MISSION STATEMENT OF ATTORNEY SCOTT A. LUTES

I have been practicing criminal law since 1986. I have always considered it an honor and privilege to represent my clients who come to me at one of the most vulnerable times in their lives. The faith and trust they place in me to protect themselves and their liberty from the power of the State and Federal Government is humbling.
When a client retains me to protect them, they’re hiring ME, not an associate, or some other lawyer to whom I refer cases. All of my clients have my cell phone and can reach me 24 hours a day.

I vigorously defend my clients, I don’t simply negotiate a plea bargain. I am referred cases by lawyers across the country due to the reputation I have built over the past 30+ years. I have personally tried more than 100 jury trials in cases ranging from murder to serious drug offenses, and I have conducted more than 1000 misdemeanor trials. I have handled trials in every New England state and New York. I stay abreast of all the recent developments in criminal jurisprudence and I belong to leading criminal defense organizations, so that I may use that knowledge for the benefit of my clients.

Whether you or a loved one are charged with a capital offense or a misdemeanor, I devote myself fully to seeing the best possible result is achieved for my clients.
