Gloria Lynn Smith
Seasoned Criminal Defense Attorney
I’ve been fighting for justice since 1993, when I was admitted to the Ohio Bar. In 2024, I expanded my practice to Illinois, where I focus on criminal defense. I’m not the kind of attorney who rushes to plea deals—I stand with clients who are ready to fight back. If you're facing serious charges and want someone in your corner, I’m here to go the distance.
In Ohio, my work centers on post-conviction cases. Whether you're seeking a second chance or pushing for the justice you were denied, I bring experience, tenacity, and a deep understanding of the system to help move your case forward.
I’ve also added personal injury to my portfolio. Accidents are unpredictable—but your recovery shouldn’t be. Insurance companies may treat you like a number. I won’t. I’m committed to helping you get the care you need and the compensation you deserve.
