Austin Vandeveer

Wth the help of dishonest people and their willingness to tell great lies in order to help her ex. My daughter's son was taken away from her at 15 months of age in 7/2016. With this being said. We retained a lawyer who was not helping at all. We were going into an abyss with each court date. With no ...hope in sight, I called the Jeffery Levin office and made an appointment, . It was a cloudy, rainy and cold Saturday morning. We were not going to keep this appointment. We went anyway. We walked into the Office of Jeffery Levin, this is it! We had no hope left. We met with 2 attorneys: Austin Vandeveer was one of the attorneys that we spoke with. We explained to him that the lawyer that we retained was not helping and that we tried to fire him and was told by him that we could not. This lawyer put my daughter into a place that we could not foresee. It was horrible! I should add: We only had a few days before meeting this lawyer again in court. Could Austin help us?! Austin listened to what my daugher had to say intently. I could see by the look on his face that he could feel the desperation, pain and heartbreak that we were feeling. Just these words: You don't have to worry anymore, we can help you, made a tremendous difference. We had not heard these words fom the other lawyer. After speaking with Austin for a few hours, my daughter and I felt like a ton of bricks had been lifted off our chests', we could breathe again. My daughter and I both begain to cry..We knew at that moment that we had come to the right law office. Austin cared not only about my daughter's rights as a mother, he also cared about my rights as a grandmother and her son's rights. Even though it was still cloudy, rainy and cold outside, we felt like the sun was shining down on us and things looked a lot brighter. We know that Austin is in this battle with us and we can depend on him to be honest, hardworking and upfront with us, while also showing us that he cares about family. Mr, Levin, Austin is one Sharp Attorney! We:re glad that Austin's on our side! Nina

Excellent Attorney

Austin handled my case very well. He remained very prompt and professional throughout my entire case. I admire his ability to eliminate confusion while solely focusing on producing the results I desired in such a short period of time. I was always informed on the next steps and felt comforted know...ing that he was handling everything just right. I would recommend Austin Vandeveer to anyone seeking stellar representation in the most stressful situations.

I'm very happy with my results in court. Thanks to Austin Vandeveer and the whole Jeffery Leving Firm. After years of dealing with incompetent lawyers I finally found the right firm to represent me and give me the results I deserve.

Dedicated Attorney

Austin is dedicated without fail. He keeps me well informed of my options about to my case. I literally could not be more pleased to have such a solid attorney. He is my voice of reason at times and my advocate when the stress of my case is too much. His level of devotion is unmatched. Great attorney...!
