History


Formed in 1999, Levenfeld Pearlstein (LP) is a model of inspiration and dedication in a world where many young law firms struggle to find their niche and path to success.  It took an attempt at being different to create LP, and it has taken effective leadership to guide the firm to where it is today.

From the start, the firm has focused on creating an environment where attorneys can make the best use of their time practicing law and be well supported by centralized management.  We are run like a business, not like a traditional law firm.  Our attorneys are able to devote much more time to client work than typically expected, and our business leaders do everything to ensure this remains possible.

Since the beginning, we have focused on building relationships with clients and being business advisors, not just lawyers.  Our attorneys understand their clients' businesses inside and out, and place as much importance on their clients' long-term goals as the clients do.  Our clients routinely tell us that this is what sets us apart, and we strive to guide them to success no matter what the situation.

LP continues to surpass its expectations and has evolved into a well-respected Midwestern law firm with both national and international exposure and abilities.  In its seventh year, the firm is comprised of more than 150 employees, including 75 attorneys.  

A desire to be different can go in many directions, and Levenfeld Pearlstein continues to prove that the right combination of people, values and leadership can fulfill and exceed the original vision for the firm.  We are a firm with a strong culture, motivated employees, and clients that understand why we're unlike other firms.

In 2004, the firm became a member of MSI, a worldwide association of legal and accounting firms.
