Which session length should I request?

Every session brings the same informed legal analysis and guidance. A shorter call covers less ground. A longer one leaves time for support calculations and a closer review of more documents.

Do you offer a consultation about collaborative divorce?

Yes. As a member of Three Rivers Collaborative Divorce, we offer a free 30-minute consultation specifically about whether the collaborative process is a fit for your situation. Request it by name when you call.

Does engaging the firm guarantee that my matter will go to trial?

No. The firm's approach begins with preparation rather than with trial. Many matters resolve through negotiation, mediation, or conciliation, well before trial. Trial preparation begins early because preparation produces better settlements, but the goal is the right resolution rather than litigation for its own sake.

Strategy Session

$500 · One hour · By phone, direct with Attorney Levine.

How it works: send the request below. We run a conflict check first and, once it clears, reply with a time for you to confirm. Payment is made through LawPay after the time is set. Attorney Levine is often in court, so sessions are set as our schedule permits, frequently the same day or the next. Requesting a session does not retain the firm. Any further representation is a separate decision, made afterward by you and by us.

Shorter sessions: 45 minutes at $375, or a half hour at $250.

In Their Words

Over 100 combined client reviews on Avvo and Google.

“He was the quarterback that my daughter and I needed for our team. If he said that he would do something, he did exactly that. … All of Scott’s reviews are 5-star. I thought ‘No way.’ I was wrong.”

Kevin, Divorce Client

“Mr. Levine is the calm in the storm and I was blessed to find him. So patient and willing to explain how things work. He is strategic, invested and tenacious. I can only reiterate all the other 5 star reviews.”

Quick Contact

Write to the Firm

Use this form to request a call or ask a question. Every submission is read by Attorney Levine. The volume of calls and site submissions keeps us from replying to every message, and every call we can schedule is returned the same day. Note in your submission when a matter is urgent, and it moves up.

No opposing party information is needed at this stage. A conflict check is run before any paid session is scheduled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About the Process

Can I bring documents to a paid session?

Yes. If a complaint, custody order, MSA, or correspondence is central to the matter, send it once the session is scheduled and paid, so it is on hand. Documents are reviewed with you during the session.

Are sessions held in person or by phone?

By phone. Office meetings at the Bakery Square location are reserved for retained clients.

My matter is in Westmoreland (or another surrounding county). Can you help?

For paid consultation, document review, and second-opinion services, yes, on the same structure as Allegheny County matters. For court representation outside Allegheny County, no; the firm's court practice is exclusively Allegheny County.

What if my matter is urgent?

Indicate urgency in the Quick Contact form or on the free call. Active PFAs and other time-sensitive matters go to the front of the line.

What happens if there is a conflict?

If the conflict check prevents the session, nothing is owed. We cannot say why, and you should not read anything into it; a conflict means only that the office has a duty to someone else.

What if I miss my session?

Sessions are set as our schedule permits and confirmed by you. A session missed without notice is not rebooked; the fee is returned in full, and the time is offered to someone else.

What if I have several related matters?

A session covers as much ground as the time allows. Separation, who leaves the home, interim support, divorce, settlement options, property division, and litigation can all come up in one call, with less time on each. We begin with the most pressing issue, whatever is urgent or carries a deadline, and work through the rest from there.
