Lebedin Kofman works from Broadway in Manhattan and names four attorneys.

503 reviews at 4.8. A free consultation and a 24 hour line, published. It publishes nothing about the rate or the retainer.

What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

LFL Certified 2026

Scored 68 out of 100 on measured evidence, above the 70 this tier requires, with every eligibility gate its state allows us to check cleared.

No public discipline

None of the 3 named attorneys carries a disciplinary status on the public register: no disbarment, suspension or disciplinary resignation. Those statuses persist, so the check reaches back years, but it would not show a censure or a suspension since lifted.

503 client reviews

Counted across 1 verified Google Business Profile listings, not collected by us and not solicited through us.

4.8 average over 503 reviews

A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.
