Experienced, Confident, and Professional!

Just as he says, "Don't Trust Your Future to a General Practitioner". I have been driving for 30 years and in that time, I had one speeding ticket until I was charged with DUI. I had no idea what to do or what to expect. I did some research and decided to contact Mr. Lawson, which was the best dec...ision I could have made. Mr. Lawson walked me through the process, told me what I needed to do, and was very patient with me as I asked many questions. In the end I received the best possible outcome. Mr. Lawson attended my administrative license hearing and convinced the arresting officer to withdraw the sworn report. This allowed me to keep my license and no restrictions were imposed. When we went to court Mr. Lawson was able to get a notoriously strict Assistant District Attorney (ADA) to agree to reduce my DUI to Reckless Driving. Unfortunately, that was not my only charge. I was also charged with Evading / Attempting to Flee, Speeding, Open Container, and Failure to Maintain Lane. Mr. Lawson got the ADA to agree to reduce the Fleeing to Failure to Yield to an Emergency Vehicle, so my two big charges were reduced. He also got the Failure to Maintain Lane dropped. In the end with the two big charges reduced, I kept my License, and he kept me out of Jail. Best possible outcome for sure. I would highly recommend Mr. Lawson. Hire Mr. Lawson, an expert with 20 plus years of experience, and you won't be disappointed.

My Go-To Referral!

A friend of mine was arrested a few weeks ago for the first time. I called around trying to help her find an experienced attorney. I found Mr. Lawson's number from Google and called his firm. He explained what was going on with her charges, and how he would be able to help her. He let me know every o...ption he could give her, and I passed along that information. He was by far the most helpful and honest attorney that I spoke with regarding her case. I will be referring him to any friends or family that need help with a criminal charge or an arrest!

Help is a phone call away

Richard Lawson was a huge help in my case. He has a lot of experience and will go out of his way to help you. In my case specifically, he went out of his way to negotiate with the prosecutor, and he also put in a good word to the judge regarding my progress. This allowed me to get my charges reduced,... and Attorney Lawson prevented me from getting further consequences. Richard really is an excellent lawyer, and a great guy overall!

I made the right decision!

I never had a need for an attorney's services before I was arrested and charged with DUI. I was quite worried about how I should proceed and was fortunate enough to find attorney, Richard Lawson, while searching for advice on the internet. Mr. Lawson was very professional and responsive to every qu...estion I had. His knowledge of DUI law and procedures made me feel extremely confident that I was hiring the right attorney to represent me. Due to Mr. Lawson's vast court experience and expertise in dealing with the judicial system, the outcome of my case far exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Lawson to anyone seeking high caliber legal representation.
