Great lawyer, great guy

I cannot say enough good things about Mr.Lewin! I got into a tough situation with a retired police officer who is my neighbor. Thankfully I found Mr Lewin. He made me feel comfortable, explained everything to me thoroughly and made sure I understood. He made me feel confident that I was going to get ...out of this mess and was just all around a pleasure to work with. He constantly kept me informed with what he was doing and what the next steps would be. He would even call me during his time at home keeping me updated. If you need a good lawyer he is your guy. I also found his price to be extremely fair. Before getting in contact with him I spoke to a few other lawyers who barely gave me the time of day, no feedback, made me feel as though they didn’t want to work and were charging an arm and a leg. Mr.lewins price is very fair for how efficient he presents himself and for the work he does. Thank you again Mr.Lewin it was a pleasure working with you!

So glad I hired!

Bob was fantastic! From the first consultation he presented all the potential ways my case could go. He told me exactly what he would do to attempt to get things to go in the best direction. Literally in less than one hour from retaining Bob, he had been on the phone and did exactly what he hoped he ...could for the case! Went to a clerk hearing and the charge was not filed! best outcome possible, and all due to Bob's immediate action.

Leaving the scene of an accident charge

I was charged with leaving the scene of an accident with property damage earlier this year. I had no idea what to do so I searched around for attorneys and talked to half a dozen of them until I found Robert Lewin. He was very experienced in motor vehicle charges and explained the whole process to me... and eased my fears about the court process. He followed up with me on my court date, talked to my insurance company and the police, and as a result during the Court Magistrate Hearing criminal charges were not filed. I highly recommend Mr. Lewin if you are facing criminal charges.

Incredible Defense Lawyer

Attorney Lewin is an amazing lawyer! He has had over 25 years of experience. I was charged with leaving the scene of property damage. I was confused and incredibly scared. I immediately searched for the best representation I could find. Lewin not only has years of experience but he knows the in and o...uts of the court house. He clearly explained to me the legal dynamics of the law and the court house. He also laid out a detailed step by step overview on what actions he would take to clear my name. I would call him with any concerns I had and he would respond immediately to alleviate my worries. A few weeks later, Lewin defended me in court and I won my case. All the worry is over but I could not have asked for better representation. You need Lewin by your side!

The BEST Criminal Defense Attorney in this area

If you are taking the time to read this review, then just like I was you are looking to find the best criminal defense lawyer you can find. While I am sure every attorney wants to win their cases, not every attorney is the same. After doing my research I found Attorney Bob Lewin to be the best Crimi...nal Defense Trial Lawyer around that ONLY deals with Criminal cases. I didn't need a jack of all trades, I needed the best trial attorney I could find. Now that my ordeal is finally over I can attest to those 5 star reviews for Attorney Bob Lewin, as had I chosen someone else with less experience and expertise I may not be able to write any review period because even though I was innocent I faced a serious possibility of being incarcerated for something that I did not do. For a period of 90 days my life was turned upside down when I was falsely accused of domestic assault and battery and strangulation. I faced up to 5 years in jail, loss of my $80K job, my pension, my health benefits and my reputation. At age 54 I had never been arrested nor have I ever committed a crime and I did not commit the crime for which I was falsely accused. Even though the alleged victim confessed the following day that her injuries were self inflicted it did not matter; my case was scheduled for jury trial. I knew then that even though I am 100% innocent I needed the best trial attorney I could find. Attorney Lewin took over my case with only 5 weeks before the trial date. During the initial consultation Attorney Lewin was able to provide more insight to this case than I learned in the 7 weeks since I was arrested. From the moment I retained Attorney Lewin he was was in constant contact throughout this entire ordeal. From the outset my case was treated as a priority and never once was there a sense of being pushed to the back burner. Whether it was morning, noon or night Attorney Lewin was there for me. After extensive preparation for trial, Attorney Lewin successfully got me my life back when the Commonwealth dismissed the charges the day of trial. My ordeal was no joke and without Attorney Lewin in my corner the results may have been far different with a less experienced attorney. If you value your freedom and you want the best trial attorney available, I can proudly say Attorney Bob Lewin is that guy. I would recommend his legal expertise to anyone.
