Amazing lawyer, gave me my life back...

I hired Mr. Zimmerman after reading about his qualifications and his experience. I was charged with theft by deception and was given 30 years of probation. Mr. Zimmerman was able to reassure me that being patient would pay off and it did. After researching my case and meeting with the ADA he was abl...e to get my probation terminated after 8 yrs. He always answered my calls and returned my emails. If you are looking for someone who is a professional and who cares Mr. Zimmerman is your guy. It's only been a week but because of Mr. Zimmerman I now have my life back. Words could never express my gratitude for your help. THANK YOU!!

The man, The myth, The legend!

I hired Mr.Zimmerman after reading about his qualifications and his experience in federal court. I was charged with possession of a fully automatic machine gun and a short barreled rifle and was looking at some serious time. Mr.Zimmerman was able to get me with just 13 months minimum security camp an...d three years probation. The prosecutor wanted to give me 36 months! Not only is he an awesome lawyer but also a good friend. He generally cares about his clients and was there to talk with me with whatever issue I had, not just legal. If you want a lawyer who's one on one with you, return your phone calls, keep you updated on a daily basis this is the guy. Not only is Mr.Zimmerman an awesome person, his staff is also very professional and respectable. If i ever needed legal help again, I would choose Mr.Zimmerman without giving it a seconds thought

Outstanding Lawyer

I am a summer camp counselor and a child bit me and at first she said she bit me because she lost the game. Then the camp got a call from her mother saying that I touched her inappropriately. I had a meeting with DFCS and I didn't hear any news of the case until a month later until two detectives s...howed up at my front door asking for my side of the story. My family and I decided to get a lawyer before talking to the detectives. Thats when we had a meeting with Lawrence Zimmerman and JT Summers. I told them my story and they both believed me immediately. When the meeting was over I knew I was in great hands. JT was the investigator and he got all of the details from everyone and he was excellent. Lawrence decided I should take a Polygraph test just in case. I took the Polygraph test and I passed. Lawrence talked to the detectives to find out if they are arresting me or just want to talk. He decided that we should have the meeting with the police. The day before the meeting JT and Lawrence asked me questions just how the detectives would so I am prepared. I had a meeting with the detective and Lawrence was in the room next to me. She just asked me questions about if I was ever alone with her and just wanted to here my side of the story. I found out that day that the case was dropped and I was innocent and the detective said all of the stories lined up. This false accusation that this child made could have ruined my life. I loved working with kids. Now I will never work with kids again. Lawrence is outstanding. He cared and believed that I was innocent. Getting Lawrence was the best decision my family and I made. Thank you again Lawrence for everything.

Incredibly happy with the outcome.

I am very happy with having hired Mr Zimmerman. I had a complex case that he was able to negotiate pre trial to a plea that I could not have imagined. Everyone's case is different but he was able to consistently keep me abreast of the communication between him and the prosecutor. That being said, be...ing able to have a professional relationship with the Prosecutor's Office instead of adversarial one speaks to his ability to reach the most favorable outcome to his clients. He was able to make a payment scheduled that truly worked with my budget which was a huge relief. Given the personal stress I was under I almost took a plea that was night and day to what was finally down on paper. He counseled me and I am glad I took his advice. He understood the pressure I was under and cooled me down from accepting a bad offer. After you hire him, listen to his expert opinion. You are not fighting the State alone. Email was the most efficient way to keep in touch. He will make time for you.

Thank you! It was a huge and well known case that was resolved without any fanfare and you now don't have anything on your record. It was an honor and a privilege to represent you. I wish you the best in life!
