Divorce/child support
Scott was very professional! He always called to keep me up to date on everything. Non judge mental too. Really loved working with him! Never had to wait long for a response, even when I text him at 1am with questions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone going through a divorce or child custody situations. Very happy with the results.

Child Custody Case
I picked Mr. Levine over the other lawyers because he listened to my full story and even took notes when I was telling it. He gave me honest and constructive advise instead of telling me what I want to hear. Because I had Levine, I had the best possible outcome for my case. He was respectful yet aggressive. Mr. Levine picked apart my opponent's statements and proved that all the statements against me were untrue! The case against me was completely dismissed. I was pretty nervous about hiring a lawyer at first, but it was the best move I could've made and I will absolutely hire again if I need to.

Divorce
Scott Levine was inspirational in the most difficult experience I had to face in my life.
He worked diligently and was very detailed at our appointments. Scott really listened and respected what I wanted to have presented at my Peer Review.
My future was at stake and I am so fortunate to have Scott represent me and my case.
The divorce was made final after the P R
Words cannot express my gratitude for everything Scott did for me and my life.

Truly amazing lawyer!!!
Scott took the time to answer all my questions and listen to all my concerns. He made my divorce less stressful by walking me through the entire process. When my ex took my back to court for full custody less than a year after the divorce I hired Scott again, and he laid a verbal smack down that has no rival!!!! my ex's case was thrown out of court and I ended up with full custody. 10/10 would recommend.

Mr. Scott J Levine is a knowledgeable and skillful attorney. He is an effective litigator as well as a strong negotiator. Mr. Levine has represented me in court many times. He consistently presents carefully planned and well executed arguments that produce favorable results. When communicating with my ex-spouse´s attorney outside of court he has also been able to secure successful outcomes.
For many years I have had to deal with a contentious situation with my ex-spouse. Fortunately, whether I have had to go to court or I have had matters mediated, I have peace of mind knowing that I have outstanding legal representation.

Hardworking and Knowledgeable
I had a pretty simple, uncontested divorce and Scott quickly got me through the process. It would have been even quicker if not for the COVID outbreak that shut down the courts for a little while. He was very responsive and always got back to me immediately, if I had to leave him a message. I really appreciated that! Even though my divorce was quick and easy, I could tell Scott is very knowledgeable in family law and I will use his services again in the future, if the need arises.

I had a strange case that seemed like it was drawn out forever. Scott was there through the whole process and he really helped me keep sane through it all. He helped me win my case and without him I know things may have gone the other way. Will continue to use him in these next 18 years!

Honest and Professional
I came to Mr Levine without referral, only researching on the web. Mr Levine’s website is easy and informative. Once I met him in the free consultation I was quickly at ease. I was plus 20 years married, son in college and significant assets- scared of the unknown going into the divorce process. Scott was informative and direct about how we would proceed. He wasted no time and always kept me up on what he was doing and how things were going during multiple counters and delays. I came out on top and have Scott to thank for that, if I ever need a lawyer again he will be my first call no matter the circumstances. He will fight for you...

Gets Amazing Results
I could go on for days about the amount of gratitude I have for Scott Levine. In the most difficult time of my life, Scott took care of me in all aspects. Not only was he professional and extremely knowledgeable, he was also a “real” person and a family man. He completely understood my individual situation. As an attorney, Scott offered me intelligent legal guidance while providing me information from the perspective of a great dad. He also explained things to me in a way that I could understand, and he had excellent people skills. Scott worked nights and weekends and he accommodated me because of my busy work schedule. At the conclusion of my case and still to this day, I am extremely satisfied with Scott Levine. It is clear to me that the good quality of my new life is a direct result of his diligence.

Scott skillfully negotiated through mediation and pre trial deposition to arrive at a better solution than initially proposed for divorce and custody.

