Client Reviews
“Words cannot express how grateful we are to Andijar & Levine for everything they have done for us. From day 1 they have been there right by our sides throughout this whole process. My husband and I were in a terrible car accident in November 2015 and didn’t know what to do. We were both injured and without a car since it was totaled in the crash so Andijar & Levine sent one of their representatives name Charlie to our home to get the process started. Charlie was very professional and reassured us that everything was going to be fine. Marc Andijar was awesome from day 1 as well. He oversaw every detail of each of our cases and always took the time to personally answer questions by phone and email. My husband and I worked very closely with our attorney Anthony K. Goodman. He always went to bat for us and fought tooth and nail to get us both the best possible and fair settlements. Just like Marc Andijar, Tony was always reachable by phone, email and even text. When the time came for our depositions Tony walked us through that whole process as well. We would also like to thank Eleana Mendieta for always handling the day to day details like getting our appointments scheduled and always being on top of her game. Andijar & Levine is so on the ball that a few times I accidentally pocket dialed them and I always got a call back from Anna at the front desk! We definitely recommend Andijar & Levine and will refer anyone who is looking for an attorney to use this law firm!!’
- Jessica D.“I was very pleased with the service I received from the law firm of Anidjar and Levine. I was glad I picked this law firm to represent me. The Shire was very attentive and worked hard to make sure all of my concerns were sufficiently addressed. I would highly recommend this law firm to anyone!”
- Viviana J.“Five star: I was in Florida visiting relatives when I had a horrible car crash. Two weeks later, the day I was to return home and at the recommendation of a relative I contacted A&L just to see what they thought. I delayed my trip home because three days later I found out I had a serious neck fracture which could have resulted in complete paralysis if emergency surgery was not performed. A&L saved me and got my case resolved in no time. Thanks to everyone there and Jonathan Holtz in particular for an outstanding result.”
