Outstanding legal representation

Rob at The Law Offices of Lewin & Lewin provided exceptional representation during my domestic violence restraining order case. He took the time to thoroughly understand the details of my situation, ensuring every aspect of my defense was addressed. His professional yet empathetic demeanor made it cl...ear he genuinely cared about my well-being and the outcome of the case. Rob was honest about the challenges we faced but remained confident and focused, providing me with peace of mind throughout the process. He was also incredibly straightforward, presenting my case in a clear and compelling way that left no room for doubt. Thanks to his dedication and expertise, I felt fully supported throughout the case.

Domestic violence

Called him regarding a question about a restraining order (domestic violence) he didn’t charge me a penny or beat around the bush. Got straight to the point. He’s definitely highly recommend.

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!

Excellent and powerful representation

Mr. Rob Lewin is an OUTSTANDING attorney. I could write all day and night and it still wouldn't be enough to praise how dedicated, knowledgeable, and caring this attorney really is. I had previously been arrested and arraigned on domestic assault and battery charges when I hired attorney Lewin to rep...resent me for my case. During my initial consultation, which was free of charge, Mr. Lewin spent an hour and a half going over everything in full detail including; the facts of the case, the law, court procedure, etc. He was professional, compassionate, and experienced! I left Mr. Lewins office feeling very impressed and was 100% confident that I had found my lawyer. After retaining Mr. Lewin as my defense attorney, he appeared in district court with me for my pre-trial hearing. My case was set for trial and Mr. Rob Lewin and I were due back in court in a month. Mr. Lewin went to work immediately. I was ordered by the judge to have absolutely no contact with my girIfriend. Mr. Lewin got permission from the judge to communicate with her and he did. I met with attorney Lewin for two very lengthy trial preparation sessions. We were fully prepared for the trial but we were successful in getting her not to testify. The case got dismissed! I Highly recommend him! Thank you Mr. Lewin!

Excellent

I felt very reassured about everything after my first meeting with him. I was facing being charged with domestic assault & battery. We were able to get the case dismissed at a clerk’s hearing so it did not go on my record. Attorney Lewin is extremely knowledgeable, and good at what he does. He's a ...cut above the rest.
