Lutwin & Lutwin

I am Erik B. Lutwin, an attorney dedicated to providing personalized legal guidance and unwavering representation to individuals and businesses. Over two decades of experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of the law and a proven track record of success in a diverse range of practice areas. My commitment to my clients is rooted in clear communication, meticulous attention to detail, and a genuine desire to achieve the best possible outcome for their unique circumstances.

My legal career began with a mentor who had over 50 years of experience. Learning from my father, Joel Lutwin, who was my partner until his passing in 2017, instilled in me the importance of honesty, integrity, and a proactive approach to client service. Joining his practice exposed me to a breadth of legal issues, from personal injury and family law to commercial litigation and estate planning. I developed a particular expertise in representing individuals in personal injury cases, including those involving motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, and medical malpractice. I also became adept at navigating the complex world of police misconduct litigation, fighting for the rights of individuals who have been unjustly treated by law enforcement.

In addition to these core areas, I have a strong foundation in wills and trusts, divorce proceedings, and general commercial litigation. I have represented both large corporations and small businesses, including innovative startups in the film and fashion industries. This diverse experience has given me a unique perspective and the ability to tailor my legal strategies to the specific needs of each client.
