Leslie Cole Associates, Inc. is an internationally recognized security management consulting firm offering assistance in planning, training, organizing and managing, with emphasis on security-related litigation avoidance.
Leslie Cole Associates, Inc. has two (2) primary goals. First, to provide a safe and secured environment for our clients’ most treasured assets - People. Second, to assist clients to plan and adequately implement a security program. This includes identifying departures from acceptable industry practices, policies and procedures, and minimizing crime in establishments open to the public.
Since establishing the firm in 1983, Leslie Cole, Sr., our court-tested principal and expert, has handled over a thousand cases in 20 States, the District of Columbia and the Caribbean. In the process, we have testified in over 600 depositions and trials.
While we are not advocates, we are usually on the winning side of the cases that we handle. We work harder and smarter and that may be the reason why we are known more for our work as experts. We accept every defense case, but we are highly selective as we accept cases from Plaintiffs only when we are convinced that there was a deviation from accepted security policies, practices and procedures.
