Outstanding Lawyer! Excellent Results!

W. Scott Smith is the very best defense lawyer in Atlanta, GA. We would highly recommend Scott to anyone that needs representation regarding a DUI. Scott is an outstanding and very professional lawyer who sincerely cares for his clients. Scott and his exceptional staff were always available to ans...wer any questions that we had and he went above and beyond our expectations. We were confident from our first meeting with Scott that he would successfully handle our family member’s situation. Scott was a God-send to us and we couldn't have gotten through such a challenging and stressful time without him. It was a pleasure to work with Scott and his staff during this very protracted experience. We will never be able to thank Scott enough for his support and for making such a positive difference!

NOT Guilty! DUI Jury Trial

Great Job! - I was found not guilty after a 3 day jury trial. What sets Scott apart is his knowledge of the law when relating to the judge - he won almost every objection he made - combined with his ability to create a strong connection with the jury. I was found not guilty despite quite a few obst...acles throw Scott's way. We were not offered a reasonable deal for a first time DUI (offered serving 8days of a 15day sentence) as the cop was agitated by my attitude the night of the the arrest I told Scott that I wasn't going to take the deal and that even though the odds are stacked against the defendant in a DUI jury trial that I would take the risk. The fact that I was charged with refusal to take the breath test/ blood test meant the outcome would depend on the video and Scott questioning the officer. The video presented to the jury included over 40 minutes of audio not on our version of the tape., I told scott I did not want a mistrial despite one being offered by the judge. Due to it being a speedy trial demand and our expert witness being out of town till the end of the week, he was unable to testify. Despite these setbacks Scott artfully and successfully explained my side of the story and pointed out weaknesses in the state's case and the officers actions/testimonies. He kept me informed the entire time and you can tell that he really cares about every client and every case and understands the magnitude the outcome has. I recommend Scott to anyone and everyone who is facing a DUI charge regardless if you think you'll take a deal or go to trial. I hope never to need a criminal defense attorney ever again - but if I do I will immediately call W. Scott Smith.

DUI? - No Problem!

Scott is great! I was recommended to his firm to one of his lawyers at the firm. On visiting his offices for the first time, I was fortunate to meet with Scott in person. He set me at ease with all my concerns regarding my DUI. It was my first DUI and I had no idea what to do. I followed all instruct...ions given to me by Scott. He knew exactly what steps to take and when to take them. I didn't waste any time and my money was well spent. His recommendations to where to go and what to do, was always on point and I had absolutely no issues. I highly recommend Scott's services. He knows the game very well and will take care of you all the way with full confidence!
