RVC Village Attorney Receives Leadership in Law Award

Rockville Centre resident A. Thomas Levin, a member of the law firm of Meyer, Suozzi, English & Klein P.C. and the village's attorney was recently honored for Leadership in Law by the Long Island Business News in the Partner category.

The Leadership in Law Award recognizes Levin’s qualities of experience, dedication, hard work, skill, tenacity, excellence and compassion, all resulting in a positive impact on Long Island.

“When the late, legendary John F. English founded this law firm in 1960, his vision was to build a law practice staffed by only the most talented and respected attorney," said Lois Carter-Schlissel, managing partner at the firm. "Clearly, Mr. Levin is part of that legacy and is representative of the most celebrated legal professionals comprising the Meyer, Suozzi firm. He is a testament to the firm’s unparalleled expertise of lawyers who helped earn our well-deserved reputation as a firm with street smarts in the corridors of power.”

Levin represents public and private sector clients in the fields of local government law, land use regulation and commercial litigation, and matters relating to professional responsibility, ethics and disciplinary proceedings.

Levin presently serves as Village Attorney for eight Nassau County villages including Rockville Centre and is special prosecutor for the Village of North Hills. He is pro bono counsel to the RVC Conservancy, has been pro bono general counsel to the Day Care Council of Nassau County, Inc. and the Rosa Lee Young Childhood Center for more than 35 years, and represents many not for profit organizations and individuals on a pro bono basis.
