As a Bankruptcy Lawyer and Business Litigator for over 30 years, I have helped countless businesses and individuals successfully work through and resolve their financial challenges. What may look to you like a disaster, I have handled multiple times. It’s a question of whether your attorney has the right toolbox and knows the right tool to solve your problem. Due to my broad experience, I have all of the necessary tools at my disposal and will share them with you. I represent debtors and creditors in all chapters of the United States Bankruptcy Code, however, I focus on keeping clients out of bankruptcy where possible. My strong suit is settling litigation and creditor claims. I have resolved millions of dollars in debt for clients at enormous savings by avoiding or resolving litigation. I have significant experience resolving businesses in wage and hour and other labor cases. Resolving such claims and saving clients hundreds of thousands of dollars. My primary area of focus is working with small and mid-sized businesses to resolve their debt and other financial issues and help them continue and move forward. I have significant experience in Chapter 11 reorganization and Subchapter V Bankruptcy cases, out-of-court debt restructures, debt settlement, and assignments for the benefit of creditors. I also handle financial problems for individuals. This includes representation in personal bankruptcy cases, out-of-court debt negotiation, and asset protection. As a full-service insolvency attorney, I am also versed in creditors’ rights and represent secured and unsecured creditors in bankruptcy court and the state courts. My experience representing both creditors and debtors makes me an excellent choice as I can anticipate how the other side thinks and what moves they are likely to make. I pride myself when representing creditors in getting them what they are owed. I pride myself when representing debtors in saving the business or the client’s assets and paying as little as possible. I am known as an extremely creative problem solver and an attorney who can handle tough cases on both sides of the line. I earned my Bachelor’s of Arts degree in 1982 from the University of California, Los Angeles. In 1987, I received my Juris Doctor from the University of California, where I served as the Chair of the Hale Moot Court Honors Program.

Hi, I’m Anita, a proud Los Angeles native with deep roots in this city and a deep commitment to the people I serve. While my education and legal background matter (we’ll get to that shortly), what truly defines me as an attorney is how I show up for my clients with heart, dedication, and unwavering support. When you become my client, I treat you like family. That means I keep my promises, fight for you with everything I’ve got, and stand by your side through every step of your case. My approach is rooted in compassion, integrity, and results. I don’t rest until I’ve explored every possible path to protect your rights and achieve the best possible outcome. One thing that sets me apart: I work directly with you. You won’t be handed off to staff or only hear from me every few months. You’ll speak with me personally every time. I take the time to truly understand your story so I can advocate for you as a whole person, not just a case file. For some clients, that even means having my personal cell number for added peace of mind during what can be a stressful and unfamiliar process. If you’re looking for a lawyer who provides detailed, personalized legal representation one who combines legal knowledge, creativity, and compassion I may be the right fit for you. I earned my degree in Communication Studies from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), and went on to receive my J.D. from Southwestern Law School with a focus in Entertainment Law. I spent over 12 years practicing in that field before shifting my focus to personal injury law, where I found deeper fulfillment working closely with individuals who have been harmed or injured. That desire for meaningful connection is what led me to join Levian Law. When I’m not practicing law, you’ll find me spending time with my family or exploring new parts of the world.

I am K. Kevin Levian, Esq., the owner and founder of Levian Law, a reputable employment and injury law firm with multiple offices throughout California. Our firm has been honored with numerous awards and recognitions in the fields of Employment and Personal Injury law. Each year, we handle thousands of cases and have successfully recovered over $75 million for our clients. My journey has been shaped by resilience and dedication. After earning my degree in Political Science from UCLA, I immediately attended Loyola Law School to pursue my legal career. My life took a tragic turn when I was involved in a serious car accident caused by a drunk driver, which resulted in the loss of my younger brother and a prolonged hospital stay. This deeply personal experience fuels my passion to serve those facing equally devastating challenges. I am committed to fighting tirelessly for justice and fairness on behalf of my clients, especially during their most difficult times. Beyond my legal practice, I honor my brother’s memory through the LEV Foundation, a nonprofit organization I founded to promote active, balanced, and responsible lifestyles among youth. With over 23 years of experience advocating for my clients, I am dedicated to making a positive difference in their lives. When I am not working, I enjoy playing basketball and tennis, and spending quality time with my wife and children.
