Marshall Scott Goodman

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.

Mr. Goodman was referred to me by a friend and from the first conversation on I have felt nothing but safe. Giving me all the information I needed on my case. His greatest quality I would say is his communication, he made me feel very welcome at all times and always had a good conversation. If I coul...d make the decision for you I would choose him!

Scott Goodman is a well established and professional attorney who represented me and my interests after a Driving Under the Influence (DUI) arrest in Albemarle County. Scott took the time to initially meet with me after normal business hours given my schedule. Scott was very candid and upfront about ...every aspect of my legal case and was accessible and engaged over the duration. I was very fortunate in the outcome of my legal case and attribute much of this to Scott's representation.

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!
