Origin and Background

In 2014, before co-founding Levy Goldenberg, Andrew R. Goldenberg played what his own attorney biography calls “a critical role in securing a $565 million judgment” for clients against issuers of defaulted notes, in a lawsuit challenging a dividend recapitalization on fraudulent conveyance grounds — one of the larger commercial litigation recoveries a solo or small-firm attorney is likely to cite. The firm relocated in March 2026 to 561 Seventh Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, a move confirmed by an independent press release and the firm’s own site.

What Makes This Firm Structurally Different

Levy Goldenberg is a litigation-first boutique rather than a full-service corporate firm; per its own site, it is “backed by 85+ years’ combined legal experience” concentrated specifically in commercial and real estate litigation. Goldenberg has tried commercial jury cases to verdict as lead and co-counsel in both state and federal court and has argued appeals before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit — trial and appellate experience beyond negotiated settlements.

Practice Areas

• Commercial litigation
• Contract disputes
• Fraud claims
• Real estate litigation
• Trademark infringement
• Partnership and shareholder disputes (business divorce)
• Employment disputes

Track Record

Per Andrew Goldenberg’s own attorney biography, the firm’s named partner secured a $565 million judgment in 2014 in a fraudulent conveyance action against issuers of defaulted notes. The firm’s site separately references a granted motion for summary judgment seeking partition and sale of a Brooklyn property in Supreme Court, Kings County. Awesome Attorneys has not independently verified the $565 million figure beyond the attorney’s own published biography. Past results in any matter do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter.

Client Voice

The firm’s site features a short attributed review calling Levy Goldenberg “top-notch commercial litigators,” credited to a named reviewer, Alex Pia. Awesome Attorneys did not identify a broader set of itemized, attributed client reviews across major consumer platforms as of this profile’s research date.

Beyond the Courtroom

Goldenberg serves as a professor at the Parsons School of Design at The New School, alongside his litigation practice, and is a committee member of the New York City Bar Association’s Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee.

Recognition

Awesome Attorneys did not identify a Martindale-Hubbell or Super Lawyers rating for this firm on the pages reviewed. New York does not maintain a board-certification system for business litigation comparable to Texas’s TBLS, so Awesome Attorneys does not apply “specialist” language to any New York business litigation attorney on that basis.

New York Legal Backdrop

Most commercial contract disputes in New York are governed by a six-year statute of limitations under CPLR § 213 for breach of written contract, while fraud claims generally must be brought within six years of the fraud or two years from discovery, whichever is later, under CPLR § 213(8). Business torts and commercial disputes are typically filed in New York State Supreme Court (the trial-level court despite its name) or in federal court under diversity or federal-question jurisdiction where applicable. None of this is legal advice; a specific commercial dispute should be evaluated by a licensed New York attorney based on the actual facts involved.

Awesome Attorneys Assessment

Levy Goldenberg’s clearest differentiator is a named partner with a documented nine-figure litigation result and genuine jury-trial and Second Circuit appellate experience, rather than a practice built primarily on negotiated settlements. The honest trade-off is that Awesome Attorneys could not independently verify the firm’s largest cited result beyond its own attorney biography, and the firm’s client-review record on its own site is thin. For a business client facing high-stakes commercial litigation who wants counsel with genuine trial and appellate depth rather than a settlement-only practice, that combination is a reasonable basis for a shortlist.

Methodology and Sourcing
