Thomas Levin, a member of the law firm of Meyer, Suozzi, English & Klein P.C. and chair of the firm's municipal law, land use and environmental compliance practice and the professional responsibility practice was honored for leadership in law by the Long Island Business News (LIBN) 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 attorneys. Clearly, 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," said managing partner, Lois Carter-Schlissel. "We are delighted that Levin's efforts have been appropriately honored and we are proud to call him our colleague."
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 and is special prosecutor for the Village of North Hills. He serves or has served as special counsel to scores of other municipalities and school districts, including Nassau County, the City of Long Beach, the City of Glen Cove, the Town of Hempstead, the Town of North Hempstead, the Copiague School District, Rockville Centre School District, Hempstead School District, Hewlett-Woodmere School District, Western Suffolk Board of Cooperative Education, Town of Brookhaven, Great Neck/North Shore Cable Commission and The Public Access Television Corp.
