Extraordinary defense attorney, worked a miracle

Lawrence was amazing in negotiating the release of my son and getting him the help he needs. He was so responsive, professional and competent. Lawrence went to the jail on Sunday and had my son home by Monday. It was truly a miracle. He had the right relationships, the right finesse and knowledge of... the law to convince the probation officer and judge to see the right thing to do. My son went right back to work and is on the path to success. Can't thank him enough!

The Lawyer That Saved My Life, More Than Once!

A friend of mine recommended LZ to me 5 years ago and I have been using him as my sole attorney ever since. With cases ranging from DUI and concealed weapon to aggravated assault, LZ has saved my life when the DA or my probation officer seemed determined to ruin it. Every time I have set a goal for h...im he has reached or exceeded it, and by doing so he has earned his pay and his reputation. Lawrence has kept me from going to prison more than once! Over the past 5 years I have used Lawrence 8 times. I have never been let down. When I talk to people about the work he has done for me and the outcomes of my cases a lot of folks can't believe what I am telling them. So I always encourage anybody that seems to be in doubt to give him a call and see for themselves. On top of the exceptional work that he does, LZ is friendly, down to earth, and easy to talk to. He has knowledge beyond his years. I always leave his office or hang up the phone feeling assured and refreshed, always knowing that I am in the best hands and I have nothing to worry about. To me, that kind of assurance is always worth what I'm paying. It is safe to say that I trust Lawrence with my life. At this point I can also say that we have developed a friendship, and LZ is definately someone you want to have your back when you need help! If you need help of any kind, do not hesitate to call him. You can't go wrong!

Performance review for the Law offices of Lawrence Zimmerman

Almost a year ago, I was charged with a felony (possession of illicit drugs) and my case was dismissed at the bond hearing. A year and a half later, when I was having a background check done for employment, I learned that the case had been reopened and that I had missed a court date (without my know...ledge) and therefore was convicted of this crime. The biggest issue I had with the entire situation was that I was never in possession of any illegal substance, no evidence was ever brought forth, and the police department pulled me over for no apparent reason and searched my car without my permission. They just decided they were going to arrest me and immediately took me to one of their "under-cover" facilities to try and scare me into "ratting-out" anyone that I might have possibly known with a drug connection. Too bad for them, I don't know anyone with a connection, and I wouldn't have told them squat even if I did. Really shotty, pathetic police work, again. Since this case had re-appeared without my knowledge, and because I was trying to get my name cleared so that I could take the Series 7, in order to obtain my general securities license, I needed this case taken care of as quickly as possible. With Lawrence's help, this case was dropped in a matter of a month and a half (and would have been even sooner if the court would've allowed us to have the case heard sooner) and I was allowed to continue on my career path unobstructed. Not only was he able to get the case dropped, and my good name cleared, but the charge will also be expunged from my record forever, meaning I will not ever have to explain this ridiculous situation ever again. During this whole process, Lawrence was readily available to take any calls and answer any questions that I had during this turbulant time. Needless to say, I was a nervous wreck, as my career was literally hanging by a thread, but Lawrence continually assured me that he would handle the case and that I shouldn't worry as he had multiple avenues in which to pursue this charge, and that he would get it thrown out. His confidence was unwavering, which was some relief, and I wanted to believe him, but in a situation that was this huge in scope, it was hard. Turns out, he was right, and I should have just relaxed and allowed him to work the system. I could not be any happier with the outcome of this situation, and I'm thankful that Lawrence was able to deliver on everything he said he would, and that he was able to do it in such an expediate manner. With everything behind me, I'm able to go back to my life without the worry of this felony ever rearing its ugly head again. The fact that the case was dropped and expunged is a testament to Lawrence's abilities as a legal councilor. I highly recommend his practice to all that are looking for a positive, expediant, outcome.

My association with Mr. Zimmerman

As my attorney,Mr.Zimmerman was straightforward and very available to me and my concerns at any time during my 13 months of being accused of a crime that never existed.It could'nt have been easy to have to be there on call for me as an attorney ,but Lawrence never failed to call me at any time of the... evening or any day of the week even sacrificing time with his own family to keep my own peace of mind.He never once wavered in his belief in my innocence and stood toe to toe with the prosecution when they offered a DEAL.Even when i thought i just didn't want any more and just wanted to quit he truly was my coach or drill instructor who motivated me to not give up.He truly took a personal interest in what my case had became and i could'nt have been more happy with our relationship as attorney and client,as a father he understood what was happening,he took it personal and never waiverd in his belief in my case.We won my case hands down with no resistance at all,and for that i thank him.I consider Lawrence more than just my attorney,he became a friend,and i would and will recommend him to anyone that would ever be in need of an attorney that surely will go the extra mile for a client,he really was there for me,Thanks Lawrence.
