Steven Lever did his undergraduate work at the University of California, Santa Barbara, graduating in 1988, and graduated from McGeorge School of Law in 1991. Mr. Lever has practiced bankruptcy law almost exclusively since graduating law school, first working for a law firm that has a bankruptcy trustee on staff, and then became a partner at a bankruptcy boutique law firm, Clarkson, Lever and Gore.
In March of1995 he went out on his own and has practiced law in his own firm since that time.
Realizing that bankruptcy was often the result of a lack of financial planning, Mr. Lever studied financial planning at the University of California, Irvine, and completed the program in Personal Financial Planning in 2003. This broader base of financial knowledge gives his clients an edge in gaining maximal results from their fresh start.
Mr. Lever is an active member of the following professional organizations: The National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys; The Central District Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys' Association and The Orange County Bankruptcy Forum. He frequently and regularly attends meetings and educational programs of these organizations and uses their various other resources.
In his spare time, Mr. Lever spends time working in his garden and helps his wife raise their young daughter & son, and he gets out to play tennis when he can get the chance.

Very good bankruptcy lawyer. Made me feel comfortable on first visit. Walks you through everything. Spends alot of time with clients. His support staff is very knowledgable and keep you updated as you go. I recommend Steve Lever for any of your bankruptcy needs.

His office is skilled at utilizing available technology, which makes things easier for all parties involved. On top of this, Steve is a great person and more than worthy of my endorsement."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have referred several clients with debt problems to Mr. Lever. He has handled those matters very competently and my clients have had excellent results with his assistance."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Steve for several years and his knowledge on contested and uncontested bankruptcy matters is unrivaled. He is ALWAYS on a short list of bankruptcy lawyers that I refer matters to. If needed, I would hire him for myself"
"Attorney Lever is a colleague and active member of the Central District Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney Association who provides support to our newer members. He wants the best for his prospective clients and works with other attorneys to provide the best outcome for consumers in need. He is truly a consumer protection attorney and I recommend this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Steve for a number of years. He's a very well informed and very well organized attorney in the bankruptcy court. I've recommended him to others and will continue to do so."

Steve was our bankruptcy counsel in this maritime foreclosure case and he was a valuable asset to the team as we worked for relief from stay to prevent the yacht from escaping to Mexico."
