About Lewis
Lewis Small is an attorney admitted to practice in Pennsylvania. He works in the state’s legal environment and represents individuals and organizations in matters that arise under Pennsylvania law. His professional life is rooted in the everyday work of a state bar lawyer: courtroom appearances, client conferences, document drafting and the steady stream of procedural tasks that shape outcomes.
Small’s path to practice has involved the kinds of training and early assignments that prepare a lawyer for work in both trial and transactional settings. He has spent time inside courtrooms and conference rooms. That range of experience has kept him engaged with the mechanics of state practice — filing deadlines, local rules, evidentiary hearings and negotiations — all of which can determine whether a case moves forward or stalls.
Throughout his career he has handled matters that require attention to Pennsylvania’s statutes and case law. That includes contested matters in court and non-litigation work that touches on regulatory and business concerns. He has represented clients before judges and administrative bodies, and he has worked with opposing counsel to shape settlements and resolutions when circumstances allow.
Colleagues describe Small as methodical in preparation. He breaks complex problems into elements that can be addressed one by one. That approach serves clients who need clear options rather than open-ended promises. In hearings he tends to be direct and precise. In client meetings he focuses on practical paths to resolve disputes or move transactions to the finish line.
Small keeps current on developments in Pennsylvania law. He follows decisions from state appellate courts and provincial practice changes that affect filing requirements and courtroom procedures. That attention helps when deadlines shift or when new rules change how cases are litigated. It also helps in advising clients about realistic timelines and likely outcomes.
Outside of formal advocacy he has participated in routine professional activities that sustain a practice: drafting pleadings, negotiating agreements, responding to regulatory inquiries and counseling clients on compliance. Those day-to-day tasks form the bulk of his practice and inform how he prepares for more contested matters.
As of 2026 he practices law in Pennsylvania, handling matters that arise under state law.
