Posted by Marlin | December 06, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Case dismissed!

I got arrested back in June driving through Mississippi for my moms wedding ceremony. The officers pulled me over for a missing headlight but were very unprofessional and falsely charged me with a DUI, driving inoperable vehicle and a slew of other charges. Don Lasarus got everything dismissed, the D...UI, the marijuana charges and all.. No fines, no court cost, & no harsh sentences or penalties. I would highly recommend Mr. Lazarus to anyone having trouble with this very flawed justice system in the state of Mississippi.

Communicated well with me during process.

He achieved my divorce to my request! Very good job.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Lazarus was very helpful and walked me through all options. He was courteous and paid attention to the smallest details.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
