I had a question about something at work. Over two phone calls he gave me solid advice and provided broad outlines of relevant law. All for free, even though I'd insisted on paying. I'd gladly recommend him to anyone.
I recently spoke to Drew regarding a situation at my former employment. Drew provided great guidance as well as information on how I could handle this situation. I appreciate his insight n the matter.

Comprehensive and quick
Drew Lewis was able to help me successfully navigate a tricky negotiation with a former employer. He demonstrated expertise not only in the legal options available to me, but context and nuance of how such agreements typically unfold among startups.
He was extremely prompt and clear in his communication. To the point where I think my colleagues thought I contracted an entire legal team - how else would I be able to 'contact my lawyer' and have an answer within 5 minutes? Not saying that will happen every time, but when it did, it was extremely impressive.

Knowledgeable and Reliable
After making a pay discrimination claim at my company, I was immediately retaliated against. I called a number of firms, but to no avail. Drew was referred to me by a larger firm and I couldn't have been more pleased! He was completely professional and knowledgeable. I've never been in such a stressful and uncomfortable situation in the workplace, but Drew reassured me and broke everything down. He had no problem explaining things to me several times and was quick to answer any emails and/or calls. I wouldn't be where I am now without him and I highly recommend his services!

Honest, Hard-working, Diligent, & Knowledgeable
These are the the words I would use to describe Drew. We had issues with our landlord as we were moving out of our rental. The landlord was threatening to keep all of our deposit and charge us with a huge landscaping bill. Drew's advice and consultation proved to be extremely valuable in this situation. He put our fears and concerns at ease and helped resolve the situation without any court filings or court appearances, saving both parties time, energy, and money. Above all, he a true professional with a solid approach to the law. I've know and used lawyers for 20 years, and Drew is a true professional who can help you. I strongly encourage anyone to speak with him about your issues.

Prompt, Thorough Service
I was entering into a new job opportunity right out of school, and the Lewis Law Office helped me realize some of the points of my contract that weren't in my favor. The Lewis Law Office not only pointed those out, but gave me constructive advice on how that could impact me and my family in the future, and how to negotiate better terms. With their advice, I have now successfully negotiated a contract that I am comfortable signing. Drew was incredibly helpful and prompt, and I felt like I was treated as a priority client. I highly recommend The Lewis Law Office for any employment law needs.

Excellent Help On A Separation Agreement
I needed help on an employer related agreement. I highly recommend Drew. He is very knowledgeable and provided a detailed assessment of the agreement. With Drew's guidance, I was able to have some leverage to negotiate where I was able to have peace of mind. He always got back to me very quickly when I had any questions. I will definitely seek Drew's help again for any employment law issues.

Review of services
Over the past 15 months Drew from The Lewi Law Office has been advising me on an employee relations matter with a previous employer. Drew is knowledgeable, kind & extremely helpful in what seemed like a never ending loop with my retained legal counsel (principal attorney). Had I met Drew before I retained my principal attorney I wouldn't have needed any additional legal representation. His experience & approach was the correct one in securing me the settlement I needed given the complexity of the situation. I highly recommend Drew & will continue to seek his guidance for all future legal matters.

Awesome Lawyer and Great Guy
I was dealing with a very complicated and messy whistle blower issue with my old employer. Knowing nothing about the legal process and having no experience dealing with matters like this I first felt very overwhelmed and frustrated. Drew reassured me with the guidance I received. Drew was a excellent advisor and he quickly turned my confusion into a practical plan that I feel led to the best outcome for my family and I. I highly highly recommend The Lewis Law Office for any employment law matters. Drew is the man.

Relentless Advocacy, Responsive Communications
Drew worked very hard on my case, and served very well as an advocate and advisor. I appreciate that he listened to what was important to me, and also gave me his opinion and the course he thought was best/most practical to pursue. He explained things in a way that I could understand, made certain he was clear with the facts and what I wanted, and presented me with information at every step. He's good, he's smart, and he was very effective for me. I'm happy to recommend him to businesses or individuals in need of help with employment law.

Excellent consultation on California employment contracts and compensation
I had an somewhat nuanced employment matter for which litigation was being threatened. I contacted a number of firms but ultimately got the best counsel from Drew Lewis. He succinctly explained the applicable labor and contract laws and advised me regarding the strength of my position and negotiation strategy. It was high value consultation and I would recommend him to anyone.

Choose wisely
I contacted Mr. Drew Lewis for a consultation. He called me back the same day, which was the good part. But when we were talking and I tried to explain the situation, it seemed he was in a hurry to do something else and he interrupted me and said " Let me ask you questions, if you don't listen to me, we can end this call RIGHT NOW!" He then told me to deposit a considerable amount of money to a trust fund so he can do "research" on my matter. I later solved the problem with another attorney and it turned that my problem was so simple that my attorney said " any lawyer knows this". I am NOT a lawyer but I did hear the judge say "The law is pretty clear about this". My advice is that you call different lawyers and talk to them and see if they "care about" your concerns. You can tell by talking with them. Why do I still rate 2 stars instead of 1? I talked to many attorneys, I have seen worse.
