Excellent lawyer helped me out a bunch!

Like the title says he is an excellent lawyer and has helped me with multiple cases greatly. Ive used him for several different types of cases. Criminal defense, dui, probation. He came through very nicely and im very pleased with the results. Any question i had he answered and if he did not know the... answer he found it out and let me know promptly. I trusted all of his advice and im glad i did. I would recommend him to everyone, in fact i have already. Hopefully ill never get in trouble again but if i do i know who to call!

Acquitted of Charges-DUI

I hired Lawrence Zimmerman based on a referral from a friend who had used him and said he was the real deal. He was very informative on all subject matter of my charges (DUI) and all aspects of court procedures. He was always prepared, on time and a positive person throughout the whole ordeal. He alw...ays stayed positive through all of the motions and hearings letting me know we have a good chance of at least lowering the charges. We went to a bench trial where he was able to work his many years of criminal defending to acquit me on the major offense of DUI. I remember when he was presenting his final statement, he told the Judge that the arresting officer never mentioned the "venue" of where this arrest took place. I had no idea what that meant but that is why I had hired Lawrence. He leaned to me, when they were going to the tape recorder to see if he had / hadn't mentioned the "venue", to tell me "....this is like kicking a field goal in overtime!!" They threw out the charges without question based on Lawrence paying attention to every detail. He always made me feel comfortable with what was going on by explaining in layman's terms to what was happening and why. He presented to the DA and Judge all of the evidence which was a huge part of my acquittal. I have referred many people that said they need a great criminal defense attorney or needs advice. He is a person that you would call your, "Go to guy!" for any matter with the law. I also consider Lawrence a friend of mine! Again, if I was ever in need of a lawyer, Lawrence would no doubt be my "Go to guy!".

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!

you want this guy on your side of the courtroom

I had some possible charges pending in Cobb county GA. I was under a lot of stress over it, when a friend told me about this guy, Lawrence Zimmerman . I gave him a call and in a matter of weeks he had my case resolved, my firearm returned along with my body armor. Since then, anyone that has needed a... lawyer i have told them to use Lawrence. Everyone that took my advice was glad they did, and i have never heard any complaints! If you want a lawyer that is going to treat you like a human being,(and not a dollar sign) let you know whats going on, and work his ass off for you. Use Lawrence, you won't be sorry you did.

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.
