Dedicated solely to criminal defense. Proven track record of nearly 3000 cases.
Flexible and affordable payment options available. Call or text 801-264-6666 for free consultation.
I have personal experience in nearly 3,000 criminal cases, ranging from DUI to rape to murder. Over the past 12+ years of practice, I have worked with hundreds of police officers and prosecutors and have appeared in court thousands of times. I know the system and the tricks the police use to gain an advantage. Few attorneys possess our firm’s background and extensive experience in this area of the law.
EXCLUSIVE PRACTICE - My practice is limited to Criminal, DUI, and Traffic defense cases. I am not a general practitioner who handles many different types of law. Criminal law has been my focus area since I became a lawyer over 10 years ago.
CUSTOMER SERVICE - I treat clients the way I would want to be treated if I was experiencing legal problems – with honesty, kindness, and respect. I do not tell clients what they want to hear just to get a case. I do not scare clients into retaining me. What I do is tell clients the truth and what the best strategies are, right over the phone. I return clients' phone calls. Additionally, my staff is well-informed and very helpful if I am not in the office when you call.
FREE IN-DEPTH CONSULTATIONS - I gladly talk to new clients over the phone. I will answer every question that you have over the phone, or even in person if you prefer, for free. I will gladly explain all of your options, give you my honest opinion about what could happen to you, and I even quote a fee right over the phone. I believe that an informed client is the best client.

- Top Ten Criminal Defense Attorneys in Utah Award
- National Academy of Criminal Defense Lawyers
- The National Academy of Criminal Defense Attorneys is an organization devoted to recognizing the top criminal defense attorneys in the nation. With over a million attorneys in the United States, choosing the best lawyer is difficult. However, through a stringent selection process, the NACDA awards the best criminal defense attorneys in each state with our most prestigious honor of being named "TOP 10". The very few attorneys (less than 1%) that are good enough to make our list have demonstrated an extraordinary amount of knowledge, skill, experience, expertise and success in their practice of criminal defense. The attorneys that make our list have to first be nominated by a licensed practicing attorney or one of our in-house research staff members. Second, our research staff verifies that they meet the minimum requirements of membership. Then they have to be one of 50 attorneys chosen to advance to the final selection stage by our processing committee, and then our Board of Governors officially selects the Top 10 in each state. We know it is a tough process but we wouldn't have it any other way.

- Q. I am facing 3 Charges for contributing to a minor for alcohol but I am not of legal age to purchase it and I know the
- A: According to the law, an "adult" for purposes of "Contributing to a minor" is someone who is 18. So, unfortunately, even though you are not of legal age to drink, you are of legal age to contribute to a minor. However, an attorney most likely would still be able to help you with this charge by either dismissing charges or getting them reduced to something much lower.
- Q. I'm on probation and renting a room in my aunts house, can they search the whole house or only my property and room?
- A: Normally, law enforcement only has the right to search the area you're renting. If your rental agreement allows you to be in other parts of the house, then you're not just renting a room, but all the common areas, too. The other parts of the house may also be subject to search if you don't have a separate entrance/exit door into your room. The contract you have with probation might even require that the building you have a rented room in be open to searches. However, a search of your aunt's personal bedroom is probably illegal, unless you frequently go in there and law enforcement has probable cause to believe that you do so.
- Q. citation after an accident the day before i moved to Canada. I found out that I need to appear in court. options?
- A: You can quickly resolve it by paying the fine (which may include restitution). However, if you would rather contest it, an attorney can go to court for you and resolve it without you having to come back. An attorney would be able to get the police report and figure out different options of how to resolve your matter, which may include dismissing certain charges, amending the charges, reducing the fine, or even taking it to trial.
If you enter the U.S. without having resolved it, it may have an effect on reentry. Because it's just a traffic matter, they may let you enter to take care of it. There is a possibility that it may bar you from reentry. If there is a warrant, that could mean ... Read More
