Not for me

I went to see him recently. He is not good for Criminal Case because his expertise is in Civil Right Law, not in Criminal Defense Law. But, he will never tell you this. He will trick you to pay very first minute you get there. He does not answer directly. He has little knowledge about Internet Infest...ed Legal Complications, i.e texting in various apps etc. I would not recommend anyone who chase Criminal Case. He does not care about you. He is into money and that is about it. Do not go to see him unless you want to give him free $1500 for 5 minutes talk in his office.

excellent criminal lawyer

Peter lawton in my opinion is an excellent criminal defense attorney. Peter is a very knowledgeable, well rounded, understandable, and down to earth attorney. Peter in one of many cases battled for me and as a result got 2 subsequent class A possession cases dismissed. Aside from all that he has bee...n in the game for a long time so he is well known and also knows a lot of people. Peter has helped me out with varias criminal matters and has always excelled beyond my expectations. I would recommend Peter J Lawton to anyone an everyone with a criminal matter.
