubicki Draper and being able to focus on research and writing to support clients and the litigation team, has been a dream come true, for Sam. He is passionate about supporting his fellow team members and always giving his clients his best.
