James Bruce Lewis

Our teenage son thought he was back in Arizona and was lead-footing down H-1 near Waikikii at 84 mph. He was looking at a hefty fine until James came to the rescue! Super work getting it reduced to a simple speeding ... and gave us a military discount as well! Super job by a super attorney!! Thanks... so much, James!

I got arrested under suspicion of DUI in downtown Honolulu. The whole process was a stressful and expensive life experience. I talked to a few local attorneys and someone suggested James. I met with him and had a frank discussion on what happened and what I could expect in the coming months. His fees... were in-line with some of the other attorneys. Not cheap but not outrageous, and you don’t necessarily want lowest price for something like this. Either way, I hired him as my attorney. He was well prepared the majority of the time and was very responsive. To make a year long story short. We had our ADLRO hearing and I had my license back within a week, no machine or defensive driving classes. Months of delay went on but we did our court time and ended up with my DUI being dismissed. Thanks James.

I remember how stressful the process of selecting a lawyer was after being arrested for a DUI. Some offices I had to leave a message or make an appointment with the secretary. When I called James he answered himself, asked relevant questions, and overall left me feeling much better about the situati...on. After a brief meeting in person I knew I would want him representing me in court and that he'd offer the best defense possible against not only the DUI but speeding and reckless driving as well. James never made me feel pressured and only offered useful advice. My case became very drawn out due to how the court works and I had to go in five times, sometimes only to reschedule as they ran out of time. James was always there and he always kept me informed as to whether my case would actually be dealt with, where we were in the case, and allowed me to make strategic decisions based on his explanations. James was well known and well respected in the courtroom from my experiences there and I was always happy and felt relaxed that he was representing me. James immediately got my excessive speeding charge reduced to a traffic fine and we were debating the merits of taking the deal for the reckless charges depending on how the officer presented my driving. He also felt we could make a strong case against the DUI charges. So I was in pretty good shape even though I felt pretty rough when it first happened. However things ended even better than expected as after almost a 13 month wait James was able to get all charges dismissed with prejudice. All while I had moved away from Hawaii in the last two months to pursue a graduate program. So everything was dismissed and I never had to come back for a court date. I will always be grateful for James and how he helped me.
