Richard Lawson Saved my mind.

Upon getting my dui I had no Idea who to call or what to do. I had called several law offices and even friends personal lawyers. These people either tried to charge me for a consultation or did not seem very helpful or knowledgeable. When I called Mr lawsons office a little frustrated he calmed me d...omn and put me at ease. Mr Lawson spoke with me for an hour about my case with no charge and put no pressure on me to use him as my lawyer. During my case I have to say I was irresponsible at times but Mr Lawson kept me on track and worked with me far above and beyond what he could have and should have. I was very nervous going to court yet Mr Lawson made it very easy and walked me through every step. I can honestly say that Mr Lawson is the only lawyer I would recomend for a dui case. Thank you Mr Lawson!

Excellent Representation all around

This was my first DUI and it will be my only one. After being arrested, I immediately researched representation. When I contacted Richard Lawson the next day, He went through the entire process, carefully explaining everything and gave lots reassurance. My calls and emails were always promptly and... professionally answered by Richard personally. Mr. Lawson had a great relationship with the Judge and prosecution and got me a better outcome than I ever could have hoped for. He did his job to the fullest in every aspect. I highly recommend him. Thank you Richard helping me get back to my life and for helping through this difficult experience.

Good Lawyer

Mr. Lawson represented me in my DUI case and was very helpful. He explained everything to me in detail. He is very knowledgeable about Georgia law. He kept me informed and was very responsive. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

DUI Lawyer

I was unfairly charged with DUI. I didn't want a lawyer who wanted me to take the easy route and plea. Richard Lawson worked hard on my case and pushed for a jury trial. Ultimately, my case was dismissed by the solicitor.

Thank you Richard Lawson!

Previous to hiring Mr. Lawson, I talked with at least five other attorneys (at least their receptionists). Richard spoke with me at length and explained the details of what to expect. I had him hire an investigator as well who really helped my situation. Richard delivered on his promises to have th...is DUI (my first & trust me my only one ever!) to be reviewed with the prosecutor and work out a fair agreement. Richard patiently explained my situation and was always back to me within a short time when I called him for advice. You could see the great repoire that he had with the prosecutor and staff in the courtroom. Thank you Richard for guiding me through this draining experience.
