Helpful and Honest

One of my lawyer friends recommended Lewis to us. We got screwed by (un)Legacy Pools out of Melbourne and needed some representation. When I called he answered the phone and we spoke about the issue. He was a good listener and advised us on what to do. Just from that conversation I could tell he was ...a person I could trust. Lewis took us through the whole process that we needed to get through and he was very thorough and communicated well with us. He is also a very honest and intelligent person. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent lawyer.

Personable, helpful and very down to earth

My sister and I needed some help settling an issue with our mother’s estate. We were referred to Mr. Van Alstyne by our estate attorney. He definitely, lived up to her recommendation. He charged us a very fair fee and answered our questions in a clear and concise manner. We are very happy with hi...m.

Landlord-Tenant Eviction

I couldn’t have received a better lawyer than Lewis! From the start to the end, he was very attentive. It wasn’t the case of chasing your lawyer to get things done, he got things done that I didn’t even know that needed to be done. He explained all my options and scenarios we would have during medita...tion and court. He was very attentive and quick to communicate with us and the courts. He got questions answered for us and we never worried about it he would get back to us. Lewis has beyond amazing communication skills that made this very difficult situation, very easy to understand. With my case, my family was being falsely evicted and we were also dealing with neglect on maintenance at the property we were living at. Thankfully we were able to resolve everything in court, we won, and everything was in our favor. I can’t thank Lewis enough for the job that he’s done. Definitely someone I’ll recommend to anyone in the future.

Consultation for mechanic’s lien

Lewis provided concise and articulate consultation, which bettered my understanding for how the mechanic’s lien process works, and how to asses the potential risks and roadmap for my specific case.

Great Attorney

We had a great experience all around with Lewis and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for legal help. He was always available to personally answer any questions or concerns we had by phone or email. He settled our case in a fast and efficient manner.
