About Attorney Richard Lewins
Before becoming an attorney, Richard Lewins worked for such firms as EF Hutton, Merrill Lynch, Shearson Lehman and HD Vest. His positions included Financial Advisor, Regional Marketing Manager and Regional Sales Manager. While he enjoyed a successful career, he recognized conduct and systems that were inconsistent with putting the best interest of the client ahead of the best interest of the firm.
Mr. Lewins also noted that there were not many places an investor could turn to for experienced and knowledgeable help. After all, how many attorneys had the brokerage experience and insight necessary to recognize when the game was not being played above board? This motivated him to leave the brokerage business and put himself through law school and founding his Dallas firm, LewinsLaw, P.C..
