James Bruce Lewis

Aug 2013, the worst experience in my life. Police officers showed how they are capable of abusing their authority. This is what happened to me. I was pulled over for an illegal turn (no sign there at the time) by the waterpark on my way to Zippys. It was a common turn most people including officers u...sed. The officer who initially pulled me over was upset I turned in to the Zippys parking lot. He then told me he smelled alcohol on my breath & called an army of police to assist. In shock, I didn't understand what was going on at that point. Another officer abruptly came to me, asked me if I would take a breathalyzer test, I said no in confusion & he said I was under arrest. Before I knew it, I was in handcuffs & on my way to Kapolei police station. What was an illegal turn stop, turned into a DUI charge. At the station, the DUI officer & female officer dropped a form in front of me & quickly said "sign here, here & here" I didn't understand the form tried to read it & I asked them "What if I don't sign it?" & the officer said, "then you're going to jail", I was shocked. All I could think about was my kids, I have to be home for them. I signed the form (coercion). I took the breathalyzer twice & was transported to Pearl City station by the same DUI officer to do a blood test. Got to Pearl City, sat quietly & waited in cuffs & no slippers. Asked to use the restroom, was refused. Asked a third time & he finally let me go with cuffs on. The officer felt I was taking too long, he tried opening the door while I was trying to pull up my pants with cuffs on behind my back. I slammed the door with my body & told him "you try going with handcuffs on." I felt violated. On our way back to Kapolei station, the DUI officer made the same illegal turn by the waterpark that I did & got pulled over for. I couldn't believe it. Then I sat in a cell waiting for my mom to bail me out. The same officers lied at my revocation hearing saying I was belligerent & couldn't stand up straight. Yet, during that whole experience, I was in shock & could barely speak or move. I wasn't drunk, belligerent, disruptive or disrespectful. I was in utter shock & disbelief. I listened & did everything watoltdododododo. I believe in doing good & owning up to my mistakes. However, no one deserves to be mistreated no matter what the reason. Police Officers don't have the right to abuse their authority & MISTREAT & LIE about others, it's wrong!!!!!! I found info about attorney James Lewis online. I called him, told him my situation & he assured me he could help me. He made me feel comfortable & stopped me from worrying about the worst. I trusted him and my DUI case was finally dismissed!!! I'm thankful & blessed.

I was charged with a DUI in July 2015. It was my first DUI and I did not know what to do feeling like everything was a nightmare. All I knew was that it was best that I hire an attorney ASAP after talking to people that was charged with DUI before. I searched for DUI attorneys online and made ca...lls. James was the first attorney to call me back out of all the calls that I made. He was very professional and yet comfortable to talk to and calmed me down over the phone as I was in a panic with my DUI situation. Upon meeting James in person for consultation, I knew right away he would be able to help me to the best he could no matter what the result may be. He was very patient and listened to what happened on the night I was charged with DUI. James explained to me the process that we would have to go through step by step, and answered any questions that I had. Then reassured me that it will be alright and to take a deep breath. He is very knowledgeable of the DUI laws and Hawaii state laws. Intelligent, respectful and trustworthy. Throughout the entire time, he kept me informed and answered to all of my questions via emails and calls regarding my case. My biggest concern was the criminal side charge. After 7 months, my DUI case was dismissed! Thank you so much James!!! You literally took the heavy weight off my shoulders from a very stressful situation. You understood my situation that I was in, you were very professional and I am so glad that I hired you as my attorney!!! I highly recommend attorney James Lewis for DUI cases.

Wow I can not thank you enough James. I had a really good vibe when I met you. Your a true pro James. You saved me from some major headaches for sure. Like anything else James you get what you pay for. And you hit it out of the park. If your ever in the position I was. An Expert Dui Attorney is a ...MUST. And James is all that & then some. Thanks a Million James.

I'm a Florida resident who was working in Hawaii. I got pulled over for a DUI after going through a speed zone. I was so distraught upon my return to Florida, I had no idea who to call or trust with this extremely sensitive situation. I needed my license to continue working in Florida. After much del...iberation, I called Mr. Lewis who immediately made me feel at ease. He came across as competent and genuine. We decided to fight the criminal case based on the implications of losing my job. I knew I would have to return to Hawaii, on my own dime, to appear in court. One of my biggest concerns was that I would have to appear multiple times. On the day of the trial Mr. Lewis was the best dressed and most professional looking attorney at the court house. He was able to get my case DISMISSED without returning to Hawaii!! I thank God for His grace and for leading me to a true expert of the law. Thank you Mr. Lewis!!

I got my DUI Oct 2015 I was 23 years old,, thinking oh man I did it now, this was my 1st DUI ever and if you know DUIs they can ruin lives. Being that I'm in the operators union I thought I lost my job. That's when my sister did some research and found James online he was highly recommend so I contac...ted him. And from there on out it was a lot less stressful James took care of everything. Told me not to worry, got me a temporary permit to drive to and from work, handle all the courts affairs dealing with the civil side of my case and WON getting my license back. Now criminal side of my case the arresting officer showed up testify against me, its was a hard case cause of some of the statements I made when the officer pulled me over. James still manage to get me off the hook, found NOT GUILTY. James is the man I would recommend him to any of my friends or anyone in need of a lawyer for a DUI
