Klcapito June 20

Richard was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and understanding. Two days after my sons death I got picked up for DUI and refused a breath test I was in shock. I was arrested. When released I had to be hospitalized and failed to make contact with the state about my license he made arrangements to keep my... license and had the charge reduced to reckless driving. I'm very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend him

Miracle results

When facing some big charges, Mr. Lawson and his team were there immediately to start forming an aggressive plan to start some damage control. Not only did he control the damage, he had the majority of the charges dropped at the same time! This team of his was available at any time and was always q...uick to respond to any questions or even just comfort. Polite, honest, and will not sugarcoat what you are looking at...but will shoot for the best possible outcome. Will be recommending Mr. Lawson to anyone in need of an excellent defense. Best part, no jail time on a DUI, not a single hour. He is really there to stand by your side and take in what is in your best interest. A big thank you to this man and his team!

Look no further...

I had a single car accident and received DUI and failure to maintain. I was extremely anxious about the outcome and possibility of time in jail. Thanks to Richard and David Heath I received ZERO time in jail, non reporting probation and minimal community service. I was anticipating far more conseq...uences on second DUI in ten years. Do not hesitate to contact him if you are facing these charges. He is a FIVE star attorney!

Excellent customer service!

I would highly recommend Mr. Lawson. Mr. Lawson's knowledge of the law, along with his experience allowed him to resolve our case without jail time, as well as, retaining the ability to drive. Throughout the whole ordeal Mr. Lawson was only a phone call away. Our phone calls were always returned wi...thin the hour, if not by Mr. Lawson by someone from his office. Mr. Lawson made himself available to answer our numerous questions, which helped keep the stress level down throughout the process.

Really happy with the ending result!!!

After being involved in a single car accident, I was charged with DUI, failure to maintain lane, and driving while unlicensed. Many of my friends told me to just go and plea guilty, as the seriousness of my case would make very hard to reduce the DUI charge. Thank God I did not listen to them, and in...stead I did a comprehensive research about what would be the best option for the county in which I was arrested. Everything pointed to the Office of Richard Lawson. The very same day I call him he put me in contact with a member of his team, who consulted Mr. Lawson along the process. Together, they made possible to REDUCE THE DUI CHARGE TO RECKLESS DRIVING. A very happy ending after all the stress I endured.
