We train lawyers to pass tests, not to serve people.
We reward aggression over integrity.
We normalize dysfunction.
I live at the center of high-stakes litigation. I’ve tried cases to verdict on both sides of the aisle—civil and criminal, in the United States and the United Kingdom.
From elite global firms to co-founding my own boutique powerhouse.
I know the courtroom. I know how to win. And I know what’s worth fighting for.
That’s why I’m proposing something new.
Why?
Because law doesn’t just shape lawyers. It shapes our businesses, our families, our communities, and our culture.
Reforming this profession isn’t just about the people inside it. It’s about the impact it has on all of us.
At Lewis & Llewellyn, we’re building a firm where excellence and humanity coexist.
Where elite legal strategy meets real culture. Where clients get concierge-level care and rising lawyers don’t have to live in a state of constant burnout.
As an award-winning litigator, author, and founder ready to reform law as we know it, I’m here to prove that you can practice law at the highest level - and still practice it right.

This is the book I wish I’d had at the start of my career. It’s a candid look at why the legal profession is stuck and how to free it to work better for everyone it touches. Unshackled is a call to action for lawyers and future lawyers who want to elevate the profession, improve their own well-being, and deliver better results for those they serve.
“I found this book to be an insightful take on an industry that is in desperate need of a refresh. The author obviously has a deep understanding of the legal industry but approaches it through a new lens. He raises issues and ideas I had never thought of, which I think will help me in my own law practice. Not only that, but it’s a fun and interesting read. Highly recommend!”
From BigLaw to bet the company litigation, to cases addressing sexual abuse, I’ve seen law from many angles. Those experiences taught me that law isn’t just a career – it’s a force that shapes lives for all. Now, I’m focused on helping the profession evolve into something less toxic and more human.
Over the past several years, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my passion for the evolution of law with audiences around the world. I’ve been featured on NBC, ABC, CBS, and FOX, and have spoken on stages at places like the Practising Law Institute, University of Oxford, and University College Dublin. If you’re looking for a candid, thought-provoking voice on the legal profession, leadership, and reform, I’d love to be part of the conversation.
As a premier boutique law firm, we combine the quality and rigor of a large firm with the 5-star service of a smaller one.
I co-founded Lewis & Llewellyn to practice law differently. As a premier boutique firm, we combine the quality and rigor of a large firm with the 5-star service of a boutique. Our culture values people as much as results. We take on high-stakes disputes on both the plaintiff and defense side, driven not by billable hours but by sharp strategy and the commitment to win.
If what I’m saying resonates, I’d love to connect.
The only way the legal system changes is when we advocate for it. If you want to be part of that movement, let’s start now.
