Posted by Cal. | May 04, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Real Estate

Hard working, Honest, Expectional Negotiator and knows how to get the job done.

I recently built a house in northern VA and I had a problem where a utility pole was in the front middle of my property that had three big utility companies wires on it (1 electric, 2 coax and 4 fiber cables). The pole was pretty much an eyesore. I tried to work with the utility companies for 2 years... to get them to remove it since they didn't have an easement but that did not go anywhere until I retained Mr. Todd Lewis to represent me. Thanks to Todd, all three utility company were gone off the pole and the pole was removed. The cost to get that done was less than 15% of what I would have to pay only one company to remove it. He did all this without having to go to court. Thank you Todd. PS. I used to think that many lawyers just want to take your money until I worked with Todd. I am a true that lawyer like Todd will get your more for your buck, Todd proved it. Also, let's face it, not everyone can be a lawyer. Not only does Todd know the case laws, he also has the negotiations and mitigation skills that was required for my complicated case. This review does not really do Todd justice. What he did and the pressure he put on those companies was phenomenal and saved me a lot of money.

Posted by Eric Karisa | March 09, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Great Job!

Mr. Lewis handled my Chap. 13 with expertise. Although my case was not especially difficult or involving a huge sum of money, debt or assets, it was a tremendous emotional burden for me. We even managed to win a settlement from my creditor who violated the Stay. ( Obviously, I cannot discuss it). ... Mr. Lewis is however, a one-man team. I think he gets overwhelmed sometimes, mixes up cases--or simply forgets. This did occur several times. I took it upon myself to remind him. As long as he was on board, he would take to the next level--in his own words..." We're going to "Death-Con 5" (as a an ex military service person--this did make me chuckle. But it worked).

Excellent listener, adviser, and doer

I hired Todd in Summer 2015 to handle my bankruptcy case. I enjoyed working with Todd because he does not make you feel like "the meter is running" when you're working with him, or that he's trying to rush through your meeting to move on to something "more important." He took the time to thoroughly u...nderstand my situation, to discuss my possible options, and to respond to all my questions. He was professional, thorough, prompt in responding, and was understanding yet objective and reassuring. Because he has a wide range of expertise, he was able to provide a holistic view of what my options were and the ramifications of various courses of action. Because of Todd's diligence and professionalism, I felt well prepared to enter the bankruptcy process with both eyes open, and confident that it was the best choice for my situation. I was pleased and reassured to have an attorney of Todd's caliber to guide me through it.

Want a quality lawyer you can count on?

Todd Lewis is a true professional. He aggressively services his clients and fees are reasonable. He does not assume. He investigates and researches to make sure his approach to resolution of issues is the best, the safest, the most likely to end favorably. Todd has years of experience in real esta...te development, finance, construction, landlord/tenant matters, foreclosures, and loan modification negotiation. I just recently called on him for much-needed advice. My issues are on their way to resolution in a condominium homeowner's association dispute.

Posted by Jay | March 21, 2012 | Foreclosure

"Holistic Approach"

I was referred to Mr. Lewis because he specializes in multiple types of Law. I was facing the loss of my home to foreclosure and the one of the easiest way out is bankruptcy. Mr. Lewis listened to my story and "heard" what I had to say (no bankruptcy).. I wanted to approach my dilemma in a certain wa...y and he was able to do do just that. In fact I will be using Todd in helping me restore my credit and basically rebuilding my life. Have an attorney to be able to work in so many areas, is very reassuring. His "Holistic Approach" to law was new to me, but it helps clients like me with multiple, interrelated problems at once. He made me one promise- that I would not lose my home; and he accomplished it without bankruptcy. Amazing, I highly recommend him.
