Great lawyer!! Amazing staff!!
My case was difficult from the start and my ex-husband refused to make any concessions. Troy worked hard to get me a settlement agreement in the middle of trial that I was very happy with.

Troy Leavitt-Best Lawyer in Missouri
One versital attorney... Personable and friendly to clients... But, a rockstar warrior in the arena! I was recommended, by an attorney, who said, he's the only person she'd use. You know he's awesome, when, other lawyers consider him a top pick! I'm a returning client and have recommended him to many friends. All who have were very pleased with their results and now recommend him to others. Opposing party will either, grimace or shutter, when you walk through the door with Mr. Leavitt.

Divorce
Last year my world was shattered when my husband left me. I was a stay at home mom and was terrified what would happen. I had no knowledge of the law or what my options were. Because of Troy my children and I were able to stay in our family home with a roof over our heads despite my husbands persistent attempts to throw my children and I into the streets with nothing. Troy was also very kind to me and my children, not like most rude and cold attorneys. Without his help I would have lost everything including my children. He got me everything I asked for in my divorce. I got a fresh start because of Mr. Leavitt. He's an amazing Attorney !

Will never go anywhere else!
Troy kept my record clean. I had been pulled over by the police. I was charged with a traffic violation and a drug possession. I walked away with no points on my driver's record and a dismissal on the drug charge!
Thank you Troy!

Troy helped me get my son back.
Troy is a phenomenal lawyer, my case was a child custody case and he went above and beyond to help me get my little boy back. We spent 9 long months battling the paternal side where we dealt with many sideline issues along the way, he kept his cool, he genuinely cared about me getting my son back and he made it happen all the way. I most definitely would use him again for any further court proceedings in the area as well as recommend him to anyone in times of need. He is outstanding !

Troy knows the law!
Troy was able to win my ex parte hearing against my ex-husband and right after the hearing he met me at the police department and helped me file a police report to have charges filed against my ex for violating the order. Troy went above and beyond for me. I would recommend Troy to anyone.

Troy Leavitt review
Troy takes care of my traffic tickets for me and my family. I have unfortunately had problems with speeding and traffic violations in the past. I have worked with many lawyers in the past, and he is by far the most reasonably priced and efficient attorney I have used. I wish I wouldn't have ever worked with any other attorney. He has been so great. I can't even stress how much I appreciate his services. Thanks Troy!!!

The Best. Did a great job for me.
I had a drug possession charge and Mr. Leavitt was able to have my charge reduced to a littering charge. Troy always kept me updated and his staff is helpful and easy to talk to.
Posted by Mark | September 4, 2014
Would recommend to anyone. Troy helped me through a really rough time.
I was facing my first ever criminal charge. Troy took the time to explain the process to me and tried to calm me as much as possible. Being a domestic violence charge a conviction would have cost me my job. Troy was able to get the charge dismissed. Thank you Troy.

Wonderful attorney that worked hard for me
Troy saved me from doing a lot of jail time. The prosecutor wanted 7 years and was not budging. Troy worked hard for me and finally before trial he was able to get me a 3 year probation without. I have been in trouble several times before and Troy took the time to talk to me and made me feel as comfortable as I could under the circumstances.
