While researching lawyers in Georgia for my particular case I was very specific in who I wanted to represent me. After reviewing dozens of firms, I found the Law Offices of Richard S. Lawson. Based on the incredible reviews and years experience he had on both sides (prosecuting attorney and now defen...se attorney) I determined he was the one I would hire. I called on a Sunday evening and was expecting to get a VM but to my surprise he answered the phone. We spoke about my case and the options I would have, he. was very understanding and informative regarding the legal process that I would encounter. Steps provided by Richard were straight and forthright to a speedy and very favorable outcome in my case. The day of the court hearing, Richard was able to provide me with an outcome that far exceeded my expectations! This man is a miracle worker and I would highly recommend him to anyone! Thank you Mr. Lawson!

Mr. Lawson represented me in a DUI case in Bartow that was accompanied with a hit and run, failure to maintain lane and 5 lifetime DUIs. He had my hit and run reduced to a failure to report, and my DUI punishment was treated like a 1st offence and 1st in lifetime with all the minimum punishments. He ...was attentive and easy to talk to. His staff is amazing, and his courtroom skills are impressive. He is always poised and comfortable dealing with you, the DAs, and the Judges. You can’t go wrong with hiring Mr. Lawson and his team.

I had the unfortunate experience of being arrested for DUI in January 2020. Having never been arrested before I was unsure of who to turn and trust. Luckily, Richard Lawson was my first and only call to a DUI attorney. From the beginning he was honest about what he could do for me and what I could ex...pect through this legal journey. Covid did cause some delays in the case being processed through the courts but Mr. Lawson kept me informed the whole time and was available when my spirits were down. Mr. Lawson was able to get my charges reduced and I walked away with my driver's license and no jail time. Thank you Mr. Lawson for helping me through this ordeal. I highly recommend Richard Lawson if you should, unfortunately like me, find yourself in legal trouble.

Richard represented me twice for dui charges two years a part. He saved me from jail time in both instances. Not only was he professional, reachable, and knowledgeable, but he was compassionate and caring. I was scared to death and so ashamed. Richard talked with me and calmed me down, felt like he w...as a dear uncle. He was always there for me for anything throughout it all. Absolutely the best decision I could have made in hiring him.

Reached out to Mr. Lawson after receiving second DUI charges, failure to maintain, and obstruction in Buford, GA. Having just dealt with this trouble, I came in with real concerns. Richard and his associate at the time (Jaime!) informed me of best next steps preparing for court. However, COVID came... along and pushed this process two years along. After the extent of time, and as the request to appear came in, I found myself certain that any defense I might've mustered was wasted by over a year of inaction. I'm very relieved to have known that by hiring Mr. Lawson so long ago, I would have an advocate who was still on my side. From the beginning he made me aware that I could reach out directly and speak, and he was! Trusting Mr. Lawson's advice, and accepting the wide breadth of knowledge in this particularly stressful case that he was very well-informed on, he took my faith and came back to me with our first face-to-face unmasked handshake and relayed the news that the case was dropped!!! Without a doubt, the fact that after all this time that had passed, I had been losing hope for a positive outcome. My first and (HOPEFULLY, no disrespect!) last handshake with Mr. Lawson was also his demonstration and proof that faith in his work is completely grounded. This hiring decision led to the greatest outcome that I hadn't even entertained! The course of my life is diverted not just because of Mr. Lawson's diligence and support, but also because of the myriad negative punitive measures that would have prevented me from improving my prospects and outlook on my future. My family and I are eternally grateful for this outcome and equally grateful that the trust in Mr. Lawson was well-founded and resulted in a happy ending. Highly recommend! 10/10
