Marc Lewin worked for an accounting firm and a local law firm before deciding it was time to hang his own shingle.
“I didn’t want to wait for my ship to come in, so I swam out to it,” he said.
Lewin, who always wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps as a business owner, opened the Providence-based law practice Lucidate in March. The firm specializes in business and tax law, with a focus on family-owned businesses, high net worth individuals, startups and nonprofit organizations.
The practice, which is hiring attorneys, is a cloud-supported law firm, meaning all its documents are stored on the cloud, allowing clients to see billing information and track the progress of their cases.
Lucidate’s flat-fee and subscription billing options also give clients more control over their legal budget.
In the end, it’s all about customer service.
“There’s a lot of negativity in the world, so how you approach the work and put a smile on your face when you’re speaking with someone is really important,” he said.
Lewin holds a Juris Doctor from the John Marshall Law School and a taxation law degree from Georgetown University Law Center.
