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

More than just an Attorney

There are not enough kind words to say about this man. I was introduced to Mr. Zimmerman when my entire world had literally fallen apart. He not only provided me with sound and important legal counsel, but he also made sure that I was supported emotionally. This is a man who cares. In my particul...ar situation, and many thanks to Mr. Zimmerman, I was never charge with a crime. He was able to prevent my world from crashing down even further. I owe alot to this man and nothing could ever re-pay him for the difference he made in my case and more importantly in my life. He is definitely more than just an attorney!

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.

Helped get my life back while against difficult odds

When the unfounded charges of child molestation and sexual battery were setting me up for doomed trial, and possible years in prison, I felt like my public and professional life was over. The effect of the charges' public nature were like a red letter brazened on my back, visible on the internet a...nd known to anyone in my social circles who might have heard of my situation. Wherever I went, whether it was job-hunting, church, or even social gatherings among peers, I wondered if those around me had seen the red letter (my charges), and if I had to explain my situation to every one of them. It was exhausting, and I was losing friendships while waiting for my nightmarish future to pan out. Lawrence took my case and worked tirelessly in the background, and in the end, helped to do the seemingly impossible: not only protect me from unfair sentencing and imprisonment, but help me keep my life as well. Together with his investigator JT Summers, and the rest of his great team, Lawrence helped me plea to a misdemeanor and I was dismissed on misdemeanor probation (rather than felony probation), with full expunging after the probation period ended. Because of his (and his team's) diligence and success, he gets top marks from me. Highly recommended.

Lawrence Zimmerman is absolutely amazing!

I hired Lawrence Zimmerman at the worst time in my life. I have no idea how he was able to get the results he did but I am so very grateful. I have my family and my freedom and no criminal record. I am very happy with my decision to hire this amazing lawyer. I hope each and every one of you who hire ...him have the same results!
