Mr. Lawson provided outstanding help in many ways

Mr. Lawson is outstanding in his expertise, knowledge, responsiveness, and supportiveness. He called me back promptly on each of the several instances that I contacted him with questions. He always provided very knowledgeable clear responses to my questions. These clear answers helped reduce my ...confusion, which then helped reduce my level of stress . He found subject matter experts whose assistance helped greatly in the outcome of my case. He skillfully negotiated with the prosecuting attorney in a way that overcame possible political factors. He was consistently very supportive to me as a person during a very challenging life situation. The outcome of my case would almost certainly have been much less positive without Mr. Lawson's help.

DUI dropped to reckless driving

As a recently retired executive I was extremely concerned about a DUI arrest I had in Georgia. I found Richard Lawson via the internet and what a fortunate stroke of good luck. Mine was a complicated case that Richard handled with confidence and expertise. The charges were dropped to a reckless drivi...ng fine and I suffered no loss of driving privileges. I can not recommend Richard high enough. I my opinion it would be foolish to go anywhere else for representation.

Savannah DUI client

Richard was recommended by my local attorney for a DUI case in North Georgia. He was informative of my options but realistic as I blew over a 2.2. We hoped to reduce the DUI to a Reckless Driving but it was a long shot given the breathalyzer results. I've never been in trouble with "the law" and ho...ped that would help my case. Upon meeting Richard the day of court I noticed he knew most of the other attorneys and the court's prosecutor. After a quick personal interview and review of the police report, he quickly formulated plan and, using his relationships and negotiating skills, worked out the best possible outcome. The judge reduced the DUI to Reckless Driving, I got my license back and paid the minimal fine. Excellent job Richard!

Strong representation from a knowledgeable DUI attorney!

Mr. Lawson obtained the best possible result from a very difficult DUI case. He was able to work with the DA's office to come up with a plea to keep me employed and with my family and I would recommend his services to anyone. Not only did he help me during the case, but has been quick to respond to q...uestions and/or issues after the case was resolved. A++
