When asked if I know a good lawyer my reply is "No...I know an awesome one"

Scott and his "dream" team are great,unlike other firms I have had dealings with in the past, I always felt like my case mattered, they always had time to answer any questions I had, kept me informed, and did everything they said they would do at the time of my consultation. Anytime anyone asks me if... I know a good lawyer my reply is "NO I know an awesome lawyer" and I give them Scott's name and number.

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!

Wholehearted Recommendation for Scott Smith

My son got himself into a sticky situation as boys are prone to do, and Scott was an incredible peace of mind as we went through the grind of getting through the legal system. Everything Scott promised he delivered, and his staff was very professional and accommodating. Another benefit was that Sco...tt is extremely well connected. He knows an amazing amount of people in and around the courtroom who seem to like him as a person. I recommend Scott Smith wholeheartedly and although I hope to never need him again, I do keep his card in my wallet.

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!

Tough Lawyer; Great guy!

Scott represented me back in 2006 concerning a DUI charge. At the time, I lived in another state for grad school and it made no difference. Scott was worth every dime. He fought on my behalf and had my charge reduced to reckless driving. He is an honest, truthful and hardworking attorney. He's the mo...st tenacious lawyers around. I'd recommend him to anyone!!
