Don’t hire a pregnant lawyer. I am a mother and I thought her maternal status would mean her understanding. What is actually did was she rushed through my case at the end because it was taking longer than she expected it would and was going to, and might interfere with her taking off for maternity leave as she was planning -instead of having another lawyer at her firm finish the job in a professional mannor. I got screwed over since I was self employed, she didn’t fight for the court to allow me to use my tax deductions (necessary costs of licensing and expenses to run a contacting business) these are allowed/deductables on my tax returns, and so the other attourney not wanting them allowed they increased my income by 40% so as much as the fathers who has no overhead expenses because he is an employee. So she didn’t press for it, the court added back necessary expenses and as a result I was granted only $180. Child support for my 2 young kids. This barely pays for a cell phone, a pair of shoes or any afterschool class for two kids.
I referred a friend before my case was finished unfortunately-before knowing how awful a lawyer Erin is... My friends case was won because ge was abusive to their child. Father was ordered by court to pay the lawyers fees. Well my friend had already paid them because it’s required to be pais as you go along. So Levine Law Firm told her their policy is they don’t just give her back her money until After they collect it from the other party! He wasn’t even ordered to pay as much as she was to them-they don’t pay her back even monthly the court fees he’s paying back! He stopped paying and now they told her she has to take him to court again to get him to pay the court ordered lawyers fees (to get her money back from them once payments are completed) Wait- woukdn’t that be their job to collect payment from him themself, abd sue him themself if he didn’t follow the courts order to pay them? They still have not given my friend back her money, even for the part of the total bill they did get payment from the father. Levine Law Firm and Erin Levine are crooks and horrible lawyers working together with Erin.
