Meet the Invictus Law Team

You’re Not Hiring One Attorney. You’re Hiring an Entire Legal Team.

Z

A Disciplined Team Approach

At Invictus Law, our team is built to restore order when legal challenges create chaos.

Whether a client is facing a criminal charge, a family law dispute, a military legal matter, or a security clearance concern, our attorneys and staff work together to provide clear guidance, strategic preparation, and steady support from the beginning of the case through resolution.

Our clients don’t hire a person. They hire a team.

Z

Experience Matters

Every client benefits from the combined knowledge, experience, and support of our entire team. While one attorney leads your case and serves as your primary legal advocate, that attorney is backed by experienced paralegals, legal assistants, and administrative professionals who work together to keep your case moving forward.

This collaborative approach allows us to prepare more thoroughly, communicate more consistently, and provide a level of service that simply isn’t possible when everything depends on one overwhelmed attorney.

Our Attorneys

Each of our attorneys brings unique experience and perspective to the firm. Together, they collaborate on strategy, share ideas, and leverage one another’s strengths to help clients achieve the best possible outcome.

Rather than working in isolation, our attorneys regularly discuss complex legal issues, evaluate strategy, and draw upon one another’s courtroom experience. That means every client benefits from the collective knowledge of the firm—not just the experience of the attorney assigned to the case.

Meet Our Team

Behind every successful legal matter is an exceptional support team.

Our paralegals, legal assistants, client service professionals, and administrative staff play an essential role in every case. They coordinate deadlines, prepare legal documents, communicate with clients, organize evidence, and help ensure every detail receives the attention it deserves.

When you contact Invictus Law, you’re not waiting for one attorney to find time in an already full schedule. Our team works together so questions are answered, documents are processed efficiently, and your matter continues moving forward.

I highly recommend Eric Leckie. 1. He truly cares about his clients and their needs. 2. He does everything in his power to provide you with the best possible outcome. 3. He actually listens to his clients and is extremely accessible whenever you needed him 4. Even after his job is done he will follow up with you to make sure you’re on the right track I was facing a 1-5 year sentence per my guidelines on a DUI 3rd. Not only did my DUI 3rd get reduced to a 2nd but he also got my other 2 charges dropped and I only had to serve 20 days. He worked hard for my family and I and I appreciate him beyond words can express. If you’re in need of a lawyer for whatever reason, Eric is your guy. Thank you again Eric I am home with my kids because of all you’ve done for us!

I cannot say enough great things about Invictus Law and especially Eric. He did an amazing job from start to finish. Professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and truly cared about making sure everything was handled correctly. He kept me informed throughout the entire process and made what could have been a stressful situation feel much easier. His attention to detail and dedication to his clients really stand out. I highly recommend Invictus Law to anyone looking for trustworthy and effective legal representation.

This law firm is amazing we had the opportunity to work Shameka c. Hankins and she was very professional, very helpful, very respectful and easy to work with. She went in with a plan with very short notice of our case and got the temporary hold dismissed. I would really use this law firm if I ever need to again and would highly recommend them to others . Thank you again for your help .

I wanted to give a big thanks to Invictus law and my Attorney Shemeka C. Hankins on helping me win/close my case! First, I came to this law firm with a case that was 1 week away looking for a family attorney to help represent me and they did not turn me away they offered me with help immediately. Secondly, My Attorney Shemeka C. Hankins was the best! She made sure I was comfortable and showed me that she cared it wasn’t just about the money ,she sincerely believed in me and wanted to help me. I was stressed and nervous but when talking to her I was confident and ready to take on my case and everything that came with it head on. She was very professional and confident, that alone gave me hope that everything would be okay. I’ll recommend this law firm 100 percent to anyone who is in needed of help!!

Thank you to the outstanding legal team (Yvonne Beasley and Erica) for your guidance and support during a very stressful and unfamiliar legal process. As someone navigating a trial for the first time, I deeply appreciated the professionalism, patience, and knowledge provided throughout every step of the case. Your ability to explain details clearly and help me move forward with confidence made a difficult situation much more manageable. I am truly grateful for your dedication and support.

Why Our
Team Based Approach Matters

Legal matters don’t pause when an attorney is in court, attending hearings, meeting with another client, or taking a well-earned vacation.

We Work as an Integrated Team

Because our attorneys and staff work as an integrated team, your case continues moving forward even when your lead attorney is unavailable. Team members understand the status of your matter, deadlines are monitored, and work continues behind the scenes. Important tasks don’t sit untouched while someone waits for a single attorney to become available.

Multi-Perspective Approach

Cases are reviewed from multiple perspectives. Strategies are challenged and refined. Important details are less likely to be overlooked because more than one experienced professional is invested in your success.

The result is a more responsive client experience and a better-prepared legal team.

One Goal. One Strategy. One Team.

Whether you’re facing criminal charges, navigating a family law dispute, protecting your military career, or addressing a security clearance issue, our entire team is committed to one objective: helping you restore order and confidently move forward.

From your initial consultation through the resolution of your case, you’ll have an experienced team working together on your behalf—preparing, communicating, planning, and advocating every step of the way.
