Great Recommendation!

I have had two recent cases that Mr. Lawrence handled. Both times he handled each case with professionalism and accuracy. He kept on top of the case and spoke directly to the State's Attorney. In each case, my case was resolved prior to court and in my favor. What a relief! Its nice to know that... Mr. Lawrence is there to help and does such an outstanding job!

TERRIBLE SERVICE

hired Mr Lawrence for a criminal case for my husband.. he misled up on what his game plan was... he asked us to pay the retainer and he would get started... never did... come time for court and he was due to enter his appearance he never showed up.. claimed he was in an automobile accident by never... notified the court as he said he would... luckily things worked out and the case was postponed... afterwards when we fired him he would not return my calls to give us our money back... he did nothing to earn the grand he was given.. and now will not return any calls to settle this matter... PLEASE DO NOT SET YOURSELF FOR FAILURE

very good

Mr Lawrence was easy going with me, but fought hard when the time came. I recommend him to anybody. Affordable and responsive. He got a assault charge aganst me dropped, and help me get back my visitation. He is also Very honest and real person.

K.B.O.

Mr. Lawrence handled my divorce for like half of what other firms want to charge me. He got the job done quickly too. He has a way of putting you at ease in hectic situations too. My husbabd tried to falsely accuse me of assault, and Mr. Lawrence got both cases thrown out. Great lawyer.
