A strong, tenacious, well respected lawyer who gets the job done!

I got arrested for a first time DUI and my videotape looked kinda bad - my speech, stance and sobriety tests showing some signs of impairment. I interviewed 5 lawyers - and even though Scott was clearly on the pricier end, I felt I could trust him and he seemed to have the passion to fight for his cl...ients and get the best possible outcome in every case. I am so glad I chose him. Mine was not a slam dunk case and on top of that I presented Scott with a very unique set of challenges to address - a mix of immigration, work and international travel related consequences that would be devastating to me if I got a DUI conviction. Scott fought till the very end and managed to negotiate a very creative plea bargain (non-DUI, traffic offenses) that uniquely satisfied my immigration and other constraints. All the other lawyers/court personnel around were like: "wow - how did he manage THAT ?!". Scott has a very strong court presence - you should see the way he breezes around and ease with which he connects with people. More importantly, I believe he possesses good court instincts - he seems to know just when/how to ask for something and when to shut up and back off. Before I left court on the final day, whoever I came in contact with - the prosecutor, the judge, another attorney, and finally my probation officer - ALL of them complimented Scott and congratulated me on choosing such a fine lawyer... and I couldn't agree more :) Thank you Scott!

Godsend

In life you get what you pay for, and in my case, this held true. Mr. Smith recently represented me on a DUI charge. I was elated with my charges being reduced down in the middle of my trial, enabling me to keep my job. I had found a couple lawyers a little more affordable, but I felt comfort with Sc...ott Smith and the way that he listened to me and my wife. From the first time we spoke, I could feel Mr. Smith's confidence in his ability to help me. I definitely would hire Mr. Smith for any future issues that may arise. Thanks again Scott for your dedication to helping me keep my job.

I highly recommend Scott when seeking legal aid. Traffic violations, DUI's - Scott has helped me and my family. Scott and his team are professionals who offer you advice, aid in your defense and do so without being judgmental.

BEST LAWYER EVER!!

Scott Smith is no less than amazing!! Scott represented me in a DUI matter, He showed up ready for trial, came into the court room wth confidence knew the judge, the prosecutors, the officers, (guys got connections :) ) and pushed the Judge to Dismiss my case, - the prosecutor had almost convinced t...he judge to reschedule the court date ( I live in TN a 4 hr drive - and I am a single working mother) But Scott did not back down and convinced the Judge to Dismiss all charges!!!! I could not have been more relieved or happy!!! I now have absolutley no record, no fines, no community service to do, etc. all thanks to Scott! - Also, he has a great staff, was responsive to my questions and very knowledgeable He caught errors by the police on my video that i NEVER would have noticed in a million years!!!! I could not ask for more in a lawyer!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!

The one and only lawyer you will ever need in DUI case.

I highly recommend him for your DUI defense. Help my husband keep his CDL license. Had them to drop the DUI for a lesser charge.Kept us informed and was very nice . Hope we don't need him any more BUT just in case we have your number on speed dial thanks again.
