Community Involvement

Community Involvement

Winning national recognition has not changed the firm's founding core of beliefs.

Smith Elliott Smith & Garmey is proud to have maintained its small-town values, and strives to represent each client diligently and with care and consideration for their legal situation.

Despite receiving national attention and its big city capabilities, the firm remains a small town business, deeply rooted in the communities in which we live and work. We actively accept pro-bono work and are involved in numerous charities and community groups such as the Maine Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts, various municipal boards, the Biddeford-Saco Chamber of Commerce, the Biddeford-Saco Rotary Club, Preble Street and the YMCA.

Over the years the firm has sponsored numerous local golf tournaments raising money for the Red Cross, Counseling Services, Inc., Northern York County YMCA and the Chamber of Commerce. In 1997 Smith, Elliott, Smith & Garmey was awarded the Counseling Services, Inc. Presidential Award for its participation in the “Drive Against Child Abuse” benefit golf tournament. The medical malpractice law firm’s local involvement is reflected in the core values passed on by Charles Smith.
