Best lawyer in Las Vegas

I hired Mr. Leavitt for a custody dispute. He was very attentive, caring and extremely punctual. He will give his honest opinions on what needs to be done for the case and how each proceeding will go. Mr. Leavitt looks at every angle and aspect of his client’s cases. He helped me win my court case an...d get the most out of it. Mr. Leavitt is extremely knowledgeable in the court room and in the Nevada law. I would 100 % recommend him for any case. Going into mr. Leavitt office you will notice that he has the most rewards for top lawyer In Nevada.

Amazing representation

Ben did great on our custody case. It was obvious he cared about getting the best results for all parties, and was excellent at negotiation and in court.

Ben Leavitt - Attorney Review

Ben Leavitt has been my divorce attorney for on-going divorce challenges for roughly 2 years. In my time working with Ben, I’ve been incredibly impressed with his service and the full team at Leavitt Law Firm. When you’re dealing with the most important parts of your life including children, finances... and emotional stress, having a strong team-member to manage the journey is critical, at minimum, and Ben has been that without fail. A few reasons that come to mind: Guidance – The team at Leavitt Law Firm have 30+ years of experience and collaborate team who partner together. Their insight allows them to quickly analyze individual situations, propose multiple options, and suggest recommendations based on client goals, Nevada law, and history of similar situations. The information allows for effective collaborating on the best course of action and quick decisions. Urgency – I’ve personally had multiple urgent needs regarding custody disputes, interpretation of Nevada law and finances. These are some of the most important things in my world, and having an attorney who responds / acts quickly has been beyond helpful. Financial – A two-part response: The team from the beginning proposed best case scenarios for my financial situation and recommended how to work with my former spouse in a way to maximize both of our well-being. I’ve appreciated that it’s clear Ben is looking out for my best financial interest and is one reason he has consistent cliental 2. Ben charges a more than fair rate for his service and honestly could charge more. He is transparent with billing and has taken very good care of me in this regard. Ethics – I have zero doubt Ben and team are operating in my best interest in every way. This is in negotiations with other attorneys, client billing, recommendations, etc. Having the peace of mind knowing you’re working with a great attorney is invaluable. Ben and team worked tirelessly to fight for what was most important to me, securing the time and relationship with my 6-year-old son. I can’t image a life without him, and the days I may have missed if my divorce wasn’t managed appropriately. I highly recommend this group if you’re in the challenging situation of divorce or nearing this point in your life. It’s tough to go through, but if you’re in this position, there’s nothing more important than managing it appropriately and Ben will ensure it’s taken care of.

The BEST ever

Let me preface this with the fact that I’ve NEVER had somebody fight for ME the way he did. Every word, every tear, every FEAR, everything that had me panicking he listened to. Despite how much I rambled, despite how much I cried, despite barely being able to get through my sentences, he NEVER skippe...d a beat. He LISTENED first and foremost, he CARED, and THEN have he empathized with me and calmed me as he thoroughly explained everything to me in a way I could understand despite the emotional turmoil I was feeling. He broke everything down so perfectly that it brought so much comfort to know that I was NOT fighting this alone and that he was there for me EVERY step of the way no matter how big or how small those steps were. He eased into everything with such fluidity and grace never losing track of what we needed to do even though I was basically a plate of spaghetti that felt like I couldn’t find the end. He moved mountains for me, which made my path so much easier to focus on when very little was put on my plate because Lord knows that anything else resting on my shoulders probably would have made me collapse. He is so genuine and understanding that nothing about my reaction turned him off, if anything he dove in harder to make things work for me. There are not enough words, prayers, NOTHING that could ever truly express the gratitude or the respect that I have for him. I will be living my life thanking him everyday for everything he has done and accomplished for me.

Gave Me Confidence And Fought For Me During The Hardest Time of My Life

I contacted Leavitt law firm in the midst of a custody/divorce case and I cannot explain how incredible Benjamin was from the consultation. He didn’t sugar coat anything and was always straight forward but never made me feel as if my question were stupid. He gave solid advice but when I felt I wanted... something different he worked to get me what I wanted. He was always quick to respond, which gave me great comfort. More importantly he was able to not only smoothly pick up where my previous lawyers were but answer questions I’d been asking for months, fix issues I had with other agreements, and was able to get me more than my previous lawyers even said was possible. Benjamin was able to work with me during a trying time in my life when my money was heavily tied up in the divorce. I couldn’t be more grateful for his and Stephanie’s hard work, patience, and guidance during the hardest time of my life. Benjamin Leavitt is passionate, professional, and respectful and if you’re in need of anyone to assist you for Family, Divorce, or Custody look no further than Benjamin and his team at Leavitt Law Firm.
