Consultation on a dui situation

Mr Lawson returned my call within 15 mins. He gave solid advice and explained certain procedures that I needed more infirmation on. I regret that I did not contact him sooner in the process.

Best attorney, best outcome and best communication

I called his office for the first time on a Saturday morning, he got back to me alI called his office for the first time on a Saturday morning, and he got back to me almost immediately. From then on, he always answered any question within minutes in a way that was clear. The time from my underage DUI... arrest to trial was the most stressful of my life. Mr. Lawson and his paralegal, Lia, were the ones who got me through it: always reassuring and always realistic. I spoke to another attorney before hiring Mr. Lawson who had promised an outcome before viewing my documents. Mr. Lawson never did that, and I don’t recommend hiring anyone who does. He won’t lie to you, and I really appreciate that about him. He works fast, gives excellent advice and provides the best possible outcome. My charge was reduced to a nolo plea to reckless driving because of him (something I did not ever think would be possible). Mr. Lawson is a lawyer who will fight and actually cares. The best of the best in Georgia. most immediately.

Very good representation during a very difficult time

Mr. Lawson was highly recommended to me by my personal lawyer. I engaged his firm at the time of my initial phone conversation with him late on a Friday afternoon. From that time on my calls and emails to the firm were promptly acknowledged by Mr. Lawson or a member of his team. My questions and co...ncerns were handled promptly with great care taken to ensure my understanding of the legal process and my options when it came to court proceedings. Mr. Lawson was extremely hands on and absolutely willing to travel a long distance to represent me at two court appearances. He was patient and respectful in his dealings with me and my case. The outcome was favorable and somewhat beyond my expectations. I truly feel he went out of his way to achieve this. I would highly recommend Richard S. Lawson a and his firm.

Timely Response with GREAT Advice!

It was the weekend and I needed a timely consultation for some traffic violations. Richard called me back the same day and gave me excellent advice on how to handle the case. I subsequently resolved the matter with greatly reduced fines and no points on my driving record. I highly recommend Richard ...and his team. Thank you!
