Scott D Gardner

I want to start off with saying how amazing Scott was in my husband’s trial for a DUI. As his wife, I was nervous and unfamiliar with the process of how to go about choosing a lawyer and how the case itself was going to go. Scott always made me feel comfortable and always made sure that my husband ...and I communicated with decisions that had to be made throughout the case. Scott also wanted to get to know us and made me feel that he really cared about the outcome of the trial. Scott encouraged my husband to take a plea deal, which was a good deal that Scott said he was even surprised about. My husband chose to stick with his gut and not take the plea deal. Again, Scott encouraged him to speak with me and make sure that was a good decision for us. Scott thought it was a better decision to go with the plea deal rather than go to trial, but he never made me feel as if he wouldn’t go all in with the trial if that was the way we chose. Within the process, we met with Scott and he helped me to feel more comfortable and walk through what the trial would look like. On that day, Scott was confident in my husband’s case, but never over confident or cocky. Scott checked in with me on the day of the trial and made sure I knew exactly what the process was and how I was feeling. I was very, very nervous on the day of the trial because I have never been in a court room before but Scott was there to ease my mind. Throughout the trial Scott was well spoken and impressive. He had a lot of great thoughts and points to touch upon while in the trial. If you are looking for a lawyer to represent you, I highly recommend Scott. I was very happy with the outcome of not guilty and cannot thank Scott enough for all of his hard work on my husband’s case.

I was recently charged with a DUI in Maine. I found Scott online while searching for DUI lawyers. Once I contacted Scott, he made me feel comfortable from the beginning. I decided to meet with him and could tell he was very dedicated to his work and was ready to take on my case. His communication wit...h my wife and I was great and he was always flexible on when we could meet with him. As the case went on, Scott encouraged me to take a plea deal but I decided not to take what was offered. The reason why I did not take the plea deal was because the outcome of my case would highly effect my life due to the line of work that I am in and would like to get into in the future. Scott was aware of that and made me feel comfortable that he had that it mind throughout the case. Scott was confident going into the trial and was very organized. His confidence and knowledge of the laws showed during the trial. Within the trial, Scott was impressive with his points that he made and his cross examination skills were very strong. I ended up with a not guilty verdict and Scott was the one to thank for it. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and my decision to choose Scott with a very stressful part of my life, I highly recommend him.

After "shopping" for a lawyer I came across Scott Gardener. He called me right back and gave me an in depth consult over the phone. For the first time I felt a lawyer wasn't trying to take me for all my money knowing I was vulnerable being out of state and having no knowledge of Maine laws. From star...t to finish I can't say how much better I felt having him on my side. He fought with the facts and kept me informed and before each court meeting he met me and let me know what to expect. He fought to beat my refusal as well as get a plea to avoid a criminal charge on my record. I can't say enough about him and I highly recommend him.

I was visiting ME and ended up with an OUI. After speaking with several other attorneys, I chose Scott. He and his assistant were very professional and always accessable. Scott was able to get my charge lowered to a lesser offense so I was able to avoid losing my license. He made a horrible situation... managable. I would highly recommend Attorney Scott Gardener.

5 stars is no exaggeration. Mr. Gardner is who you want representing you if you find your self with an OUI. Mr. Gardner pushes for the best possible outcome. He will also guide you throughout the whole somewhat complicated process. It was clear that he knew what he was talking about and has been doi...ng this a long time. By hiring Scott, I learned the importance of having good representation in the court of law.
