“Good Experiences; Fast Resolutions! I needed some advice on new employee labor laws concerning overtime pay. Scott was responsive and efficient in helping me. I also appreciated that he took time to really understand my set up (which is a bit unconventional) to ensure the bases were covered. You'll never get anything less than a great experience with this attorney. Definitely positive!”

I have worked with Scott Levitt of Levitt Law for years. I am pleased to report my phone calls have nearly always been answered directly upon my calling. Rarely is there a need to leave a message but when necessary the call is returned promptly. Scott is well informed and advises courses of action that best suit us as his customer. At times his advice eliminates the need for legal representation. Levitt law is reliable at meeting deadlines and commitments. Scott is trustworthy and maintains his customers’ needs as a high priority. It is great to have representation such as Levitt law that you can count on.

Property Tax Reassessment

Scott Levitt assisted me with an appeal of the reassessment of my property taxes in Los Angeles County following deaths in my family. I found him to be very responsive and he explained things in terms that I was able to understand. He was successful in lowering the amount of the reassessment; in fact, following my appeal hearing, the individual who represented the County followed me outside and told me "your lawyer is good"! I would definitely recommend Mr. Levitt!

I appreciate Scott very much for fighting for me. He is solid! We had on of those home remodel contractor disputes. Scott is an outstanding lawyer. He was on top of everything and effective. The legal system is what it is. It sucks! You never want to be in the process. But sometimes you have no choice. Thank you Scott very much. I appreciate Scott and will highly recommend your services to anyone in need.

I've known Scott through his involvement in the community. When the need arose for some legal aid, several people recommend him and his services.

This is what I always expected in a lawyer...

Small town lawyer, big city gravitas. Scott has helped our company with projects ranging from company HR, to real estate, to aviation. He has an ability to connect with his clients by cutting through the clutter, and making the complex easy to understand. He bills fairly, and always stays on point. All of this, while responding to calls and emails with urgency. We feel very fortunate to have Scott representing us.
