The worst !

don’t trust all the other reviews. save your time and money by going to another attorney. Stacy Levy was very unprofessional and became hard to get in contact / a response from her. be careful & don’t learn the hard way by hiring her..

My New Best Friend

What can I say about Ms. Stacy.......Hmmmm........This woman is Magnificent!!!!!! She is really one of the most hard working people I know. She helped me with my case tremendously by getting my charges dropped from a felony to a misdemeanor, while working other cases, and also had a big part in men...ding a relationship that was broken in the midst of me receiving the charges that I initially had. I Love her spunk and determination in making her clients more than satisfied with the services that she provides. I will forever be grateful and appreciative for what she has done for me. If I ever will need a lawyer again for anything, She is definitely someone I will speak with or recommend for someone in need of her services, skills and talents. Thank You so much for making my life a whole lot better. I wish there was an option to give 100 stars. Muahhhhh!!!!!
