DUI consultation

This was my first DUI and I had no idea what to do. I called Richard Lawson's firm and and even though he was in court he immediately returned my call and provide the information I needed. He told me everything I would need to do and that I neede to act fast as I only had 10 business days to put the ...process in motion before I was unable to file an appeal on behalf of my license not being suspended. If not for Richard and his firm I would've been lost in this whole process! Thanks again Richard!!!

Excellent outcome (Alpharetta)

Mr Richard and his team did a great job in reducing my DUI to a reckless driving. His assistant, Sarah was available all the time and helpful, if I had any questions or concerns. He knows what he can achieve and negotiate based on your case and he predicts case outcome in advance, which will help you... to get ready in advance. Ex: Number of community service hours etc, He seems to know the Court staff (Alpharetta) very well. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome.

Thanks, quick response

I had a question regarding a traffic ticket but it was 10 in the evening. Mr. Lawson promptly responded via text and gave advice on what to do. It was the advice I thought it would be, but it was reassuring to communicate with an attorney quickly. To the point and promt. I will be sure to contact him... in the future if I am in need of his services. Thank you.

Amazing lawyer

After firing my original incompetent layer, I contacted Mr. Lawson's office. I spoke to a very professional staff whom were extremely knowledgable about the law. Shortly after explaining my situation (blew .15 for DUI) not even 10 minutes later I received a call from Mr. Richard Lawson. He was attent...ive, professional, and to the point. He listened to my case and devised a plan for my defense. Him and his team did an excellent job in communicating with me at all hours of the day and night and tailored it to my schedule. I appreciate such a seasoned professional and expert team defending me in my case which resulted in a deduction to reckless driving. Thank you all JB

Outstanding results in a challenging case

Richard was able to secure a reduced charge of reckless driving from DUI in a most challenging case. His knowledge of the law combined with a unique ability to understand the sensibilities of the court allowed him to achieve this amazing outcome. He very likely saved my 25 year career through his... efforts over these past many months. I would highly recommend others speak with him as they consider DUI representation. Thank you Richard.
