DUI reduced to reckless driving

I found myself in the unfortunate situation of a dui arrest. Since I had never faced anything like this before I was totally stressed out and had no idea what to expect. I saw Mr. Lawson's website and decided to give him a call. He answered his own phone and spoke with me at length about my options. ...Mr. Lawson kept me informed throughout the process, which took several months. He was easily accessible and promptly responded to all my emails. In fact, he encouraged me to ask questions as they arose. He prepared me in advance of my court date by having me complete certain requirements and begin community service. In the end, Mr. Lawson was able to negotiate with the prosecutor and police officer to have my charge reduced to reckless driving. I was required to pay a fine and complete community service. I am extremely grateful to Mr. Lawson for his professional work on my behalf and recommend him wholeheartedly!

If you want peace of mind during your unfortunate situation...

A DUI can turn your world upside down. There is no better repesentation than Richard Lawson. He got my DUI reduced to reckless driving and NO loss of driving privilege even though the officer said I refused the breath test, which can result in an automatic 1yr suspension. I couldn't be more pleased a...nd he was more than worth every buck I paid....Thanks Richard!!

Saved My Future

Richard Lawson is an amazing lawyer. I am under 21, made a serious mistake one evening, was in an accident and charged with a DUI and several other citations. Beginning early the next morning, Richard was there for me offering advice. I completed DUI School, drug and alcohol counseling and several ...hours of community service before my court date. Thanks to Richard’s advice and skill, my charge was reduced to reckless driving and I can now go on to college. Richard helped me understand that my foolish action had major consequences and I am thankful that he was there for me.
