Great Lawyer

I am very pleased with the outcome of my case in 2008 with the representation of Lawrence Zimmerman. I was worried with no reason to be. He is knowledgeable about the laws, honest, respectable and compassionate. Because of a great experience, I continue to use him as my lawyer

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!".

Lawrence Saved my Life and Career

Less than 6 months ago, I was Charged with 2x Aggravated Assault with a deadly weapon, Possession of a Firearm During the Comission of a Felony, and Domestic Violence. I was completely Innocent, and facing a lengthy prison sentance if convicted. This was my first time being charged with anything. I ...had never used a lawyer before and i was completely in the dark about the legal system. Mr. Zimmerman did an excellent job explaining everything step by step, and made me feel like I was person instead of just a number. He was genuinely concerned about my well being, and kept me informed in all aspects. I could email him and within seconds he replied. I was stressed to the max and Lawrence gave me peace of mind. He came thru on EVERYTHING he said he would. Mr. Zimmerman was able to score a pretrial intervention, after only 4 months of being charged, and now I have the oppurtunity to get my record expunged... all thanks to Lawrence J. Zimmerman. After my last court date, I had to pay the orentation fee for my pretrial, and I was low on funds... Mr. Zimmerman offered to give me back the check i just handed him, so that i wouldnt have to make another 6hr trip to pay the unexpected fee. If you are in trouble I would hire Mr. Zimmerman without question. Thanks Again Lawrence, you saved my life as well as my career.

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!
