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!

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

Best lawyer in the Courtroom

I owe Attorney Lewin a tremendous amount of gratitude. I was arrested and charged with domestic assault & battery, witness intimidation, and violating an abuse prevention order. I went online and found Attorney Lewin's website. With all the positive reviews, I gave him a call. He spent well o...ver an hour explaining the charges and the process. He sounded very professional and extremely knowledgeable about the law. I knew I found a lawyer that would fight for me. He kept me well informed throughout the whole process. I met with him several times to prepare for trial to know what to expect in the courtroom. He is very ethical, cares and wants to win! The first trial was the violation of abuse prevention order heard in Ayer District Court. It didn't take long to realize I had the best lawyer in the courtroom. He knows what he's doing. I was found "not guilty." The next day in Lowell District Court for the Domestic Assault & Battery and Witness Intimidation charges, Attorney Lewin was successful in getting all the Commonwealth's witnesses to refuse to testify against me and the charges were "dismissed." He was amazing. Thank you Attorney Lewin for giving me my life back.

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.

amazing professional

I had an outstanding warrant for over 13 years and had no knowledge of it. I recently moved to NC and was in the process of obtaining a pistol permit when I was informed by the local sheriff that I had this warrant. I contacted several lawyers in the MA area and Mr. Lewin was the only one who respond...ed in a very timely manner. I informed him of the situation and he immediately got to work finding out the particulars. Once he spoke with the DA he contacted me and gave me a worst and best case scenario. Two days later he contacted me again and informed me that he had taken care of my legal troubles and that I would not have to take time out of my schedule to travel back north to deal with the situation. He took just four days (to include a sat. and sun.) to learn my story, contact all appropriate parties involved and have the case dismissed. The price he charged was lower than most consultation fees fro someones service. During these four days three other local attorney's that I left messages with contacted me with extraordinarily high costs to deal with the issue. All three informed me that I would also need to come back and take care of it in court. Robert has done an amazing job and I would undoubtedly refer him to anyone needing legal help, and praise him on his professionalism. This man will definitely be a great asset to anyone in the area who is in need of a lawyer. I give him 5 STARS for his work without question. AMAZING LAWYER TO HAVE IN YOUR CORNER!!
