Free Ten-Minute Call
$0 · 10 minutes · Brief intake call to determine fit.
For anyone with a family law question. You speak directly with Attorney Levine, not a screener and not a paralegal. Ten minutes is enough to understand the shape of a matter, answer the question on the spot, or point you toward a Strategy Session. Most callers leave knowing more than they did before.
Scheduled as Attorney Levine's calendar permits — often same day.

The Strategy Session is direct attorney access, often the same day. Deliberate legal analysis and review by an attorney, not a calculator and not a search engine. No set agenda other than what you want to know, and what you should know that you never knew to ask.
What the hour is built for
- You have been served with a divorce complaint with multiple counts and need to know what it means and how to respond
- A custody complaint was filed and you need a plan
- A petition to modify support, or to modify custody, has been filed and you need to know your position
- A Rule to File your Inventory, or a 3301(d) Notice, has arrived and you are not sure what it requires
- You have received a Motion for something specific, a Petition for Special Relief, or a Motion to Compel
- You have a support phone conference, a support hearing, or a complex support hearing scheduled
- A custody conciliation, a judicial conciliation, or a DHO conciliation is coming up
- You need to file a Marital Asset and Liability Summary and want it done right
- You have received a Request for Production of Documents or Interrogatories to answer
- An MSA is on your desk waiting for a signature it may not yet deserve
- You want your financial exposure in a divorce understood before you make a move
- You need an alimony, spousal support, or child support figure calculated on your real numbers and reviewed against what a calculator cannot see
You leave with the analysis done: the figure calculated, the document reviewed, the filing understood, and a plan to respond. Sessions are scheduled as the calendar permits, often same day for time-sensitive matters. An hour is usually enough to get to the bottom of a matter; when a case is more complex, follow-up sessions are available for the ancillary pieces. Every session is direct with Attorney Levine, 21 years practicing, more than 18 of them exclusively in Allegheny County family law.
Book the Full HourQuick Contact Form
Free · Online form · Reviewed personally by Attorney Levine.
For matters where a written first contact makes more sense than a phone call: a question that needs context, a situation that is hard to explain live, or results from one of the free interactive tools you would like reviewed (include your figures; the tools themselves send nothing to the firm). Submit a brief description below.
Every submission is read by Attorney Levine. Most people hear back the same day. If the matter is urgent, say so in the message and it moves up.
Scope: court appearances in Allegheny County only; document review, advice, and mediation available for surrounding counties. The practice is limited to adult family matters — divorce, equitable distribution, child and spousal support, APL, alimony, custody, and PFA — and does not handle juvenile, CYF, adoption, or delinquency matters.
Free First Step
For prospects who want to write the firm without committing to a paid session — typically requesting a free ten-minute call, asking a fit-screen question, or following up on one of the free interactive tools. Six fields, sixty seconds. Reviewed personally by Attorney Levine.
No opposing party information is needed at this stage. The free ten-minute call is for understanding fit; conflict checks happen later if a paid session is scheduled.

How the Firm Approaches Intake
The firm keeps a deliberate caseload so that every matter gets real attention. That is a choice, not a limitation, and it is why clients hear back the same day. Every call and every form submission is read personally by Attorney Levine. If a matter falls outside the firm's scope, that is said directly on the call, because knowing early beats a meeting that will not serve you.
Same day and next day appointments are often available. If you call and we are free, we will answer. Every client we represent started exactly where you are: on the phone, in a hard week, looking for a straight answer.
Allegheny County and Surrounding Counties
The firm's court appearance practice is exclusively Allegheny County. Eighteen years of focused practice in one jurisdiction produces a familiarity with the judges, hearing officers, procedures, filing conventions, and local culture that broader geographic coverage would dilute. Allegheny County is what the firm does.
For matters in surrounding counties — Westmoreland, Washington, Butler, Beaver, Armstrong, Fayette — the firm provides paid consultation, document review, and second-opinion services on the same structure as Allegheny County matters. The firm does not appear in court in those counties. If your matter requires court representation outside Allegheny County, Attorney Levine can help identify appropriate local counsel during the consultation, drawing on a network of family law attorneys built over two decades.
The narrowing is deliberate. A focused practice produces better work than a broad one. The surrounding counties are well-served by capable local family law attorneys who know their own courts the way Scott knows Allegheny County. The honest answer, sometimes, is the right local attorney.
How the pricing works.
The free ten-minute call exists because not every question needs a paid session. Many family law matters are resolved without representation, and many callers simply need a clear answer to one question. Charging for that conversation would be wrong.
The Strategy Session is paid because some questions need real attorney time. An hour with a lawyer who has practiced family law for 21 years, more than 18 of them exclusively in Allegheny County, is not the same as an hour with a search engine. Pricing that time honestly respects both your time and the firm's. You leave with substantive attorney guidance on your matter, whether or not you go on to engage the firm.
For matters outside the firm's reach, or where representation would not serve the caller well, Scott will say so directly, on a free call or a paid one.
