ANDREA A. LEWIS has dedicated her career to seeking justice on behalf of those who have been wronged. She represents clients harmed by careless drivers, defective products, harmful prescription drugs, and negligent health care providers.
Mrs. Lewis is an experienced trial attorney with a track record of success. She was recently named one of The Best Lawyers in America in the field of personal injury. She has prevailed in numerous jury trials involving medical malpractice, products liability, business disputes, and car accidents. Recently, Andrea was part of a trial team that was awarded more than $8.5 million in damages for a woman who was forced to undergo an above-the-knee amputation due to the negligence of her physician and concierge medical care plan.
Before joining Searcy Denney, Mrs. Lewis was a prosecutor with the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office, where she fought to protect our local citizens who had been the victims of serious crimes. She conducted over 75 jury trials, prosecuting murderers, rapists, sexual predators, armed robbers, and gang members, including many high profile matters. In 2013, one of her cases made national headlines after she prosecuted-and successfully convicted-a woman who masterminded a multi-million dollar extortion plot.
Mrs. Lewis was previously named the Young Lawyer of the Year by the Palm Beach County Bar Association. She has also been recognized by The National Trial Lawyers as Top 40 under 40 - an honor extended solely to the most qualified plaintiffs' attorneys from each state who demonstrate superior qualifications.
