Ben is a great guy, which makes him an exceptional lawyer. Our family selected him to help us is a custody case. He is knowledgeable, straightforward and works for your best interest, rather than his own. Thank you Ben!

I highly recommend Benjamin Lewis for any real estate contracts you need to have reviewed. He saved us a huge amount of money on a recent contract. And was able to meet with us late on a Friday.
We will always have his number in our back pocket!

My wife and I chose McCarter/East to help us with an important legal matter. I'm so glad we did. I was very impressed with how thorough and professional the experience was.
Mr. East took his time to help us navigate the situation which allowed us to make well informed choices. He explained the legalities as if he were a teacher by making sure we understood everything as we progressed and stopping frequently to see if we had questions. We weren't rushed and felt well informed.
Mr. East was also proactive by identifying things that my wife and I didn't think of. He went above and beyond with his

Ben Lewis is top notch. I presented a time-sensitive case during a brief phone consult. He had the relevant statutes pulled up and was able to make a determination on how to proceed in just a few minutes, and offered to follow-up as needed. I want someone this detail-oriented in my corner.

Thankful doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel about Benjamin Lewis and McCarter East. Ben did an outstanding job on our case. He always made it a point to make sure we understood what was going on and kept us constantly updated. He made the process less stressful and was always so patient with us. We never felt rushed during our phone calls or meetings. His assistant, Ashlie, is so great and quick to reply to emails or calls. We never felt out of the loop. They make a great team. If your looking for a team that actually cares about you and your case then I cannot recommend Benjamin Lewis

Ben Lewis is a great lawyer. I could not have picked a better attorney to represent me in my custody case. He is straight forward, honest, and responsive. He is very fair as well with his fees and cost. I’m grateful I chose him as my attorney. I highly recommend him. He will work hard and fight for you in any case you have with him. I can not recommend him enough.
