Before you assume your frets need leveling, the neck has to be adjusted correctly and checked. I would remove the strings and using a high quality straight edge, adjust the neck as close to dead straight as you can get it. Then you can see if the frets are really unlevel or the neck just needs to be properly adjusted.
