The Best

I was in one hot mess because of another lawyer's malpractice. Mr. Leibenstern to my rescue. He was able to reverse some things they did wrong. Thank God for Mr. Leibenstern.

The truth

After Mr. Leibenstern reopened his office at 12am for me he took my case... Within 24 the bail was reduced from $7500 to $2500. No jail time... Sheldon definitely cares, he sat n listened and understood my situation and immediately explained what can be done and took care of it. Thanks to Sheldon lei...benstern justice was served

Excelllent Attorney!

Mr. Leibenstern answered all my questions and made me feel at ease IMMEDIATELY!. I was so concerned about my future and what a criminal record could do to my future. Even though the case didn't go past the precinct he escorted me their and followed up with me on a regular basis for MONTHS after the ...case was over. If I ever found myself or family in legal trouble he would be the first person I would contact.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
