Gayle R. Lewis, Esquire
Founder
My law
office offers a unique medical negligence practice
with focus on Pennsylvania and New Jersey cases.
I voluntarily limit the number of cases I litigate
at any one point in time. This allows me to provide
all of my clients with the maximum personal attention
and dedicated effort they each deserve.
During the past 25 years, I have developed the necessary legal skills, as well
as, a dedicated team of qualified support staff. We also have long standing relationships
with well-respected medical experts. As a result, my practice possesses the necessary
resources and time to remain properly dedicated to your case.
I received my J.D. in 1974 from Rutgers University School of Law. I was Deputy
Administrator of Pennsylvania's Arbitration Panels for Health Care. I have also
been Special Assistant to Pennsylvania's Insurance Commissioner and an Assistant
Attorney General with the Department of Justice in Harrisburg, PA. I have been
a frequent lecturer and author of several published articles. Since 1991, I have
been a Judge Pro Tempore for the First Judicial District, Philadelphia, PA, attempting
to negotiate civil matters prior to trial.
I am listed in Who's Who of American Women, 14th edition, and have been a co-host
of a consumer public affairs radio program, WIBF Law Talk. I've been on the Board
of Directors of the Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association and have been a member
of the American, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Atlantic County and New Jersey Bar
Association; Pennsylvania and Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association; Women Attorneys
of New Jersey; National Association of Women in the Law; and the Women's Health
Alliance.
