ABOUT Brandon

With his youth spent engaging in useless arguments with friends and family, Brandon Leavitt’s legal training began at a very young age. Taking a small detour in college to become a biochemist, Brandon ultimately chose law school when he realized he was the boring guy at cocktail parties.

Brandon is an Eagle Scout (literally) who loves to give free advice to anyone willing to hear him, but when his wife says, “don’t you lawyer me” he knows it’s time to scale it back. If Brandon were condemned to eat one food for the remainder of his life, it would be pizza.
