“I hope I never need to call you.” I have heard that response many times throughout my career when introducing myself as a bankruptcy attorney. The unfortunate reality of our current economic times is that often people do. Many people today are facing financial challenges that they never expected to, and are afraid and unsure of where to turn for help. If you are in debt, being sued, losing your home, facing garnishments or repossessions, I am here to help you. With proper advice and representation you can solve your debt problems, save your home and other assets and get a fresh start to put you back on the road to financial freedom. “Stand up for your rights. Don’t give up the fight.” – Bob MarleyYour bank has an attorney, and you should too. I have dedicated my life and professional career to helping you, the consumer. Too often we read in the news about banks breaking laws to steamroll the consumer. The little guy often feels helpless and lost when facing big banks, corporations and debt collectors. I will fight to keep you in your home, save your assets, and make sure there is a level playing field. In my 16 years of experience as a bankruptcy attorney I have learned that most of my clients are good people that have fallen on hard times. Job loss, divorce, medical issues, or bad investments are the main reasons for bankruptcy. None of us really plan for these things to happen, but they just do. We can’t change the cards we are dealt, but we can change how we play the hand. Planning your bankruptcy case takes the skill, knowledge and expertise that is unique to our law firm. Each case brings its own set of circumstances. There is no “cookie cutter” bankruptcy. I am sensitive to each clients’ needs and issues. We are a dedicated team of professionals who know how to navigate through complex Bankruptcy laws and the court system. Your case is our priority. I graduated from the Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad Law School in 1997, after earning my undergraduate degree from Lehigh University in 1994. In 1997, I took my first law job as a bankruptcy attorney for one of the local Chapter 7 panel trustees, where I gained invaluable experience working on all phases of bankruptcy litigation. Building on that experience, I entered private practice because I knew I wanted to represent the consumer. I have the knowledge and experience to file any type of bankruptcy case, from the simplest to the most complex. I have successfully handled thousands of Chapter 7 and 13 cases, representing both individuals and businesses. I provide personalized, compassionate and aggressive representation because I know that filing for bankruptcy can be one of the most difficult decisions you will ever make. My goal is to provide you with cost effective and efficient legal services to obtain the best possible result in your bankruptcy case. I will plan a strategy for your case to obtain the fresh start that you need.

I have been an attorney since 2000. I love my career because I enjoy helping people with their legal problems and navigating through the legal system. I was a paralegal prior to attending law school at a labor and employment firm, and I knew I wanted to do more to help people problem solve; I wanted to be the voice when they were unable to speak up for themselves. I relocated to Florida to attend the University of Central Florida where I obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in English Literature before I received my Juris Doctorate Degree from Nova Southeastern University. I started my attorney career as a prosecutor in Orange County Florida. I prosecuted cases in Criminal Traffic, Misdemeanor, Juvenile and Felony before I went into private practice. I enjoy problem solving for my clients, and ensuring that their due process rights are not being violated. I practice in Family Law, Collaborative Law, Adoption (domestic) Bankruptcy, Criminal Defense, Dependency and Wills. Our team at Schwam-Wilcox & Associates strives to do our very best at all times, and to be sure to serve the needs of our clients. Our client's feel as if they are our only client, and they are always important to us. We pride ourselves on communication and attention to detail. We appreciate every opportunity to assist people with their legal needs. Our team is also very active in the legal and non-legal community. Schwam-Wilcox & Associates holds 2 food drives each year to help fill a local food pantry to ensure the members of our community have something to eat for themselves and their children. Our team volunteers to perform legal work for the people who qualify and for children who need a voice.. I am not only an attorney, but I am also a Florida Supreme Court Family Law Certified Mediator and a Guardian Ad Litem. I like to help people in their time of need, I like to change my clients’' feelings of despair into hope and joy. Legal matters are very stressful, emotional and can be expensive; however, if you have an attorney on your side that you can trust, you will be in a better place during your legal challenges. I am honest, upfront, trustworthy, and I would appreciate the opportunity to work with you to achieve your legal goals. I cannot make any promises regarding an outcome in your case; however, I can promise to give you respect, diligence, the truth (if you want to hear it or not, there is no "candy-coating") hard work and dedication to your case. You will never be a number, and you will always be able to reach part of your team to discuss your case.. You are the team leader on your case, we are the hired help. We are the "advisors" that give you the legal options and you make a decision on how you want to run your case, it is your life and your children. We will tell you what we think is the best choices for your legal strategy according to the facts of your case, and you will ultimately tell us which of the strategies presented to you that you want to use on your legal matter.. I have a significant amount of trial experience as a prosecutor and as a private attorney. I have practiced all over the state of Florida from Colombia County to Miami-Dade. I have my main office in Orlando, and have office space to use in Kissimmee and The Villages for clients that have cases in those areas. I have an attorney and assistant at the office that speak Spanish.. We wan to see you succeed in your legal situation, When you're going through your worst, we are at our Best! call us today or e-mail at or visit our website at You need an attorney you can trust and that you can depend on to giveyu sound legal advice.

Practice Areas: Divorce, Business, Divorce & Separation, Divorce & Separation
Cary Levinson’s practice is concentrated on prenuptial agreements, postnuptial agreements, divorce, family law, business law, and criminal defense. Cary firmly believes that each case is unique and requires a specific strategy to achieve the client’s goals. Born in Miami Beach, Florida and raised in Palm Beach, Florida, Cary obtained his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of Florida’s Warrington College of Business, with Cum Laude honors. After his undergraduate studies, Cary gained valuable experience working at a business law firm, providing him with a proper foundation to effectively advise business clients as well as the ability to apply the same principles to family law related matters, including complex divorces and prenuptial agreements. Cary attended law school at Florida International University College of Law, where he was involved in multiple law school organizations, completed a Commercial Law independent study program, and volunteered for the Eleventh Judicial Circuit Family Court Self-Help Center, assisting spouses and parents in the drafting and submission of various legal documents and forms. This experience opened Cary’s eyes to the difficulties that litigants face when they choose to enter the legal system without an attorney. Before co-founding Levinson & Capuano, Cary practiced family law, business law, and civil litigation at two small law firms in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. In his focus on family law matters, Cary handled cases including father’s rights, paternity, custody, visitation and timesharing, divorces, modifications, child support actions, and other family law matters. Cary brings to the table a strong family law and business law background, both in study and in practice. With an understanding that the law does not remain constant, Cary believes that successfully practicing law is not only a matter of experience, but also a matter of staying on top of changes, adapting to new legal environments, and thinking on your feet.
