Theres no one better!

I should be sitting in prison but Im not because of this man. I was forced to get out of my vehicle at gunpoint by Marietta PD for accused seatbelt violation. I was also illegally searched during a pat down. 100 percent guilty of possesing what I was jailed for, but I knew it was not legal how I was ...arrested. He was nearly positive and showed incredible confidence in winning the case whereas other lawyers were quick to assume pleas. He was personable and kept me up to date on the case during the process. Then personally called me when he had gotten my case dismissed. By far the best lawyer I couldve had. He gave me a second chance at life when the system was ready to bury me.

You cannot find a more competent, experienced and caring Attorney

I have a well connected network within the judicial system including Judges, Attorneys and Congressmen and when my son was arrested for possession, I did not even hesitate to hire Lawrence to represent him out of all of the available attorneys that I know personally or through the community. I based ...that decision on his solid reputation and highly recommended referrals from the community. Once that case was completed my 2nd son made an even bigger mistake for possession and once again my decision was firm to hire Lawrence to represent him. Matter of fact, it was a different county and over a holiday. I sent him a text through the night and when we showed up for court at 0900 the next morning for a bail hearing, Lawrence was present in court, had my son's bail handled and everything was already taken care of before we even got there. Children don't always make wise decisions especially while in college but the last thing we wanted was those mistakes to become a life long hardship on their future. Lawrence handled their cases with the utmost of care and his expertise allowed my son's to enter straight into diversion. Their record is clean of any charges and their futures stand strong provided they uphold their end of the deal and make better decisions. We would have been lost without Lawrence to handle this for our family. He kept us informed of everything that was happening. He returned calls and/or text promptly. He made sure we were aware of all the hearings (yes, there were a lot). He worked with my son's school schedule to the best of his ability. You could not ask for a more caring attorney to handle something so sensitive for your family. His expertise speaks for itself as he is an excellent well respected attorney not only in the local community but in all of the surrounding areas too. His genuinely caring soul for his clients is above and beyond most attorneys that treat your loved one like a number in a file. You would be a fool not to hire him to represent you in any criminal matter! He is just simply the best criminal law attorney in the business and he will not only meet but exceed your expectations!

Thank you, yes, I am sorry both your kids got into some trouble, but they are both smart and will do great things. You were such a great person to work with, and with all your connections, I was honored you chose me to speak for your family. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Douglas County Case

I was involved in a major case in one of the strictest judicial systems in GA, Douglas County. I was charged with Racketeering, Conspiracy to distribute, and possession of 5 lbs of marijuana. Lawrence did wonders for me during this case. He was very personable and truly showed compassion for my si...tuation. He was able to get me out of serving 5 years without parole on top of 10 years of probation. I ended up getting a hefty amount of probation instead but I'm beyond grateful that I didn't have to serve any amount of time in prison. Not only did he help me get out of these severe consequences but I was able to make a friend through the whole process. Thank you Lawrence for everything you did.

Works with you to achieve the best outcome

If you need expert legal counsel, I highly recommend Lawrence Zimmerman. He is very knowledgeable and focuses on achieving the best case scenario for his clients. He is also well-respected within the court system. When I was charged with felony drug possession, I was very grateful that he was my a...ttorney -- he achieved the best possible outcome for me.
