Mark E. Lewis

Thank you Mark for representing me in family court. I’m pleased with outcome which ended up being many court appearances, many conversations, and much communication between us in a year plus. I would recommend him. The help is greatly appreciated.

I filed chapter 7 bankruptcy this past year. I was nervous, had a million questions and Mr. Lewis was able to answer them all. Mr. Lewis was patient, informative and responded to all inquires quickly. What I appreciated most was his honesty. He knows the law and made me aware of all possible outcomes. I strongly recommend Mr. Lewis.

Abusive and not a good choice for anyone who has been in a domestic violence situation. He yelled at me in a the courthouse the day I met him. He failed to inform my of any progress on the case prior to that meeting, and then blamed it on me. I included in every correspondence, that texting is not a good choice, to please use the landline. I have no cell service at my rural house. I have complex PTSD and got yelled at in front of a YWCA abuse advocate and my daughter's (kind) attorney. He then refused to represent me because I cried when he yelled. Narcisssicistic, uncaring and mean. Mr. "Z" from neighborhood legal in Batavia is representing me on another case with my abuser and although I have the same PTSD and lack of understanding of the court process, he has been nothing but kind and understanding. If you want zero communication and to be yelled at, Lewis is an excellent choice. If not go elsewhere. Full disclosure, Lewis was my court appointed attorney during the shift from virtual to in-person due to Covid. That may have contributed to the lack of understanding. He told me I was "making myself a victim" My abuser was convicted on all counts. I am not a victim. I am a survivor of 10 years of domestic violence, whose abuser is now abusing through the court system. Mark had zero understanding of that dynamic and power imbalance. He lacks even the simplest of human kindness and decency. I was told he had a stroke recently. Perhaps that is why? I wish him the best with his health, but this review is honest and I would avoid him as a client.

Mark Lewis took care of divorce paperwork for me, or should I say I had to type it myself. He never answers the phone, takes days to answer email and promises next week, next week. I needed a simple letter typed to my ex-wife to request an appraisal report she refuses to give up, he promised for months, I even typed that letter too and gave him names and addresses, yet every time he asks for the information again, after waiting months, all summer actually, finally he says he had a heart attack and can't do anything more with my case when he never did anything in the first place. He is by far the worst lawyer, reminds me of Joe Pesci in the movie 'My cousin Vinny' accept at least he showed up for his client and at least tried to be a lawyer. If you want the equivalent of a keystone cop as your lawyer, then hire him, otherwise he is lazy and unprofessional and wasted my entire summer promising to help me, to which he didn't.
