Law Office Of William E. Leavitt

Bill Leavitt knew exactly—and quickly— how to handle a rent issue with my apartment. We won. I’m grateful and recommend him unqualifiedly. His manner was no-nonsense—just what was called for.

Mr. Leavitt is a lifesaver. He is thorough, knowledgeable, experienced and compassionate. He was indispensable in resolving a landlord-tenant issue and helped my friend and I avoid a legal nightmare / court battle with an unscrupulous and difficult landlord. He listened to and addressed all of my concerns and questions expeditiously. I cannot thank and recommend him enough.

I highly recommend Bill Leavitt! I was illegally evicted, had my belongings removed from my apartment and locked up in the basement by my landlord. I hired Bill, he researched my history in the apartment and already knew the NY tenant laws inside and out. We went to court vs the landlord (represented by his attorney) and the judge gave me my place back immediately. Bill was calm, confident and so prepared that we barely sat down before the judge ruled in our favor. Hire him!

Mr. Leavitt is extremely knowledgable, works incredibly hard, and has a very long history of fighting for tenants' rights (he's even made the news for his successful advocacy). I regularly recommend him to friends and family.

Mr.. Leavitt was always easily available, was knowledgable, replied promptly to emails, and gave us good advice. The fee was affordable, and we're happy that we found him.
