Marshall Scott Goodman

Scott Goodman. Was amazing. I was facing a DUI ( 1.2 BAC). Scott was able to get the charges Reduced to "in proper brakes." No jail time. NO ASAP classes. No report to DMV. No jump in insurance. God I love this man. I put his number on my speed dial, in case I have another STUPID ATTACk,get the be...st or get stuck with The REST. Call Scott first.!!!!

If you need a great criminal lawyer in Charlottesville, VA that is professional, cares about his client and knows his way around the court system then I highly recommend Mr. Scott Goodman. We hired Mr. Goodman after a bad experience with our 1st lawyer. Mr. Goodman was professional, open in our discu...ssions, caring about his client’s well being and did not sugar coat his responses. He responded to all of our requests/questions in a timely manner. He updated us on any progress or discussions with the DA. Mr. Goodman worked patiently and diligently to prep the accused for trial who had difficulties in communicating effectively. In the end there was a plea deal for a jail sentence of 45 days for a misdemeanor instead of a possible 16 years in prison. So do yourself a favor, do your research and meet with Mr. Goodman. You won’t be sorry.

I could not have asked for a better experience with Mr. Goodman. He was extremely diligent (spent time taking pictures to back up my story, answered all my calls/texts immediately, followed up with the court afterwords to make sure everything was fine). We were able to get the judge to take our side ...over the cops and this would not be at all possible if it weren't for his work. He made me feel comfortable throughout it all and I learned the way an attorney should do the job correctly. He also knew all the right people in the right places! A peer had recommended him to me and now I can consider him to be a good friend of mind. Thanks Scott!

I was in a really bad situation, definitely facing jail time for several reasons. I was very stressed out and thought it was very possible that I might lose everything. I went to Mr. Goodman and he very calmly and professional got me through everything with no jail time at all. He knew exactly what t...o say to the judge and put on a great case for me. He obviously cares a lot about his clients, and made me feel very comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone, and will always hire him in the future.

I had never had an encounter with the law until a few months ago when I was falsely accused of a hit and run and more. A “concerned citizen” followed me for 25 minutes to work, honking the horn and calling the Police. I was so embarrassed when they all piled out of their cars at my place of employme...nt. Even worse the officer gave me a breathalyzer test and told me to walk the line. It was 3 o’clock in the afternoon! A co-worker recommended Mr. Goodman. He was worth every nickel and then some. He is very intuitive to your legal needs, communicates calmly and responds in a timely manner to your phone calls. The case against me was dismissed!! I strongly recommend Mr. Goodman – he helped keep my clean driving record of 40 years.
