Tenacious, Knowledgeable, Imperturbable

I recommend Lawrence in all capacities. Lawrence's unwavering confidence helped propel me through one of the most difficult and embarrassing times of my life. You truly feel like you have a friend in a world against you. I was recently charged with a DUI, and as a young professional with hig...her aspirations, I felt my world crashing around me. I was overwhelmed with a huge sense of guilt for my two young children and my career and how it might affect my family. When meeting with Lawrence, for the first time, he quickly put my mind at ease, with his confidence and knowledge of Law. He was very specific in his instructions, explanations, background examination, and answered all my questions, as I had never experienced anything like this before. I was very impressed with his openness to communicate. His follow-through was impeccable. He always responded within minutes. And always encouraging me to ask more questions to ensure I understood every situation, knowing this was unfamiliar territory for me. Lawrence is a fighter. He often pushed the limits in difficult circumstances. He is not afraid and will not back down as he demonstrated in my case, to ensure I was getting the most fair judgement. As a result of Lawrence's tenacity, while being charged with a DUI, he successfully had it dropped to reckless driving with no contingencies. I would also be remiss if I did not mention the employees of his staff. They too are fantastic communicators and extremely compassionate.

Lawrence Zimmerman was an excellent choice!

Recently I had a need for a top defense attorney to avoid receiving my 2nd DUI within 10 years. Lawrence worked diligently on my case, successfully motioned to suppress some of the state's key evidence, treated me with dignity and respect and put my mind at ease through the whole process. The outco...me of the case was very satisfactory and he saved my career and reputation. I would recommend Lawrence to any of my family or friends or to anyone for that matter. Put your trust in one of the Southeast's premier defense attorneys and hire Lawrence Zimmerman as your counsel today!

6 felonies in 2 different counties

Lawrence is the best lawyer that I have been dealing with for the last 7 years. I was referred to Lawrence by my brother and father. In Jan 2011 I was arrested on 6 felony counts in 2 counties. My case was resolved in 8 months. Lawrence is a very knowledge and resourceful lawyer. Every email, phone c...all, and meeting with Lawrence and his office was assuring and positive that my case was being handled with my best interest. In the end of my story Lawrence gave me results I wanted. Hire Lawrence or " what if " will be stuck in the back of your mind.

Thank you for your kind words. And, in this case, we were able to resolve the charges in one county successfully, then file a plea in bar of double jeopardy in another county and have those felony charges dismissed.

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!

Lawrence is the reason I get to see my daughter more than 6 days a month.

Even though he had a heavy workload, Lawrence took on a weak contempt case against my ex wife. This was a "Hail Mary Pass" to get more visitation of my 7 year old daughter. It would be impossible to describe how he did it, but here's the short version. In October 2007 my ex and I split. When she left... is ripped my whole world apart and took my baby girl with her. 3 years, 10 months and at least 5 previous attorney's, Lawrence pull out my first real victory and got me 50/50 visitation and no child support. If you were to ask me how he did it, I would simply say "He is smart and great with people". Thank you Lawrence, being a great father you know what this means to me.
