Lydia took this case and talked a good game about this case being frivoulous, without merrit. When I expressed my concern about my ex she replied "you will not be scared again." During the case I received an offer to settle. I declined as, based on Lydia, I felt I had a superior position. Not an hour latter while the judge extends the csae, Lydia informs the court that she was going on sabitial in a month and would not be available. This was the first I heard of this. This clearly would have changed my opion concerning the proposed settlement. This borders on malpractice. Further, I never received billings from her to determine the status on my retainor. Also, she failed to stay in contact with me / address my concerns in the weeks leading up to the court date. Now I must find another attorney and start from scratch. I guess my only recource is to report her to the Bar.

Professional, experienced, reliable, excellent customer service, expedient, resourceful, friendly, honest, focused, caring, personable, delightful personality, and all around winner.

Ms Dews was very well prepared and represented me in such a way as to fulfill the demands of the court while saving me time and money. As a busy professional I relied on Ms Dews to advocate for me in a complex case. She did so admirably and I do not hesitate to recommend her.

I referred clients to Lydia for legal services and they were pleased with her professionalism, care and commitment. Lydia is dedicated to her clients.

I have known Lydia for a long time. Lydia is very dedicated, hardworking, and professional

I had a situation where I was in a custody battle with my son's mother. Not to say too much about her, but she was in a very bad place psychologically and physically due to her drug use. Ms Dews did not promise me the outcome that I wanted. Or give me false hope. But she made sure she did everything in her power to keep my son safe. And thats exactly what she did. I cannot express the gratitude in words. I see my son every morning I wake up and know that he is safe due to the actions on Ms Dews.

I have found Lydia to be very knowledgeable and thorough in her research and preparation. She was very fair and yet dedicated to the case. I had no trouble taking her advice. I would recommend her highly.

Lydia has represented and or provided legal consultation to me on a few legal matters from contract disputes to my current family law case. She has been very thorough and responsive to my emails and calls. I typically had a call back by the end of the day or the next. With her help I always knew what to expect and went to court prepared. I have been very pleased and happy to recommend Lydia Dews to several of my business and personal associates. She is well versed in the law and dedicated to helping her clients. She had to keep me from damaging my own case a few times, but always tactfully and professionally. She is one lawyer who cares more about making sure the children are first and that the parents and courts don't forget the rules of law. Integrity is the air that she breaths, I pray that I never need her family law services again, but if the need arises she will be the only attorney I will. CALL HER FIRST!

I can easily recommend Lydia as an attorney and ally. Lydia did an amazing job in a difficult circumstance. She was mediator, advisor, and friend. She sat through long hours of mediation, maintaining a calm, professional attitude. She helped walk through what could have been a very long, drawn out nightmare, making the outcome much more favorable than anticipated. I highly recommend her services.

Lydia Dews was recommended to me by a mutual friend, but she basically took my money. Did not file my divorce, did not respond to emails, phone calls, or even an attempt to contact her in person. I had to re-file with another attorney to get things taken care of.

I've used a couple of attorneys in my professional and personal life. Ms. Dews came in after another attorney and saved all of my separate property! She wasn't always at my beckon call, but neither was I. Two of my friends told me they had a good experience after I referred them to her as well. She seemed smart and no nonsense, not even from me.

I went in for a consultation. She said everything right and made me very confident she was a great lawyer. I gave her $1500 for a retainer fee and left her office feeling like I made the right choice. Not once since that day have I spoken to her. I left message after message and emails for a year straight. She accepted my case, my money and never did anything!
