About Richard K. Lewis Divorce Attorney

I never liked the way many law firms charge thousands of dollars no matter how simple the matter is. I never liked the fact that at many large firms, a client often never speaks to the same lawyer twice, and often has a lawyer or paralegal who is not familiar with his or her case during important aspects of it. I never liked the way people often have difficulty simply getting in contact with their lawyer and can only speak with the secretary. Those are common complaints about many of the "best" and larger firms. This is not me. I like to handle the case myself. I usually answer my own phone and am able to be easily reached. If someone leaves their name and phone number, I call them back. I am honest, provide individual attention and keep my promises. These are the things I take seriously and take pride in.

I have chosen to specialize in doing relatively simple uncontested divorces and doing them well and relatively fast. Because I have gained experience doing thousands of such cases during my 30 years of experience, I do such cases better than many firms which charge thousands more. This is discussed more in the section entitled "Divorce Matters." Although I do other kinds of cases as well. If you do have a simple uncontested divorce, I really will do it for the lowest legal fee I believe possible.

I am familiar with other legal matters and can give advice about other matters. I can discuss how other issues (i.e. immigration law) may be effected by or interact with divorce law. I do speak Spanish as well, although it's not my first language.

I was admitted to the NYS Bar in June 1983 and to the Federal Bar in February 1984. There is a picture of me at my Facebook ad at Richard K. Lewis Divorce Attorney or if you Google my phone number (718) 680-7090.

My office hours are a little different each week though usually I am in my office Monday to Thursday from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm, Friday 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm and Saturdays 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. If you call when no one is in, the answering machine will give you my schedule for that week. I often can stay late or arrive early to accommodate clients by appointment.
