Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I am a grandchild and will definitely disclose this now in future. However, this was not in any way supposed to be promotional material or advertising as I do think the subject is very well notable enough to have a page.
I sincerely apologize and in no way am trying to go against any conflict of interest rules and will change the edit to the article to disclose this. Is there any way I could get an independent person to edit this article and review, or is there any way I can still get it approved upon disclosure that I have a family relationship?

I've reviewed it again. In sum, it is unlikely that this article will be accepted. Articles about other attorneys on Wikipedia are not relevant to whether this article will be accepted. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:29, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
Thank you for reviewing; I appreciate it as I know you are a volunteer. I have decided to just edit the pages of the litigation he was a part of to include his positions. I just want to disclose to you since I have a COI:

Draft declinedThank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.
FeedbackThe reviewer, Voorts, left the following feedback:
provide significant coverage: discuss the person in detail, not brief mentions or interviews lacking independent analysis;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the person, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.
Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.
For a Wikipedia article about a person to be published, that person must be notable. A person is notable if you can provide multiple, independent, reliable sources that provide significant coverage—in-depth discussion—of the person. Coverage of a person is significant if the person is covered in depth in the source; passing mentions and routine news stories are generally not significant. The sources provided here do not contain significant coverage of Levin. Almost all of them, other than the single obituary, are passing mentions of Levin. It is highly unlikely that he would be considered notable for Wikipedia's purposes.
