Guy Lewis, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, is mentioned 16 times across the Epstein documents as one of Jeffrey Epstein's defense attorneys during the 2008 case that resulted in the controversial plea deal.
Lewis appears primarily in court documents, email attachments, and government records discussing Epstein's legal team. He is consistently listed among Epstein's "heavy-hitting lawyers" alongside Alan Dershowitz, Kenneth Starr, Gerald Lefcourt, Roy Black, and Jack Goldberger. Multiple documents reference him as a former U.S. Attorney who was hired to represent Epstein, with his law firm Lewis Tein handling various court filings. One email from February 2008 shows a woman expressing concern about the case directly to Lewis. An investigative document (EFTA00009329) mentions his "close friendship" with Mike Tein, another Epstein attorney, raising questions about potential conflicts of interest in the case supervision.
