Mike

Great Attorney, unbelievable patience, genuine concern for client & family. Lawrence was not just an attorney , he was a caring person who always wanted what was best for his client. The outcome that he was able to negotiate with the prosecutor and judge is probably responsible for saving my son's li...fe. Thank you very much Lawrence.

Lawrence Zimmerman helped me win a Nolle Prosse Dismissal on my Forgery Charges

In April of 2012 my husband and I (self-employed professionals) were arrested on criminal charges of first degree forgery. We had helped a friend when he came to our office with a document, asking that we only witness his signature. Unfortunately, the document was fraudulent. Being arrested, espec...ially when you know you are innocent, is not just frightening - it shakes your trust in what you think is right in the world, in justice and in the legal system. Finding Lawrence Zimmerman to represent me in this nightmare was the first step toward restoring my faith in the belief that our system does work. Having that first person in the legal/judicial system stand up for YOU is a powerful moment. It has taken almost 18 months to have the charges against me (and my husband) dismissed by the DA's office Nolle Prosse. I have Lawrence to thank for that. During those 18 months Lawrence was there for me. He was a sounding board, a source for factual information, a bulwark between myself and a legal system that seemed to have gone haywire. He was my advocate and became my friend. My husband is a doctor. I now know what his patients feel when they come to him for advice and expertise on a course of action to help ensure their health. Lawrence filled a similar position for me. He was the expert. I knew he would give me his best advice on how to protect my rights and ensure my freedom. I would gladly and unequivocally recommend him and would not hesitate to use him again, should I need legal counsel - God Forbid!

Dedicated and results oriented

Our son was facing 15 years of prison time. Lawrence Zimmerman worked very hard to keep him out of prison, and did! There were many times when it was necessary for us to contact Lawrence after office hours and he always answered the phone or quickly returned our calls. He was on a trip to Florida ...during one incident and made several calls to us, in addition to communicating via email while traveling. The first time we had to contact Lawrence after office hours was on a weekend. Not only did he call us back in a timely manner, but when we tried to apologize for disturbing him at home, he told us not to worry about it because he considers his clients family! Lawrence was always forthright in his communication with us and never gave us false hope. This was a tough case in which the District Attorney was not willing to budge. However, Lawrence would not take no for an answer and after a couple of months of negotiation he came up with a creative way to keep our son from serving prison time that the District Attorney was amenable to. We are so thankful that Lawrence was recommended to us and was willing to help our son.

Mr. Zimmerman Saved My Professional Career!

When I was charged with a criminal felony a year earlier, I was already three years into my post graduate doctoral program in Atlanta. I am a native of North Carolina and after extensive research and conversations, Mr Zimmerman was suggested to me from my most trusted sources. Mr. Zimmerman has b...een more courteous, knowledgeable, and professional than I could have imagined! He was always been extremely punctual with communication, never having to be refreshed on the details of my case or my personal details. While in the process of handling these charges I was extremely worried about the effects of obtaining my professional license; Mr. Zimmerman was always very honest while handling my case with optimism. I can't explain how thankful I am that his conduct and actions made it possible for me to return focus to my studies in preparation for my upcoming final board exams and reviews (which I had been working towards for four years.) I highly recommend Mr. Zimmerman as he is the most professional, factual, and effective attorney I could have ever asked for representation!

Hire Lawrence Zimmerman

Lawrence Zimmerman is one in a million. He is great in keeping in touch with his clients, even went as far to make time to talk to me while his mother was in the hospital. I had never been arrested before and was willing to plead guilty but assured me that there were different avenues to explore firs...t. He filed a motion to suppress evidence that was granted, which lead to my dui charges to be dismissed. He is aggressive in court and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Lawrence Zimmerman if you or anyone you know that happens to get in a sticky situation.
