Leonard Accardo, Jr.

Leonard Accardo, Jr. is Of Counsel at AccardoLevesque Law Offices, LLC in Providence and focuses on business and commercial matters. His practice includes representing lenders and borrowers in commercial transactions, preparing documentation for SBA loan programs, and advising debtors and creditors in loan workouts and receivership proceedings. He also works on business entity formation, commercial leases, and business asset acquisitions, providing legal support across financing, restructuring, and transactional needs.

Accardo earned a J.D. from the University of Bridgeport School of Law and a B.B.A. from Nichols College. His business education and legal training support a practice that regularly connects financing, entity structure, contracts, and commercial property concerns. That background is relevant when clients need to document loans, organize companies, negotiate leases, acquire business assets, or address distressed financial relationships involving creditors, debtors, and court-supervised receivership proceedings.

Accardo’s work spans commercial lending, SBA financing, business formations, lease negotiations, asset acquisitions, workouts, and receiverships. He has also served as a court-appointed receiver. His practice requires attention to the documentation that governs financial relationships and business transactions, as well as the procedural demands that arise when a borrower or creditor faces a workout or receivership. He coordinates business entity formation with accountants and financial consultants when those disciplines intersect.

Leonard Accardo, Jr. is admitted in Rhode Island and before the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island. He is a member of the Rhode Island Bar Association and American Bar Association and has served on the Rhode Island Bar Debtor/Creditor Committee. His professional and community involvement has included the Providence Performing Arts Center Theatre’s Friend Committee and service connected with the St. Thomas More Society and other organizations.
