Cant thank Bob enough

I was involved in a car crash which ended up totaling my car. I was drunk at the time and had made a false statement to the office at the time about who was operating my car and also relayed the same information onto the insurance guys which technically made it insurance fraud. A letter from the poli...ce worried me so I contacted Bob. He spoke so professionally with me for about an hour and explained my situation very calmly and told me that he would act on it first thing in the morning and will try to keep matters out of court. I stopped by the next morning with the documents. He explained to me how we will handle the situation and after 15 minutes of me leaving his office, he gave me a call giving me the good news that the police are not pressing charges against me. He even called up my insurance company and got them to agree to take a second statement from me and they even agreed to pay out. Don't know what Bob said to them but it worked. What I appreciate about Bob the most is his professionalism. That can only be found in someone who has been playing this game for a very long time. I Thank you very much, Bob and I thank all the lucky stars I walked away from all of this without a single scratch.

I had several older warrants in two jurisdictions

I live in the Southwestern US now, and while trying to get a new driver's license, I was told that Massachusetts had denied my driving rights in all the USA. Due to indiscretions of my youth, I had two outstanding DUI and assorted other driving warrants against me in Massachusetts. One DUI in Me...thuen, and assorted traffic infractions, including DUI, in Lawrence. Bob Lewin handled it all expertly, and kept me from getting tangled up in the legal system while I had little time to spare for travel. He seems to know and be liked by all the court officials, and managed to get everything untangled in just three days of court appearances. I never had to say anything. I recommend him highly.

A Highly experienced, detail oriented, persuasive, self assured , respected attorney

We hired Attorney Lewin to represent my son on serious charges. They included: Leaving the scene of property damage; Failure to stop for a Police Officer; Negligent driving plus Speeding and Marked lane violations. Our position was that he was not the driver. The first time I spoke with Bob I knew ...we found our lawyer. He was extremely thourough, going over every little detail of the case, then explaining the law as how it pertained to my son's case. He told us what to expect , there were no surprises. We felt very protected and taken care of. Our case involved a two day jury trial, a nerve wracking experience. I was so impressed with the way Attorney Lewin handled himself in court, fighting for my son and not stopping to respectfully question the Judge or the DA whenever called for. He also has a very appealing , convincing, and assured manner when speaking to the jury. Despite the fact that the Prosecutor had a Police Officer as a witness who positively identified my son as the driver, Attorney Lewin convinced the that jury my son was NOT GUILTY of ALL charges. Words cannot describe how forever grateful I will be to Bob Lewin for giving my son's future back to him. I cannot recommend him enough.

unlicensed operation

I am a Chinese student here in Boston and that I was charged with unlicensed operation and that my lawyer and I were successful in getting the charge dropped. Not many information needed, and the court went well

Exceptional Attorney

After being cited for DWI, I hired Attorney Lewin. Due to his expertise, the case ended successfully at the Clerk-Magistrate's Hearing. Attorney Lewin is not only extremely competent and knowledgeable, but also a very caring and compassionate individual!
