Trustworthy Attorney

Scott Marvin Schlegel, is by far the most professional, respectful, empathetic and fair attorney specialized in criminal defense. After days of seeking for an attorney to help my case, Scott was the most transparent and only worked hard to aquit my charges. He put his client's needs first and gave ...his time generously to explain all details and steps. I'am very grateful to have found him and highly recommend him above all top San Diego Criminal defense attorneys. Thank you Scott for putting so much efforts.

the best attorney in San Diego!

first and foremost i must say that scott and nikki did a superb job working on my case , and winning it !! they remained professional even when i was off my meds in jail and did their best to get me out . i was being charged with two felonies and thanks to scott and niki i only have 1 misdemeanor. al...so i had another misdemeanor and they lowered it to an infraction , thanks to scott and nikki . they are very down to earth and are two of the nicest , most humble , and loving people I know . I was basically on my way to Patton mental health jail because i was classified as mentally incompetent, but once again thanks to scott and nikki i didnt go , which I tell people is a miracle , but in reality it was because of the hard work of scott and nikki. i always carry around scott's business card with me just in case a friend of mine needs an amazing attorney. hands down , my life would by no means be the same without the legal help of Scott and Nikki . thank you scott and nikki

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
