Lewis practises in all areas of family law but has particular experience in matrimonial finance, including property, pension and family business issues. His skill at turning amicable agreements into binding settlements without damaging what can be a fragile peace between separating people is recognised by his colleagues as a particular strength. He also has experience of trans-national finance, multi-jurisdictional divorce and children cases. Lewis also advises on TOLATA claims between unmarried couples which can run alongside Schedule 1 proceedings when there are children. Lewis recognises that the “traditional” solicitor-client relationship of full representation does not suit all. Unlike some other solicitors, Lewis is willing to accept a limited retainer and with his considerable experience can just “do what is actually needed”. In the Legal 500, Lewis is listed as being known for being straight-talking, extremely perceptive and principled in his approach towards family law.
