This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Top Notch

I have retained Scott's representation for contract negotiations and legal services. He is professional and thorough when it comes to the details involved. I highly recommend his services.

Top Notch Lawyer you can Count on

“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!”

Reliable representation

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 th...at 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 fa...ct, 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!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
