Dratel & Lewis is an internationally recognized, full-service law firm. Established in 1996, with 60 years of combined experience, the firm has built a reputation for excellence in federal and New York State cases, including trial and appellate representation in criminal defense and civil litigation, as well as in extradition matters.
Our firm is comprised of a team of exceptionally talented lawyers dedicated to the vigorous and effective representation of our clients. By specializing in meeting the needs of our clients, whether individuals or institutions, the firm has received national and international recognition for landmark criminal cases, successful representation of high-profile clients, and outstanding defense in cases ranging from business and cyber/computer crime, national security, terrorism and drug-related accusations, sex offenses, extradition matters both to and from the U.S., capital crimes and civil litigation.
Many of the firm’s groundbreaking achievements have received extensive media coverage and inclusion in books and related literature. Conversely, some of the firm’s most effective work flies under the radar, as it involves helping clients avoid criminal charges or lawsuits altogether and/or erasing any trace of a prior legal entanglement, even when charges have been initiated or an arrest has been made. The firm has also been involved in litigation in several countries, and has a wide variety of legal and other international contacts in order to provide our clients with the best resources in an increasingly globalized legal environment.
Dratel & Lewis’s mission is to defend the rights of each and every client, no matter what his or her legal challenge or need may be. Contact the firm for more information or for a free consultation regarding your case.