Very Good Attorney
Mr. Levine is an extremely dilligent and hardworking attorney. His ability as a professional and the level of attention he has given to the details of my case have proven over and over to be characteristics that I can rely upon. His deep knowledge and extensive experience combined with proficiency in providing guidance left me with confidence and security in times that would have otherwise seemed perilous. While nothing is certain in court cases Mr. Levine maximized the potential for positive results for my family and I by being both thorough and relentlessly dedicated as well honest and trustworthy. He was professional in regard to the nature of my situation as well as to the outcome of my case (outcome ended up being successful). He is very reliable and efficient in terms of communication and coorespondance. He is easy to work with and has a down to earth personality as well as a unqiue skill of maintaining balance while providing positive perspectives when they are needed the most. When I arrived in court I realized how serious my situation had became. Mr. Levine was absoultey outstanding in his court room ability. Court is stressful but he is always prepared. He puts forth his best effort and his best effort is very very good. As someone who has “been through it”, I would strongly recommend contacting the Law Office of Mr. Levine. I would strongly recommend that you put your search on hold and call his office immediately.

Dedicated, fair, effective counsel
Scott took the time to understand my case. During pre-trial meetings with me, he gave me a realistic sense of what I could expect and feedback on the elements of my case that had most and least relative merit. Rather than telling me what I wanted to hear, he told me what I needed to hear. Before and during trial, he effectively prepared my case and argued it in court. At the end of the day, my case was as strong as he initially informed me. The primary decision was exactly what I was seeking.

Best family court attorney in New Jersey
Scott has been my family law attorney for 2 going on 3 years now. Scott not only fights hard for his clients but Scott is extremely well versed in the law, well spoken in court and delivers results. Scott is the best attorney around and is great to work with. He has outstanding character which is hard to find in an attorney and actually cares about his clients. He has great communication with clients and has always been available when i call to consult or need him immediately. Wish I could give more then 5 stars.

I had a very complex custody case in which numerous lawyers wouldn't even take my case as they all deemed it "unwinable." Scott Levine was willing to take my case on and I could not be happier with the outcome. My case involved many years and countless pages of previous court orders in which he reviewed each and every one in detail and pulled out necessary details to help build a stronger case for custody. Mr Levine always made himself available and gave great counsel not only during our regular meetings but also in times of tense and anxiety ridden interactions with the other party. His professionalism in the court room was exemplary and never once did he give any false pretense of what the outcome would or could be. He always thought our responses to the other party through and took great care in explaining each and every piece of everything that was occurring and going on. I could not be happier with the outcome achieved through his hard work and determination to take an underdog case and give it his best effort.

A cut above the rest
I stumbled upon Scott Levine just searching through Google. I called for a consultation, and two days later i was in his office discussing my family court case I wanted to pursue. Mr. Levine was very thorough and honest with his answers to my questions and suggestions on how to proceed. It was long road, but Mr. Levine constantly communicated with me about every detail that occurred every time he worked on my case. Mr. Levine guided me and always kept me on the positive road. Mr. Levine being a family man himself understood my concerns. I was never left in the dark, nor uninformed about anything in regards to my case. I couldn't have asked for a more, caring, thoughtful, dedicated, and hard working lawyer for representation. In his own words "We are going full boar" and that is what he did. In closing, Mr. Levine was successful in my family court case that we pursued and I am currently the happiest I have been in my entire life. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!!!

Mr. Scott Levine has been my attorney for over 3 years. He has guided me through a very long and difficult case involving first my divorce, then visitation and parental rights. Mr. Levine is available day and night and on weekends. His paralegal, Kim Oakley, is also available and highly trained to answer any questions that I have. Mr. Levine has also guided me over the phone through several emergency situations where the safety of my children was compromised.
When my case went to trial, he prepared me to give a deposition and to address the judge in the courtroom. Because of his efforts I felt very confident going into each situation. Throughout this tedious process I have felt taken care of on a professional and personal level. Every aspect of my case was thoroughly and meticulously researched and argued. The outcome of each court date has been in my favor. I credit him with keeping my children safe. Mr. Levine cares about my family as more than an attorney. I have recommended him to several friends who were also very happy with his services. I will be sticking with Mr. Levine for any issues that arise in the future.
