Compassionate and Knowledgeable

John Lewandowski takes the time to listen. He always makes me feel welcome and never rushes our conversations. He is responsive to my concerns and provides thoughtful and timely analysis and insights. He explains the probate process, discusses options, and describes what happens next. He does this al...l while maintaining a positive attitude despite dealing with difficult and emotional situations surrounding probate. Strongly recommend.

Dr.

John was hired as co-counsel for a will contest against my brother and sister here in Youngstown/Mahoning County. He was here numerous times, was always available via cell phone or email and kept me constantly updated. This was over a 6 month period. He also kept in regular contact with the atty here... in town. The trial against my evil siblings was settled out of court as I could not have asked for anything better. Do not believe any negative reviews against Atty Lewandowski. I spent a considerable amount of money on attorney fees and depositions but it was well worth it. The decision ended up favorably for me mainly due to this man's tireless efforts. We will continue the friendship that developed between us and plan on keeping in touch and visiting regularly.

Made a mess of my case

A very big mistake, absolutely terrible representation. John was never was up to date with the details of my case, every conversation was a repeat of the same information that he was previously given, as he seemed to have retained nothing and was prepared for nothing. His inattentiveness to the case ...was truly beyond the pale. if you need a lawyer who can stay on top of your case and not do most the work yourself, look elsewhere. I ended up doing most of the work myself and ultimately had to hire another lawyer to fix his very costly mistakes. Of course it always makes you look bad when you switch lawyers.

Disapointing

My experience with John P. Lewandowski and his law firm has been a disappointing experience from nearly the moment he was retained. . I hired John Lewandowski to negotiate a business dispute in the summer of 2017 . The lack of his ability to retain/comprehend information and properly communic...ate with me is truly unimaginable. I would not want anyone to experience the many months of frustration that I have endured. This matter is still not resolved but they have all my money. I have tried numerous time to contact and communicate with John's Law Firm with no meaningful response. It's hard for me to understand that anyone that dedicates themselves to passing the bar exam would conduct themselves in this manner.

Super attorney honest and helpful with probate and estate law

My sister died with a will and a Transfer on Death, and Pay on Death. She lived in Toledo, Ohio. I live in Dayton, Ohio. My sister the named executor, lied about the estate and didn't probate our deceased sisters will. It was a real mess. I retained John Lewandowski to help find out what was really g...oing on with her estate. My dishonest sister took all the money and sold the house and kept the money for herself. We were all named beneficiaries in the will. But because my dead sister didn't put all our names on the T.O.D., and the P.O.D. we got none of the bulk of her estate. John Lewandowski investigated the estate, explained our options, and gave us sound legal advise. He was fair and honest with us. He helped us understand the laws of probate. I found his council very helpful. I have not come across an attorney with such high integrity, honesty, and compassion. He has empathy for his clients. He took my case and worked with us so we didn't have to travel three hours one way just to meet with him. I called several other attorneys who did not want to help us without the hours of travel. He went above and beyond to help us. I know if you retain him as we did, you will be satisfied and pleasantly surprised. As we were.
