Posted by Lawrence | February 23, 2012 | Identity Theft

One damn good appeals attorney!

My attorney Robert Levi, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable when he first reviewed and agreed to take my traffic/criminal appeals case a few years back. In addition, I was also the severe victim of identity theft so the attorney really had to research the case to see what options were available ...to me, since my original case had been decided many years back. After a few months of exhaustive research and investigation on the part of my attorney, he relentlessly worked on a defense for my case and shared all of the discovery and information with me. Even though the attorney was also busy with other cases and it seemed like it took a long time to receive my day- in- court, eventually I did. I was not sure what the outcome of my case was going to be, but even with the multitude of issues in my case, Mr. Levi effectively argued all ethical and applicable rules and laws in court, as well as a couple of unique strategies, and in the end the judge did decide in my favor which allowed me to move on with my life and receive justice and relief after many years of hardship. I would definitely recommend Attorney Robert Levi and I personally would love to work with him if ever possible, once I complete paralegal and or law school.
