About Leah M.
Leah M. Wilson is an attorney licensed in Pennsylvania who built her practice on corporate and contract work after completing law school in the mid-2010s. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in political science and public relations from Westminster College in 2013 and a J.D. from Duquesne University School of Law in 2016. Those years shaped an interest in how formal rules and business realities intersect.
At Westminster, Wilson combined coursework in political science with public relations studies. That mix informed an early attention to both policy and practical communications. Her time at Duquesne University School of Law sharpened her legal writing and research. She left law school prepared to move between transactional drafting and compliance questions.
Her early professional years were spent in project and contract roles. In 2018 she worked as a project lawyer at Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott, LLC, and also took on contract work for Solvaire Technologies, LP. Those positions involved short-term engagements that required quick assimilation of client needs and the ability to produce clear contract language on deadline. In 2019 she joined Paragon 28, Inc. as a compliance and contract analyst, an in-house role that exposed her to corporate policies and vendor relationships.
In 2020 Wilson served as a SART Review Lawyer for BNY Mellon. That role added institutional review responsibilities and an opportunity to handle complex internal matters at a large financial institution. The position required precise document review and coordination across business units, and it furthered her comfort working inside regulated environments.
Wilson became an associate at Very Law PLLC in 2021. In that capacity she has advised clients on contract negotiation and transactional issues, and she continues to take on matters that blend compliance analysis with practical drafting. Colleagues describe her work as methodical. She tends to approach problems by breaking them into discrete questions and addressing each with targeted legal analysis.
Her background spans law firm project work, in-house compliance, and institutional review. She draws on that variety when counseling clients, moving between fine print and broader business goals. She practices in Pennsylvania, handling corporate contracts and related compliance matters. Her current practice focuses on corporate contracts, compliance, and commercial matters.
