Dui

Mr Lawson not only got my case reduced but DISMISSED! He saved my reputation, job and overall sense of peace! He was able to explain everything to me in a way that I could understand the whole DUI process! I highly recommend Richard for your case and you can be assured he will go the extra mile for... you and you wont be disappointed. I couldn't thank him enough. So appreciative for what Richard was able to accomplish on my case. I can once again sleep at night !!!!!

a great outcome

I cannot say enough about my satisfaction with attorney Richard Lawson. Getting a DUI charge against me was a nightmare beyond my imagination. What would happen to me, would I go to jail, or lose my ability to drive to work; how could I make a living? Attorney Lawson worked on my case as a total ...professional and was able to get an outcome that not only kept me out of jail but also kept my driving privalige. It’s my responsibility to change my life and stay on the “right road”, and attorney Richard Lawson gave me the outcome that will allow me to do so. Thank you so much!

Richard Lawson managed the impossible... unbelievable!!

I never thought I'd be in this situation again... a second DUI. By the time I got home from my arrest there were already mounds of DVDs and solicitations for attorneys in my mailbox. Luckily for me, a friend recommended me to Richard Lawson. I called him, and he immediately calmed me down and laid... everything out for me straight. The personal attention he gave me was overwhelming. He was always available for me to talk about my case and never made me feel like I asked stupid questions - which I know I did. Well, I am here to tell you right now - my court case was just this morning and I felt compelled to write - Richard Lawson managed the impossible. He kept me out of jail and gave me the ability to keep driving... COMPLETELY unheard of in a second DUI arrest, charges dropped to what someone might receive for a very first conviction. What happened to me was a horrible mistake, one I will never make again, but somehow Mr. Lawson gave me a new lease on my world. I work in the faith-based and humanitarian world in television, and Richard and his team gave me the ability to continue my work. My parents cried when they heard today's outcome. I'm not sure what else to say except, thank you, thank you, thank you, Richard Lawson.

Great Representation from Richard Lawson

I was arrested for DUI and did not know where to turn. I researched various lawyers. I called Richard on a Saturday morning and he immediately called me back. He listened to my situation and walked me through the entire process. We spent over an hour discussing my options and we determined a plan of ...action. Richard always returned my calls or responded to my emails when I had questions. Because of his experience, he was able to drop my DUI to reckless driving. I am very grateful to Richard for his professionalism during this stressful time. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you, James

Outstanding Service!

We used Richard when I received two DUI's, one of which had child endangerment attached because I was arrested with my 1y/o in the car. After lots of work, all on his part, Richard was able to get one of the charges dropped, the child endangerment one, and I was able to keep my drivers license. He ...was always prompt in returning calls, knowledgable about my case, and truly interested in getting me the best possible outcome. I never felt judged for my situation. I was always treated respectfully. I would highly recommend Richard if you find yourself in the awful situation of facing DUI charges.
