Firm Overview
The Law Office of Jonathan Scott Smith
Where Quality Counts
“I cannot express the appreciation I have for how you have handled my case and the work you have done for me. . . . Your professionalism and customer service is excellent and in this day and age it is hard to find people that conduct business as well as you have. . . . You presented yourself as a man of integrity and you could walk the walk and talk the talk. . . . I’ve boasted to everyone how I have the best lawyer and the ruling in my case definitely reflects that.”
C.A. – Bel Air, MD
A 22-year-old student was arrested and charged with illegal possession of a firearm (handgun) on public school property, after campus police received a tip that the student kept a handgun in his dorm room. The prosecutor sought a conviction, with forfeiture of the handgun, warning that the judge was likely to send the student to jail if convicted. Mr. Smith rejected all plea bargain offers, aggressively defended the student, and took the case to trial. The student was found not guilty, and his handgun was returned to him.
A 23-year-old racetrack employee was struck by a drunk driver driving with a suspended license, causing a traumatic amputation of his arm. Settlement resulted in lifetime payments totaling $2.1 million dollars.
What does “quality” mean in the context of a law practice? At the law office of Jonathan Scott Smith, quality is exemplified in how we work with clients and in the care we take in preparing a case and presenting it at trial.
Personal Service
Some firms advertise the large numbers of cases they have handled. We take the opposite approach. A positive result and a caring, dedicated attorney at your side throughout the process is what matters to most clients. At the law office of Jonathan Scott Smith, we are highly selective in the cases we handle. We take a limited number of cases so we can ensure that each of our clients receives the personal attention they need and deserve.
Thorough Preparation
The care we give to each case gets noticed. It’s what sets our firm apart. Mr. Smith’s extensive trial experience — and track record of successful results — has earned him the recognition of his peers, with an AV® Preeminent™* Peer Review Rating in the Martindale-Hubbell peer review rating process, and a 10.0 Superb AVVO rating. These are the highest ratings possible for legal skill, ethical practice, lawyer’s years in practice, disciplinary history, professional achievements and industry recognition.
Mr. Smith has more than 30 years of courtroom experience in both criminal defense and personal injury cases. He is never hesitant to take a case to court if needed to get a good result. He thoroughly investigates each case he handles and is diligent in preparing for court.
