In 1914 he was elected to the Legislature of this state and re-elected in 1916, where he made a splendid record for he was always fighting and working hard for the passage of reform measures which have been of great benefit to all the people residing within the grand old state of Illinois. Sanitary District of Chicago stood for honesty and efficiency in the administration of municipal affairs. It was through Alderman Lawley's efforts that modern up-to-date business methods were introduced into city affairs in the preparations of the budget. He also caused to be introduced in modern bookkeeping and accounting methods. He has always received the unqualified endorsement of civic bodies and has been praised by the press for securing budget reform. He has always been accustomed to handling big problems as a result of his vast experience on the various important committees of the City Council, and in that work he was often brought in close contact with his present position as one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago. At Deputy, in the Board of Review, serving in that capacity until April 1, 1909.

He was re-elected Alderman from the same ward in 1911, winning out by only twenty votes; but he was deprived of his seat by a strong partisan vote in the City Council.
