The best lawyer(s) out there!

Randy Lewis and his team are the best lawyers out there you’re going to find. Take it from me I had a 15 year felony and they really saved my life on this case. I worked with both Randy Lewis and Jessica hollan. They both took this case personally and went above and beyond to committing their all, No...t only their time to helping me get a more lenient sentence. That 15 year felony became a sentence of 4 weekends, to be served consecutively in a three step reduction. I just can’t say it any other way, they are the best you will find in Michigan! Day or night rain or shine, Randy and his team are happy to take your call and help you with the legal council you deserve. Give them a call today!!! You can’t put a price on your life, so why trust anyone else with your future and overall quality of life? No matter the case they’re not afraid to win, and they WILL NOT let you down.

Not all superheroes wear capes!

I had called several lawyers prior to engaging Lewis & Dickstein. They were all awful. They only seemed interested in the money, I was just another number and wouldn't fight for me or my family. My husband happened to come across several reviews on Lewis & Dickstein which prompted us to have a call w...ith them. The call led to an in-person meeting. Once I met Mr. Lewis, I felt instantly comforted knowing he had my back and best intentions at heart and would fight for me. Mr. Lewis exceeded expectations. From the first time I spoke with him he told me "I won't let you down, I won't let anything happen to you"...and indeed, he did not. I was charged with drunk driving with high BAC. It was my first offence. I was beyond scared. I was facing possible jail time, lengthy probation and rigorous alcohol testing. Mr. Lewis guided me every step of the way. Advising on what to do and not what to do. He was always available, and responded to every question and worry I had. He was firm but fair with me, no BS. The Judge assigned to my case was widely known for her strict stance on DUI. This did not phase Mr. Lewis one bit, he often reiterated "he won't let anything happen to me". Mr. Lewis was able to negotiate a lower charge of operating while intoxicated, which I plead guilty to. This all happened in a short period of time - it felt like forever - but I was assured this was a quick turnaround. Days before sentencing, I had a violation by missing one of my three daily test times. I was not aware I missed it. As soon as I was aware I went for a urine test, but was outside the allocated 12 hour time frame. This was terrifying. I had been so diligent throughout the process and to miss one right before sentencing was beyond frightening as I knew this would not look good to the Judge. Mr. Lewis and I may have had a few cross words following this incident, it was all in my best interest, and he continued to fight hard for me. At sentencing, Mr. Lewis not only had my testing violation dismissed, he miraculously got me NO jail time, NO probation, no therapy or AA. All I had to pay were some fines. This outcome went beyond my husband and my expectations. It was truly unbelievable. My family and I are eternally grateful to Mr. Lewis! Thank you Randy.

He Takes care of you, your in good hands!

The first thing the Randy Lewis said when we met was"Your in good hands and Ill take care of you" Everything he said was true. He had me feeling much more confident about the case and that we will not just take a plea deal which is what my initial Lawer wanted to do. With only one pre-trial conferenc...e Randy was able to bring my charges down from a pretty serious criminal case to a civil infection that equated to a fine and a few points on my license. There is not another attorney I would recommend if you are wanting the best in the business. Thanks again Randy Lewis!

Excellent & Professional Attorney

I am so appreciative of the work Mr. Lewis has done for me. After not having a valid drivers license for many years Mr. Lewis was able to change that. He walked through the process every step of the way. Any questions I had he took the time to thoroughly explain. My appeal for my license was a little... complicated but that didn't concern him one bit. He worked very hard on my case and went above and beyond. I can't thank him enough because I now have my driving privilege's back and all thanks to him. He really helped get my life back on track. I am now in pursuit of the job I wish I had Years ago and now its becoming a reality. Thank Randy, your awesome!

Great and trustworthy attorney thank you randy!!

I have been going through a 2nd DUI charge battling back and fourth with 1 of the top 3 hardest judges in Michigan. 52/3 district Court. One of the stipulations I had to go through for this charge was 24 months of strict, lots of testing probation. With all the crazy stuff they made me do, it was alm...ost as they were setting people up to fail. Long story short I violated over something so small and stupid. But with LOTS of alcohol and drug priors, although it doesn't sound like a huge deal, this case was in the judges eyes. I was facing a year maximum sentence to jail with the recommendation from PO being to only do 90 days and revoke probation. I had just started an awesome career and am about to be married. I was tripping out i could not go to jail and lose my job or my fiance!!! So I google the number 1 lawyers for criminal defense in Oakland County. Randy and his team popped right up. That day went into his office and hired him on the spot. I had never had a lawyer before so I was sick to my stomach and felt so hopeless. As time went on randy made us feel more trust in him and confident he was going to nail this thing on the head. And that he did. I was able to do an online web meeting with the judge, he made a sweet deal and got my jail time completely wiped with no more probation. All I had to agree to do was enter into a sobriety program for pretty much the remainder of what my proabtion time would have still been. The stress is gone and all goes back to normal. God bless you randy. THIS GUY IS THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!!

"Randall is a tenacious, aggressive defender. It is a well-known fact that he is not intimidated by the prosecution’s threat to take a case to trial. If his client’s case does proceed to trial, he will be fastidiously prepared. This fact alone benefits Randall’s clients. However, in addition to his fighting spirit, Randall is blessed with the ability to creatively think outside the box in order to solve those pesky unique issues which arise in every criminal matter."

"I have practiced family law for over 15 years. Over the past 6 years I have referred dozens of my clients to Mr. Lewis when they have been charged or have been threatened to be charged with a crime or been subjected to a Personal Protection Order. Mr. Lewis has represented my clients vigorously and professionally and has achieved unparalleled results in court. While other criminal defense lawyers consistently take the easy route by allowing their clients in domestic cases to plea to charges to which they are not guilty, Mr. Lewis stands for what is right and wins. I highly recommend him to anyone in this situation."

Criminal defense lawyer | Jan 28

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked with Randy on an important felony case involving a vehicular manslaughter a few years back and noted that he did a great job keeping his client from getting charged with a felony. Fast forward to today. I was waiting in Judge Chabot's courtroom and had the opportunity to listen to Randy conduct a sentencing hearing for a client that pled guilty to a serious felony; the stakes were very high. What struck me was how thoroughly prepared he was for everything that came up, and how zealously he guarded and advanced his client's interests against the prosecutor's arguments. He did a superb job for his client and minimized his exposure to incarceration under some very tough circumstances. My professional conclusion, you cannot go wrong by hiring Mr. Lewis; he is a credit to our profession."

"I have known Mr. Lewis for the past 10 years, and throughout that time he has maintained the same consistent level of professionalism inside and outside of the Courthouse. Randy is truly an example of a fighting attorney. He aggressively works a client's file to reach the client's desired result. In the cases that I have referred, the results achieved were better than what my client had hoped to accomplish. The best compliment that I can relay about Mr. Lewis is this .... if my family or I needed the assistance of a criminal defense attorney, Randy's office would be the only call that I would make."
