Outstanding representation

Ms Dews was very well prepared and represented me in such a way as to fulfill the demands of the court while saving me time and money. As a busy professional I relied on Ms Dews to advocate for me in a complex case. She did so admirably and I do not hesitate to recommend her.

I have found Lydia to be very knowledgeable and thorough in her research and preparation. She was very fair and yet dedicated to the case. I had no trouble taking her advice. I would recommend her highly.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Thorough. Responsive. Honest.

I had a situation where I was in a custody battle with my son's mother. Not to say too much about her, but she was in a very bad place psychologically and physically due to her drug use. Ms Dews did not promise me the outcome that I wanted. Or give me false hope. But she made sure she did everything ...in her power to keep my son safe. And thats exactly what she did. I cannot express the gratitude in words. I see my son every morning I wake up and know that he is safe due to the actions on Ms Dews.

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.
