We followed all of the maintenance recommendations on these items and purchased many other cherished pieces over the years. We began having an issue with my wedding set cracking in a certain spot. We had it in for 3 visits within 6 months for repairs. They tried to convince us that we needed to pay $3,800 to have it remade. It was not adding up to us and our trust in them began to fail. I finally picked my ring up in the condition listed as needing to be redone. I took it to a recommended family Jewelry Store in St. Clair and they were saddened that it was not receiving the care or expertise needed to make my ring perfect again. I am beyond disappointed with my experience with Lawrence jewelers. I feel as if we are a number to them now and they did everything they could to make some money off my cherished wedding pieces purchased and designed by them. I think it is shameful. Happy to share that with the right expertise, Coughlin's Jewelers has restored my ring and it looks more amazing than the day of our wedding!

I am in the Port Huron, MI, area and needed my wedding set repaired. I had lost one emerald stone…read more NOTHING more was needed except to check the prongs. Sam Clawson at the Lawrence Jeweler in Fort Gratiot, MI, worked for over a week trying to convice me that my rings were worthless and my smaller diamonds were nothing but chips, my larger diamond was not the quality I thought I had. He assured me I would be wasting money to repair something of it's quality that was so badly damaged. My ring was from Mosher's Jeweler and had been serviced by them for 30 years. I had appraisal certifications to prove the quality and value of all my rings. At the end of our "relationship", Sam was all set to sell me a new wedding set for over $12,000. When I asked for certain information in writing, the whole attitude changed. This jewelry store is not operated as a quality and trustworthy jewelry store. From the first time inside, we felt we were being hustled but wanted to see if we were correct. After their "scam" went south, we left and went to Coughlin Jewelers in St. Clair. They appraised all my jewelry in accordance with my previous appraisal certifications. Not only did they repair my wedding set, they replaced two of my diamonds with larger stones, replaced the one lost emerald, took the two smaller diamonds that had been replaced and made earring charms for me. All for $2,500. I will never darken the doors of Lawrence Jewelers and would advise EVERYONE, before making a purchase, you will be better served and get better quality by going to Coughlin Jewelers in St. Clair, MI.

We drove a couple of hours to where the estate was to meet him and he never answered our phone calls. We left him several voicemails and finally I called him from my phone when we had been using my sister's phone and when he answered, he said great Scott and I told him my name and he hung up on me. I called right back and he let it go to Voicemail. He's clearly dodging us when all he had to do is say he couldn't help us. And also he caused us to make a trip two hours away to look at the estate with him and he never replied at all. Luckily, we had other things to do up there, but I would avoid this person. He is very unprofessional. In addition, he said that anything not sold he would take away for us and I think he said he would charge us but we right away said oh no we will take what doesn't sell. I think he didn't like that and I think he is using estate sales as another person in another review mentioned to make a little extra money from the people Without giving them the money for the sales.
