Todd Matthew Leventhal

It was crazy how we met. Todd was an appointed attorney on my son's case and before I got to meet him in person. I had a client of his come into my non-profit organization to do court ordered community service. The client asked if I could fax over my information to his lawyer to show where he would ...be doing his community service hours at and duties. When I asked for his attorney information, the client said Todd Leventhal and I said WOW we was just appointed him as counsel for my son however we haven't met yet. What a small world. Needless to say, we finally met Mr Leventhal in person and he was very professional, told us straight up about my son's case and advised us on what way he was going to represent him and what we should expect. Todd didn't sugar code anything, he was straight forward and delivered on what he said he was going to do. Todd arranged a plea deal that made it possible for my son to be able to come home and be with his family. My son was facing 27 years to life and Todd had him out in less than 5 years. My son is now working and finishing his classes to earn a certificate in welding. If you are looking for an attorney that is a realist and keeps it real. I would suggest you contact this man because he really goes to bat for his clients. We sent plenty of referrals his way and everyone was happen with the outcome.

I had been introduced to Todd Leventhal by someone who he had represented in the past. Consultation went ok, a retainer fee was understood at $10,000. Todd said for the time being he was not going to sign on for the simple reasoning i had just been appointed a state appointed attorney and to allow hi...m to do alot of the paper chasing things and steps that the courts must go through to get to trial. Todd said when the time is right he will sign on and take it from there. For the time being i was to round up $ whether it be payments or full payment of $10k for retainer. I made in total payments to Todd Leventhal $7100. I recieved a bench warrant on this case at a point and was picked up and put in jail. At no point while in jail did Todd come talk to me or even answer my families calls as to what was going on. I realize i never made my payments to Todds retainer amount. I was forced to have to proceed on with a court appointed attorney that at the time i did not want representing me. A week away from trial i signed to a guilty plea, releasing me from jail. I then went to Todds office inquiring about getting my $ back. He agreed there would be a refund coming just that a few things needed to happen first. His office workers needed to look up how much i had paid and he needed for a couple other cases to get paid out before he would have my refund for me. Then covid hit, and the next time i spoke with Todd, months later, he began calling me names and telling me how i was bugging his office too much and to basically back off he will let me know when my refund is ready. Along the way before my sentencing he made threats to go to my sentencing judge and tell him all about me. He even called me up and said,"Have u seen wat i did recently? I got my MS13 guy off on murder charges." I took that as a direct threat. He then told me if he wanted to he could say that with all the time in he had on my case he could claim that there was no $ left for a refund. Todd did 1 thing for my case, he git me a continuance so i could get my finances in order. THATS IT! No investigation into my discover nothing! He has been all of rude, name calling, false accusations as to what was said. It boils down to this, he has yet to refund me ANY $. My case has been settled over 9 months ago. I am to speak with him 1 more time this week but as he has now told me again there is no $ left for a refund. He never signed on and left me high and dry in jail with no heads up as to what to do. Todd Leventhal has the upmost worthless integrity of any attorney i have ever seen. I give this as a testimonial to my involvement with Todd Leventhal. I would not recommend to hire him or consult with him. He numerous times asked me to find him hookers to meet up with him but had no intention of paying. His business is only out for his benefit only.
