If I chose Not Guilty, a killer would have been freed and an innocent woman would have gone to jail (and probably would have died).
Also, the title of the game says "Justice for All", and that's what the Guilty verdict is. Justice.

And as mentioned, Adrian would have been sent to jail as well. It just seemed to bring more justice if "Guilty" was chosen.

If the miracle never happen, with a guilty verdict,
With a not guilty verdict,
"Better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer". Blackstone, Commentaries, pg. 358. However, in this case, either way,
This is why I enjoyed 2-4 the best. you are given an actual, human choice, and neither of your options are optimal. And I agree it says a lot about you. What is your first duty? Is it to your client, who has his money, liberty, or even life in your hands, or is it to Justice with a Capital J, serving the greater good of society?
How far a defense attorney should go in representing a guilty client is a great matter of debate in legal and philisophical circles. When I take ethics, I'll let you know what the "official" word is. Personally, I wouldn't turn away a guilty client, but I would have extreme difficulty entering a "not guilty" plea when I know otherwise.

GUILTY AS ALL HECK!!
I would NEVER represent someone if they up and confessed their guilt (unless they plead it as well)! If I ever become a lawyer (which I doubt because I don't think I'd be able to handle that much paperwork), I'd ask my client to tell me their plea and that's it. An innocent client could plead guilty if they didn't have faith in my skills, and a guilty client could plead not guilty to protect their own ass.
However, if they do plead guilty...

But why would she get a trial if Matt is declared guilty in the end? Was there some other crime she did?
She tampered with the crime scene to make it look like Matt did it, instead of de Killer, remember?
Anyway, I failed at that part where you're supposed to present to Edgeworth your last hope for the extra evidence or whatever, so I completely wasn't expecting Franziska to jump in.
When I first learned about Adrian's past and condition, I told myself (as Phoenix, since I guess while I play he's a part of me) "I have to protect her from all the bad things in the world." It was bad enough having to try to force the blame on her to stall for time, but I had to move the story along. I considered getting the "Not Guilty" just because then Matt could be brutally murdered by de Killer for what he did to Celeste and ultimately Adrian, but it wasn't worth losing dear Adrian.
So, I chose GUILTY.

Matt was a horrible person, and even though Maya would have died (that's what Pearl's for)
I also couldn't accept a Not Guilty because of all the help Edgeworth had given (wow... I have sentiments for video game characters. O.o
And with Edgeworth's "change" I felt that Phoenix should change his methods as well.
They should tar and feather Engarde.

NOT GUILTY: An innocent woman dies, a killer is set free.
So what's better: A killer goes to jail or a killer is set free?

Actually, bear in mind that the guilty verdict causes a close friend to die, rather than a random innocent.

Guilty: Justice is served, but Maya dies.
Since Maya gets on my nerves sometimes, and because the first option is less desirable to a lawyer, I chose the second.

A defense attorney (if hired by the state, at least) has no choice but to get his client off the hook. (He can't simply "drop" the case).
And anyway, the game completely misrepresents what could happen. Maybe, Phoenix would take Adrian's case after the fact. And the funny thing is, when De Killer testifys, against Adrian, you can still get Matt found guilty

But if I didn't knew about the multiple endings I'd plea "Guilty" right away. I was so damn mad at Engarde I couldn't help it D:
(Not that this is possible in real life, attorneys can't go against their clients, Phoenix could even be sued. I got really confused at this part, thinking about it now.)

My Personal opinon is Guilty, I can't stand Matt from the get go. And he so many things wrong with him it's amazing, like the Glass popping from nowhere, and that phone in the detention center.
Yup Agree with you 150%

And I deliberately tried to keep it ambiguous to my friend, I told him about the multiple endings but didn't tell him what they were or where they came.
Just so that when he came to the Guilty or not guilty decision it might make him sweat a little more
