ABOUT LEVIN & STEIN

Levin & Stein is a nationally recognized civil litigation firm engaging in the resolution of construction defect claims. Our firm has been given the highest rating (AV) by Martindale-Hubbell based on our extensive experience and excellent reputation.

Levin & Stein has an impressive record in construction defect cases. In the past 15 years, Levin & Stein has recovered over $100 million on behalf of it homeowner association clients with construction defect claims against their developers. In the last five years alone, the firm has recovered over $50 million on behalf of its clients.

While Levin & Stein prides itself on being able to resolve most of the firm's construction defect cases without the need for a trial, Levin & Stein is one of the few construction defect firms to have actually tried a construction defect case on behalf of a homeowners' association to a jury. Levin & Stein is also one of the few construction defect firms to have litigated the application of the Washington Condominium Act to construction defect claims in the Washington appellate courts, where it is prevailed in a published opinion.

Levin & Stein supports and sponsors the Washington and Oregon Chapters of the Community Associations Institute (CAI) and Oregon Washington Community Association Managers (OWCAM). We are also very actively involved in both Oregon and Washington in the legislative process in promoting and protecting homeowner association and homeowner rights. The firm is also a proud supporter of the Metro Multifamily Housing Association.
