  Attorney James Levy (Florida Bar Number 177237) is the worst lawyer I've ever encountered. Avoid him at all cost. If you use him you'll likely have an extremely painful experience. I chose Mr. Levy to handle my divorce because at first glance he had positive reviews. I initially met with him to help me with a very simple divorce case. The divorce was uncontested, no children, with a prenuptial agreement in place. A case could not be more simple. Mr. Levy advertised a 3-4 week turn around once retained (2 weeks to draft paperwork & 2 weeks to process with courts). I agreed to work with him due to the rapid turn-around he was advertising. I was on a timeline because I'm military and was slated to deploy 3 months later, so it was important that the case be finished inside of that time-frame (which was reasonable). He said it wouldn't be a problem and should take no more than 1 month. In the end it took Mr. Levy 3 months to draft the paperwork (with me having to constantly prod him the entire way) and an additional month for him to file. The filing didn't happen until after I was overseas. Once I left the country Mr. Levy ceased all communications with me. He wouldn't return my phone calls or emails (dozens of each left). It took me coordinating with & physically sending an associate into his office with a power-of-attorney to get Mr. Levy to file the paperwork. After all of that, when he finally submitted the divorce package to the county it was incomplete (missing 1 simple document)! After filing he again ceased communications with me. Because of this my case sat in the court system for an additional 2 months before I was able to retain other counsel to finish the job. Overall it took more than 6 months for my extremely simple case to be resolved, and in the end I had to use someone else to finish the job. At first glance Mr. Levy comes across as professional and credible. When I first me with him he seemed to know what he was talking about when it came to FL family legal matters and initially he was punctual and responsive. Once I sent him the retainer all of that stopped. Communication with Mr. Levy was awful. Most of the time he was completely unresponsive to any mode of communication. I had a very negative experience with Mr. Levy and would not recommend him to anyone, ever. All I can say is buyer beware. Learn from my experience and do your homework before you retain this lawyer.
