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.

Scott Schlegel is a true professional who fought for me

I hired Mr. Schlegel to represent me on a DUI charge. I met with five attorneys who advertised for DUI cases before meeting with Mr. Schlegel. After meeting with Mr. Schlegel, it was like night and day as to the amount of knowledge he had in the area compared to other attorneys. He met with me in... his office for over an hour and discussed all aspects of my case and possible defenses. He never asked me for a penny and said the consultation is free. I hired Mr. Schlegel and at a great price and he ended up getting the charges dismissed. Do yourself a favor and meet with Mr. Schlegel if you want a true attorney who actually returns your calls and keeps you up to date on your case every step of the way.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
