Best Lawyer in the State of Georgia

I am writing this review with immense gratitude and respect for Lawrence Zimmerman. When I first hired them, I was facing one of the most serious and life-altering charges imaginable: human trafficking. The weight of that charge, and the potential consequences—including long prison time and mandatory... sex offender registration—were overwhelming. I genuinely feared that my life as I knew it was over. From our very first meeting, Mr. Zimmerman approached my case with professionalism, intelligence, and determination. He took the time to thoroughly review every detail, explain the legal process clearly, and answer all of my questions honestly. I was never sugarcoated or misled, but I was never made to feel hopeless. That balance of realism and reassurance meant more to me than I can express. What truly set Mr. Zimmerman apart was his relentless work ethic and legal strategy. Over the course of my case, they (Appellate Attorney Matthew Winchester) filed and argued countless motions, challenged the prosecution at every step, and carefully dismantled the case against me piece by piece. It was clear that they had an in-depth understanding of criminal law and were not afraid to fight aggressively when necessary. I always felt like my case mattered and that no detail was too small to investigate. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I was kept informed of developments, prepared for each court appearance, and never left wondering what was happening or what came next. In a situation as stressful as this, that level of communication made a tremendous difference. Thanks to Lawrence Zimmerman skill, persistence, and commitment, my charges were ultimately reduced, and the outcome was far better than I ever thought possible. I received no prison time and, most importantly, no sex offender registration. Given the severity of the original charge, this result speaks volumes about his ability as a defense attorney.

Obtained a probation bond/violation of probation-Not Guilty

I retained Mr. Zimmerman to handle a violation of probation warrant. My situation was very challenging. I'm a two-time convicted sex offender. I'm also classified as a level 3 offender (the highest tier) by SORRB. In late March of this year I met with an employee at a public restaurant. They had a mi...nor child with them. A deputy in my county recognized me and reported the contact to probation. In my original sentence I had a no contact with minors condition. A warrant was issued for my arrest. As a business owner and financial provider to my family this was a very serious situation. I reached out to Mr. Zimmerman and even with the challenges he faced with the case, he took my case. He secured a probation bond for me. While on Bond, I met with Mr. Zimmerman at his Marietta office. He was very attentive to my case and went over the hearing strategy with me. On July 2nd we had the hearing for violation of probation. He was prepared and successfully navigated my defense. He cited new and recent case law that showed several of my conditions being unconstitutional. I was very pleased with Mr. Zimmerman's performance. I would highly recommend this attorney.

Hard working and responsive

Mr. Zimmerman goes above and beyond when he takes a case. He helped me when I was accused of sexual exploitation over the internet. He doesn’t judge and just deals with the facts. He’s very responsive and works very hard to win your case, while keeping you updated throughout the process. He is very k...nowledgeable about dealing with sex crimes. He was able to get me the best possible outcome in my situation. I highly recommend him. It’s easy to feel like there’s nowhere to turn when you’re accused of sexual crimes, like the whole world is against you, but don’t give up. Mr Zimmerman and his team can help.

Saved my life!

Back in late 2020 I was charged and accused with a serious sex crime. Being a young man I was scared and lost, however Zimmerman was able to help me get my life back on track so I can one day put this all behind me. Zimmerman will fight for you to get the best outcome he sees possible! I'm glad to ha...ve had him in my corner and would recommend him to anyone!

Absolutely The Very Best Attorney In The State!!

I was facing serious jail time. Lawrence made me no promises but set me at ease with his knowledge and expertise of the law and my situation. He kept me up to speed on all developments in my case and was easy to reach and talk to. He skillfully negociated probation for me as a first offender AND help...ed me after my probation officer falsely placed me on a curfew. He is, hands down, the best at what he does!!
