Andrew Blair Leventhal

We awoke early one morning to find that our teenage son had been arrested and charged with a serious crime involving an automobile accident. Andrew Leventhal was recommended to us by a friend of ours who is a trust attorney, and he came to our assistance that very morning with advice and instructions on how to best navigate the immediate circumstances. We literally had no idea on how to proceed. As well as giving us instructions and advice on how to proceed, and of great value to us, Andrew immediately established a sincere, personal connection with our son, giving him hope and solace about his future. Knowing that an event such as this can be a life altering detriment to a young person, he guided our son on a journey to restore his hope and self-confidence about his place in the world, and advised him on the practical steps he could take to atone for this error in judgement. He helped our son find a way towards the maturity of thought, action, and concern for others that most teenagers develop only later in life, and as a consequence, our son has matured into a responsible adult very quickly. As the case was complicated, the proceedings were postponed several times over the course of an entire year, and Andrew stayed with us, delivering the advice and information we needed in order to make the right decisions as the case developed. Our son was facing significant time in custody, and we were terribly worried. Our confidence was bolstered when at each of the five hearings we attended, attorneys that happen to be walking by would stop to shake Andrew’s hand, tell us that we were lucky to have Andrew representing our son, and to say “You have a great lawyer.” We think they are right. Andrew is highly respected within the legal community, and that pays dividends in the courtroom. Andrew’s solid knowledge of the law, and the everchanging developments that others in the courtroom seemed to lose track of, led us thankfully to a resolution that did not involve any time in custody. We were stunned by the sudden reduction of the charge and the settlement of the sentence, and by the incredible relief in suddenly knowing that we would not have to continue fighting it out in court for an indeterminant number of months or even years. Our son will be on probation, and must complete some programs and community service, but he will thankfully be able to remain in college, and he will be able to proceed with his life as an excellent young man. In the near future, with Andrew’s help and our son’s mature behavior, we hope to have the charge further reduced, and eventually expunged from his record. We are truly thankful for Andrews help and expertise, and our son is looking forward to a steady, compassionate future. Lastly, we want to call out Jasmine Leventhal, who is the Director of Operations, and Andrew’s wife. Jasmine was instrumental in the handling of communications from all of the many parties involved, and well as the hundreds of documents. She and Andrew have a growing family, and we developed a real, personal connection to them as fellow parents who understand the joys and difficulties of raising children. We think this sense of family was an important element in helping us through this difficult time, and we highly recommend them to anyone facing legal difficulties.

Andrew and his team were fantastic during my son's court case. It was hard for the family after my son got into so much trouble and was put in jail. The Leventhal Firm was very diligent in fighting for my son's life. Andrew went in full force with the DA and was able to get one of the most severe offenses dismissed. I will be forever grateful for the representation of this firm. I would highly recommend the Leventhal Firm and trust them with my most precious assets. Thank You from the bottom of my heart! A Happy Mom
