You will not be disappointed!

Mr Lewin has a great rating and it's easy to see why! My husband was falsely charged with violating a restraining order so we called Attorney Lewin. He immediately went to work and took the time needed to fully prepare the case. We appeared before a clerk-magistrate in the Newburyport District Court ...where he was successful in getting the false allegation thrown out! Thank you, Mr. Lewin. Thank you!!

Attorney Lewin got case dismissed and restored my driving privileges!

I had a 28 year old warrant in Lowell District Court on a dui case that prevented me from getting a Florida drivers license. Attorney Lewin went to court and got the warrant cancelled and the case dismissed in one court appearance without me having to come to Massachusetts. My name was cleared from... the NDR list and I was finally able to get a Florida drivers license.

Best Decision For Representation I Could Have Made

I was charged with assault and battery on a household member. After searching for a local attorney I picked a few to call and have consultations with and Mr. Lewin was my first appointment. After speaking with him for over an hour during our consultation (his consultations are free of charge), I left... knowing full well I would be hiring Mr. Lewin for my representation. He was thorough in speaking with me and the charges I was facing. We went over my case; my story and statement, the police report, as well as the multiple possibilities of outcome. Mr. Lewin made it clear that it is extremely difficult for a man to have an assault and battery on household member (or as we commonly refer to as domestic violence) charge dismissed during pretrial. However the professionalism, drive, and straight forwardness he showed towards me made me confident that he was going to work hard and with my best interests as number one priority. Robert informed me that he believed we had a good case for the victim on record to have a 5th amendment right. Mr. Lewin made himself available at all times and called me on multiple occasions to not only update me on the case but also check in on me. Robert was at courthouse early and ready to meet with me before going in. He was again beyond thorough and informative of the stages of events that will happen for that date and his demeanor and professionalism put me at ease for the last time. In court proceedings he continued with his professionalism and knowledge of the law. Mr. Lewin pushed and continued fighting for a dismissal even when it was obvious the State did not want to settle case that day. As a result of this persistence, Mr. Lewin was able to have the Massachusetts DA admit to lack of evidence to continue the charges against me while having the alleged victim use her Fifth Amendment Right to seal the deal and get my case completely DISMISSED at pretrial. A feat that does not happen regularly with the charges I was facing. My writing is not on par with how much Attorney Lewin provided for me. He is hands down the best decision I could have made for counsel. From the beginning to the end he was there for me. He knew what he was doing and you will see that from the first time you meet with him. Mr. Lewin did everything and more than I imagined and am forever grateful for his work. Thank you Bob. Sincerely, thank you!

Mr. Robert Lewin is Highly Confident and Professional and Very Knowledgeable and Experienced!

I was facing a charge of Class C Drug Possession at Logan Airport by Massachusetts State Police.

Professional and highly respected by Judges and Prosecutors alike!

I highly recommend Attorney Lewin for all criminal proceedings. I was charged with identity fraud and credit card fraud and at the end my case received a VERY favorable disposition which allowed me to retain my no guilty plea without admission. At the beginning I was afraid and confused of what may h...appen but Attorney Lewin provided me with a clear understanding of what options I will have, understand the entire process clearly and most importantly his time whenever I had a question. He was very responsive and flexible with his time, which few times included late night meetings to accommodate my schedule. Attorney Lewin is a true professional, highly respected by fellow attorneys, judges and prosecutors which I personally observed. Mistakes happen, investing in a highly knowledgable and professional attorney is priceless! Bob Lewin is the attorney you want on your side! Thank you Attorney Lewin for all of your help! -BP
