Howard Bruce Leff

Howard was not only my lawyer but he was like my big brother protecting me in my case. My case was drawn out for almost four years and Howard was there to guide me through the whole process. Even though my case was finished over a year ago, I still speak to him regarding issues that arise. He always ...had my back during difficult times. He cares about his clients as well as their kids. He knows the laws inside out and is extremely knowledgeable In The intricacies of the law. One time when we went in front of the judge to discuss an issue, the judge was going to agree with the other side and Howard told the judge what the law was, citing the law and examples of it. The judge told us that she doesn’t have to look the law up because she said, “I know that Howard knows the law cold and I don’t have to look into it.” and we won the argument. I was amazed with what the judge said and he is known to articulate complex law matters into simple layman terms. He has respect from the judges as well as the other attorneys. My ex took me to Beth Din( Jewish Court) when she realized she wouldn’t win in regular court. I asked Howard to represent me because I knew he would do an amazing job. The Beth Din that she took me too is known to favor the woman so I knew it was going to be a long day. My wife hired a special lawyer whose specialty is dealing with Jewish Court. She had won many cases over the years and actually worked with the judges. Yes, you read that right. She knew the Three judges in the case and had worked for one of them. Howard presented the case in front of the 3 Judges who were experts in Jewish law. He presented the case articulately and with vigor striking down anything the other party said. The Judges were very impressed with him. It took over six hours to discuss the case with the judges. A couple of weeks later I got an email confirming that we had won the case. Howard is not only a great lawyer, he is also a great person. Don’t bother to use anyone else!

I hired Mr Leff as my attorney to guide me during my divorce. He was thorough, professional, straight forward and COMPASSIONATE. He listened to my concerns and questions. He responded in a timely fashion whenever I contacted him Including after hours and on the weekend. Howard is the Ultimate Prof...essional!!

Just save yourself the trouble of looking any further and hire Howard. He is a caring, compassionate realist who won't waste your time. His staff is wonderful to work with and their work is timely and professional. My husband and I hired Howard after a nasty custody battle for the follow up child su...pport issue. We live in Virginia and had hired a different attorney to represent us in the custody piece, which was a huge mistake. At first Howard hesitated to take our case until digging into the law a bit, and then he was on a mission. His gusto was refreshing, as other Long Island lawyers were unwilling to take our fight, that New York could not modify an out-of-state child support order. Long story short, Howard dug his heels in and we won the case, and he did it with a style that made every other New York attorney we worked with over the preceding three years look like garbage. Howard always made himself available to us, and he is a fighter. I cannot recommend this man enough. I know if Howard had been our lawyer for our custody case, we would have custody of my step-daughter.

I used Howard for my divorce a couple years ago and I can say that he is a very dedicated attorney that truly cares. My case was anything but easy, and I could tell he would get just as emotional as I did when we hit roadblocks or obstacles. He really cares. In fact, my case was in final negotiati...ons while Howard was on vacation with his family, and he must have destroyed his entire vacation spending it on the phone with me from his family's retreat. Howard was relentless in ushering this to the finish and I cant thank him enough.

I came to meet Howard in 2016..i was recomended to him by a friend in the gym..My now ex wife and iI had just begun divorce preceedings when she decided to use my children against me and alienate me from them.One of my children is autistic and Howard couldnt have performed better..He represented me f...rom family court all the way through my final divorce.he fought for my sons and I fearlessly..He is also a very prepared trial lawyer who excells in this capacity..I highly recomend him for any legal matter especially when children are involved..
