AN HONEST, HARDWORKING, EXPERIENCED ATTORNEY! A+

David Lavi has represented me and advised me on multiple matters in the past two years and thus far has proven to be brilliant on each case! I know that I can count on his ability to think outside of the box coupled with his extensive trial experience in a myriad of legal matters. He has successfully... represented my close friends in a Personal Injury claim after a car accident. He has also represented another friend successfully in a child custody case. This guy is the real deal. HIGHLY RECOMMEND DAVID LAVI!!!! Thank you for everything!

Posted by Christian | October 15, 2012 | Child Support

Excellent service all around. Highly recommended. Worth the cost

My child support case was turning into a nightmare and I needed help, fast! I learned that i need to act quickly when dealing with the courts because the system moves quickly to judgement and do what they need to do to get a there. Things took a positive turn when I got in touch with the Lavi Firm..., his rates, and all he does for his clients. WoW! Give them a call. And Never mind that they're in Beverly Hills, they wont gouge you. ( I certainly don't feel gouged). And I feel like I got the same service or better as the $450/hr attorney, very likely better, since I got one of the principals working on my case as opposed to an associate that I would likely get at the $450/hr firm. (No disrespect to any associate anywhere). I truly feel like I have never made a better decision than paying this attorney to handle my case. And he worked with me and my situation so don't be afraid to call. Attorney David Lavi was completely professional and I immediately sensed the difference and felt hope for the first time when I spoke with him. I met with him and what I saw and heard only confirmed everything that I felt from the initial contact. I felt that he was the right choice. i had learned to always trust my instinct as it is my 5 senses rolled into one and therefore very powerful. It paid off. Like me, Mr. Lavi believes that “the moment you start having problems with your attorney is the moment you need another attorney.” My entire experience with Mr. Lavi and his Staff was extremely pleasant; and I dare not forget to say extremely Rewarding, considering the alternative!!! He made such a big difference in my case that I felt the need to write about it and tell my story regardless of the time it takes to write. My hope is to help people like myself who look to reviews for guidance (from other peoples actual experiences) before they make important decisions like hiring an attorney. I take time to do reviews also because reviews allow me to do my little part to change the world according to the teachings of Ghandi. “Reviews allow me to “Be the change you want to see in this world”-Ghandi, by allowing me to tell others about my experience so there it is. Don't forget to write a review about how you feel about the service you get and we will change the world together, one at a time, making it a better place. Here I will save you the pain and the nasty and unprofessional comments I endured dealing with another attorney before I got in touch with Mr.David Lavi. But rest assured I will write about that nasty experience separately in another review where it belongs. . in closing, I am very much aware that I gave this attorney all Excellent ratings on each point above, which i purposely tried to avoid. But that was my experience and it is what it is. Hopefully someone else will feel the same or just tell it like it is whatever they experience to help others learn either way.

"Mr. Lavi is sharp witted, intelligent and highly capable adversary. I found that rather than adopt scorched earth tactics, he attempted to find very practical ways of informal resolution. When all was said and done, I ended up having more respect for Mr. Lavi than my own client. I cannot recommend him highly enough."
