AIA Agent, Chickie Leventhal: A Big Star For Those Behind Bars

May 31, 2011Posted by Eric Granofin News

chickie-leventhalSee the article below that profiled ExpertBail Agent, Chickie Leventhal. It was published in the May 30th edition of the Los Angeles Business Journal. According to the article, not only does Chickie post bail for popular celebrities but she is also regarded as one of the best bail bond agents in the industry.

Your average L.A. crime suspect has all manner of gritty bail bond companies to call. But who do celebrities and other high-income types call?

It may well be Chickie Leventhal of Chickie’s Bail Bonds in Manhattan Beach. If she bails you out, she’ll probably be wearing her trademark rose-tinted glasses. Just don’t tell her she looks like your mom’s bridge partner.

“I don’t believe I give the image of being a grandmother,” said Leventhal.

She has bailed out rapper Snoop Dogg, Girls Gone Wild creator Joe Francis and actor Tom Sizemore. Leventhal’s clients are referred by the 75 or so high-profile lawyers who have come to know her. That was the case when she bailed out Phil Spector, who was eventually convicted of killing model Lana Clarkson.
