Great lawyer, great outcome

Scott was tremendous in handling my criminal trespassing case. He responded to my questions promptly and professionally, even when I was out of the country. Although the case took several months to be resolved, Scott kept me updated as soon as he had new information. Working with him gave me great pe...ace of mind, and I found him to be both trustworthy and personable. He followed my case through to record restriction, as he promised on our first meeting. I am exceptionally pleased with the service he provided, and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Couldn't have done it without him!

This was my first experience with the justice system (charged with criminal trespassing) and I did not know where to start. Scott was confident and knowledgeable about how best to proceed. He and his staff were very responsive to my many questions throughout the process. I was updated at each stage a...nd constantly reassured that my case was being handled as a priority. Scott personally met with various county officials which allowed for my case to be resolved faster than usual. He was able to get all charges dismissed and my record cleared. Thanks to all of his efforts, I did not have to take any time off from work to appear in court and I can now put this whole mistake behind me. I absolutely recommend Scott to anyone who is looking for representation because he has proven that he will work hard to get the best possible results.

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.

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!!!
