Excellent Counsel!

Richard is an extremely knowledgeable attorney who actually answers his own phone. He helped me with a DUI in Paulding County with a reduction to reckless driving and no license suspension! DUI law is all he practices and his expertise is evident in his tremendous results. I highly recommend him.

DUI - He's your man!

Richard recently helped me when I got my first DUI. I have never been in trouble with the law before and I was scared. Scared of losing my job, scared of losing my family. He walked me through the process and then continued to answer my questions throughout the entire process. Excellent representatio...n in court and even got my sentenced reduced!

Help has arrived

Richard Lawson was a great attorney for me. He is knowledgeable of the DUI laws, field sobriety test, the players, what to do and when to do it. I got the DUI in a small town and very late at night. Spent the night in jail. Got out the next day retreived my car and started looking for a good attorney.... He answered the phone to my suprise, we discussed the situation. He said it's not the end of the world and things would be ok if I just listen to him. I did DUI school, 40 hrs. of community service, the evaluation and then we went to court. My DUI was reduced to reckless driving, I kept my licence and paid the fine. It's not on my record witch I'm thankful for. He is worth the money for the results that I received.He explained everything, walked me through it step by step and answered any questions I had. He was very personable and returned my calls promptly. I am glad he represented me during this awful moment in my life. It's over and I feel good with the decission that I made. Good-Luck to you and yours.

Second DUI

I was facing a second DUI and Richard was able to get my charge down to a wreckless driving with a fine! He has been very professional, and has really worked hard on my case. I'm astonished to say the least and extremely happy with my outcome!

Richard Lawson, the best DUI attorney for out of state drivers too!

My son is an under 21 Michigan resident and was arrested for DUI in Georgia. I had no idea what was going to happen, but Richard took the time to explain everything that needed to be done and got my son through all of the necessary programs prior to his court appearance which made all of the differen...ce in the world in the outcome. Thanks so much for being so personable and helping us through this.
