Rest Assured

I had a huge legal mess that was dumped on my lap. I'm just a regular blue collar law abiding citizen that got caught up in a contract I didn't understand. The other company was being ruthless and unreasonable. I settled out of court over a civil breach of contract. I also got criminal charges dr...opped from another matter due to Mr. Lauer's efforts. Funny how a lie and lack of evidence can start a snow ball effect to destroy a good man's name and life. I was 100% confused and over whelmed with all the legal jargon and steps that needed to be taken. I even had court dates all mixed up as well. Mr. Lauer took the necessary steps to be patient with me and explain it all in elementary terms. The out come in both matters have been settled so I can go on about my life.

Excellent. Can't ask for better job

My ex filed for custody. From the first counseling we both were agreed on 50/50 plan. I dropped my child off at his residence on the following day and we got in fight over our child at his residence on the same day. As I was assaulted, I called 911 but things got dramatically changed. I was arrested ...and ended up in jail for aggravated assault for 24 hours. As soon as I was released on bail, I started looking for a criminal attorney. I hired Mr. Lauer. The criminal case was dismissed. The criminal charges were expunged. Mr. Lauer helped me with PFA and I was granted against that “monster”. After that he worked hard to study my custody case. He helped me to understand the most important parts of the custody procedures. Basically, he walked me through. We were at the trial and he did brilliant job. I would highly recommend Mr. Lauer.

Very pleased

My husband and I rescently hired Mr. Lauer to represent our son. I was a complete wreck after my son was arrested, and a girlfriend of mine recommended Mr. Lauer to us and we couldn't be happier with the results. He is very professional, and really knows his stuff. As far as the cost, you get what... you pay for, as with anything in this world. I would never go to anyone else. I highly recommend Mr. Lauer.

Plead me out of bad situation

Went to him about fake id usage charges and was screwed but got only a disorderly and 30 hrs instead of 6 month license suspension very satisfied and a very cool guy

Did his job incredibly well!!!!

Attorney Lauer, who I have known personally for several years did an incredible job of explaining the pending charges to my son and helping us obtain a favorable judgment...even when it didn't seem likely. His knowledge of the law combined with his ingenuity to "think outside the box" proved extreme...ly beneficial.
