Robert Y Lewis

I am a Australian citizen living in Sydney, and have dealt with Robert Lewis over the last 15 years, Mr Lewis has acted on my behalf in reclaiming funds from illegal trading of shares by an unscrupulous stock broker and bank. In my dealings with Mr Lewis I have found him reliable trustworthy and e...fficient, and have complete confidence in recommending him and his company to anyone seeking legal advice or services.

Bob Lewis Lawyer Review

"Bob Lewis is a terrific lawyer!  He is able to deliver very favorable results at a cost-effective price.  Bob brings all the intellect and skill, based on his superior academic credentials and experience as a big- New York law firm partner and and as a federal prosecutor.  He is very practical and r...epresents his clients with the highest integrity and professionalism.  His credentials and reputation really help him deal with opposing lawyers as well as state and federal judges.I have referred several companies and friends of mine to him for help with their business and personal legal needs, and they have consistently told me how satisfied they have been with Bob and his firm's work."

Litigation lawyer | Feb 22

Relationship: Co-worker

"I have known Bob Lewis for more than 15 years. We were law partners together at Shaw Pittman in the 1990’s, where I had a banking and tax practice. I continued to work with him while I was a partner at Winston & Strawn. My clients and I have often turned to Bob for advice and representation on matters with litigation components. Bob is especially adept at representing individuals and small businesses in disputes with larger institutions, such as the government or large corporations. He ably performs and loves the role of David against Goliath. Bob is an experienced litigator who has tried many cases, both civil and criminal, to verdict. However, he always looks for ways to reach a satisfactory result at the earliest point. He has a keen legal mind and practical good sense. Consequently, other lawyers respect his work and, like me, often refer litigation matters to him. Anyone seeking litigation advice or representation will be very well served hiring Bob."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
