Early Years
While in law school, Mr. Lewis was an avid competitor. As a member of the negotiations team, Mr. Lewis placed 2nd in the nation. Additionally, he was an integral member of the mock trial team, which he helped advance to the nationals.
Most notably, as a Rule 16 Assistant State's Attorney for Prince George's County, Maryland, Mr. Lewis polished his presentation of evidentiary arguments before the District Court of Maryland. This experience provided him with insight into the general practice of the courts and prosecuting attorneys. Prior to his term with the State's Attorney's office, Mr. Lewis clerked at a prestigious personal injury firm in Florida.
