Best lawyer in town

Ryan was very professional with my misdemeanor. He laid everything out on the table for me on my possible options. On the court date he got the whole thing dropped which I didn't expect at all. This guy works hard and that's you like a friend instead of a client. If I have any problems in the fu...ture I will hire him again and recommend him to everyone. Thanks Ryan.

I will never use another attorney again!

I was slapped with a speeding ticket for going 22 mph over the limit, and was worried to say the least. Ryan Smith talked to me personally to ease my anxiety and talk me through the options I had. The day after I paid the attorney fee, he informed me that he was able to take care of the charge and no... points were to be added to my license. I was thoroughly impressed with the prompt, and efficiency services provided by the firm and would highly recommend Mr. Smith to my family, friends, or anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney in Charlotte.

One in a Million

Ryan T. Smith is an exceptional attorney and one that I would recommend without hesitation. He impressed me immediately with his quick responsiveness and ability to evaluate situations with objectivity and legal acumen. His attention-to-detail, tireless work ethic and affinity for perfection make him... an ideal choice when faced with choosing representation. (DUI-related Criminal and Civil suit in 2012)

Ryan Smith - Exceeding Exceptions with a Cool Demeanor

I was referred to Ryan Smith from a friend regarding a DUI charge in 2014. I did phone consultations with 5 of the most respected DUI lawyers in the Charlotte / Mecklenburg area with Ryan being my 5th call. The first 4 calls I made to other attorneys left me feeling like they wanted my money to sig...n a retainer and get me off the phone as quick as possible, whether that meant telling me what I wanted to hear or just being short. As soon as I got on the phone with Ryan he asked about my background, and a FULL description of what happened that night. I could tell Ryan was taking very detailed notes and picking my brain for angles of the case while they were still fresh on my mind. I got the feeling that Ryan was beginning to formulate my defense while I was on my free phone consultation; very impressive. Ryan spent over an hour on the phone with me without asking for a commitment or pressuring me to sign anything. This kind of relaxed and professional communication was what Ryan provided throughout the entire process (11 months). Ryan consistently communicated with me every step of the way to ensure I understood what was going on, how it could impact me and our case, and what our plan was moving forward. Ryan made me feel like I was his only client and top priority, but I know this wasn't the case as he had many clients he was handling at the same time, I assume with the same focus and attention he devoted to me. In the end, Ryan got my case dismissed and also got a NCDMV refusal suspension dismissed as well. Hands down, the best result that could have occurred. "Like it never even happened." I have nothing but praises to speak about Ryan Smith, his relaxed but professional attitude, and legal knowledge that resulted in the dismissal of my charges.

Great lawyer

My lawyer was very knowledgeable and helped get my case dismissed. I plead guilty to something years ago because I didn't have the right lawyer. Ryan was able to open the case back up and have it dismissed and later on expunged. I will recommend him to all my friends.
