Free from the Never Ending Marriage!

For starters, I would not finally be divorced without this wonderful lawyer and his team! I was in a very difficult situation, being that I was active duty military and had moved across the country on orders, and my estranged husband just decided to never respond to a single court document or me. I h...ad a case that not many lawyers would take on but Jon was resilient and ensured to get it done. He worked with me over email and phone for over 3 years to get my divorce finalized. Without his encouragement I honestly would've just given up. He never gave up with the courts or on me. He stayed positive and prepared me for various possible challenges and roadblocks. Even with the stress of this case for both he and I, we didn't give up! He got me my divorce and I have never been so happy and sure in the chose I made for my legal team. He really was great and stuck by me the entire time, even when it seemed like a downhill battle. Thank you so much Jon and the Levin legal team. I literally couldn't have done it without you!

Too Notch Matrimonial Attorney

Aside from divorcing by husband, the best decision I made was to hire Jonathan Levin to represent me. Jonathan was honest, thorough and fought for me. I can’t thank Jonathan enough for his dedication to my case and returned money to me that wasn’t used for my retainer. His intimate knowledge of the ...law saved me a tremendous amount of money.

Civil Expert

I hired Jon during a stressful period in my life where I was falsely accused and my personal and professional life hung in the balance. Thank god I was referred to Jon, as his knowledge, guidance, and professionalism helped push me through to the most positive outcome possible. Some moments that stoo...d out during the grueling 6 week ordeal: 1. Jon is sharp: when I mentioned a piece of exonerating evidence Jon was previously unaware of, he named the civil code and subsection off the top of his head that would allow the evidence to be permissible in court 2. Jon is conscientious of his client's time/mood/costs: Jon kept necessary phone calls brief and succinct, mitigating hourly attorney fees, while also walking me through likely next steps and displaying exemplary bedside manner 3. Jon is experienced and well-established: Let's face it, when hiring an attorney, you're paying for his connections/experience just as much as his services. Jon has over 20 years experience in family/civil law, and as such, he knew the ins/outs, judges, and pressure points to push at just the right time to advocate for the best outcome possible. I hope I never have to solicit legal advice again, but if I do, Jon Levin will have my business.

Excellence In Copyright

There's not much more I can say about Jonathan Levin except that he is an excellent attorney. I was recently threatened with a lawsuit that was erroneous and felt like a scam. Mr. Levin stepped in and did his best legal work to make this situation go away. In the end, you only hire a lawyer to gain a... result, and Mr. Levin delivered. He's an outstanding lawyer, as well as being pleasant and easy to deal with. He explains things in a way that a non-legal mind can grasp so you don't feel like you are giving your retainer money without any understanding on where it's going. I would recommend Mr. Levin to anyone.

Top notch lawyer. Highly recommend

I have used Mr. Levin to handle my legal matters on many occasions. I can't say enough about him. He has always conducted himself in a professional manner. His vast knowledge of the law, attention to details, work ethic and people skills is very impressive. He has the unique ability to see things on ...a "3 dimensional" level. Mr. Levin has always given me an honest and accurate assessment and I couldn't be more pleased with the results.
