Our Team

Lewis Farmer,  Managing Attorney

Lewis has moved around the coun­try, liv­ing in Texas, Geor­gia, Ohio, Cal­i­for­nia and Ore­gon. After grad­u­at­ing from Pitzer Col­lege in Clare­mont, Cal­i­for­nia, Lewis got his first job at a law firm as an Office Assis­tant. It was work­ing there that he decid­ed to go to law school and enrolled at Lewis and Clark Law School in Port­land, Ore­gon. After grad­u­at­ing there, he took some time as a Para­le­gal before sit­ting for the bar exam and pass­ing on his first attempt, years out of law school, while work­ing full time and plan­ning his wedding.

Lewis is most expe­ri­enced in fam­i­ly law mat­ters, landlord/tenant mat­ters, estate admin­is­tra­tion, and real estate trans­ac­tions and disputes.
