Ownership
The L & L Companies are owned by brothers Michael and Ross Levine, the third generation of Levine’s to run the family business.
The company was founded in 1949 by grandfather Willie Levine, who ran the business until his son Alvin Levine took over. Alvin ran the company for almost 40 years, working with Uncle Elliot, Michael, Ross, and their sister Marni until Alvin passed away in 2008.
Today Michael and Ross, with their sister Marni oversee the operations of a group of companies, including L & L Painting Co. Inc, L & L Stone & Tile and VMR Civil.
Both Michael and Ross are graduates of Syracuse University and both have two children.
In addition to running the L&L Companies, both brothers are committed to the growth of NephCure Kidney International – the only organization committed exclusively to support research seeking the cause of FSGS and Nephrotic Syndrome.
