Best negotiating skill

I search a lawyer on google and avvo website to find best lawyer with good background experience for fight my case in the court. I called 5 lawyers and only one person, Mrs Allison Groth return my called. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for all the care and concern you have show...n me, and for working tirelessly to ensure that the law worked in our favor. If it weren’t for your analytical skills and knowledge, the matter wouldn’t have been settled by now. Thanks once again for your legal advice, time, and efforts. also, Thank you for always informing me of the best option to take in resolving my problems. I couldn’t believe when the prosecutor agreed that the case should be settled out of court. I really appreciate your negotiating skills and advice on the matter.

Very Responsive and 100% Transparent

On St. Patty's day last year I got into an accident and was getting charged with a DUI. With this being the first time I was in need of a lawyer I was very nervous that I would choose the wrong one. After spending 4 hours looking at different people I could go with, I decided to use Allison. She was ...great! Answered her phone many times on a Sunday and was able to take on my case right away and help me with every step. The whole process took 5 months and she did not once leave me out of the loop of what was going on. Anyone in need of help with a DUI charge go to Allison as she is very professional, honest and will tell you everything you need to know no matter what time of the day it is.

Best attorney in town!

After contacting Allison, I hired her right away due to her incredible level of knowledge, experience, and confidence with the law. At all times throughout my case she was extremely professional. She explained the process and details of the case thoroughly. I felt confident at all times that I hired ...the best Lawyer in town! I would recommend her to anyone that wants the best representation for their case.

Review for Allison M. Lawrence

Groth & Assoc. was recommended by a relative. My daughter hired Allison (Groth) Lawrence to defend her for the charge of 'driving under suspension' (she also had a previous DUI). My daughter had never been in a situation like this before and she was very nervous. Allison immediately set up an app...ointment with my daughter to review her case. After their meeting my daughter felt relief and was confident in choosing Allison to represent her. They were in constant contact. I met Allison at the first court appearance. She was professional and thorough in explaining the court process my daughter would be facing. I attended each court date. Allison always arrived early and explained what would be happening that day. As I had questions that would come up, Allison was honest and forthcoming with me which set me at ease. She also encouraged me to write a letter to the judge pertaining to my daughter's character after I had asked if her if this would be appropriate. The judge had read my letter. Allison alluded to the letter in open court and he asked me to speak on behalf of of my daughter. Of course we expected a sentence but not as lenient a one considering the charge. I know that Allison's thoroughness with the case and my letter allowed the judge to make a more positive decision in my daughter's sentence than he would have otherwise. We are forever grateful to Allison and won't hesitate to recommend her to others.

  • 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.
