Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.The real deal! Extremely helpful in my legal process so far. Always available by phone to answer my questions about my case. Knowledgeable and skilled attorney who has been doing this for 35 years and it shows in his professionalism and character. Happy to have him on my team. Thank you Lewis.
Hired him to defend me against an evil landlord. It took nearly five years and tens of thousands in legal fees to Levey, and I still had to pay $61,698 to the plaintiff. Levey would have kept this case going for years, as he charges $500.00 per hour. He will talk to you for five minutes, over anything, and bill you $50.00. Stay away from this guy!!!
