An electrical stimulation lead includes a paddle body with micro-circuit assemblies having micro-circuits laminated between electrically-nonconductive substrates. The micro-circuits have first end portions and opposing second end portions. Electrodes are electrically coupled to the first end portions of the micro-circuits. Distal end portions of one or more lead bodies are coupled to the paddle body. Terminals are disposed along proximal end portions of the one or more lead bodies. Lead-body conductors are coupled to the terminals and extend along the one or more lead bodies to distal end portions of the one or more lead bodies. The lead-body conductors are attached to the second end portions of the micro-circuits to electrically couple the terminals to the electrodes.
