Aggressive and Affordable Representation
At the law firm of Wasatch Advocates, we believe strongly that every person charged with a crime deserves an aggressive defense. We offer a full service criminal defense practice for the benefit of clients throughout the Wasatch Front. Based in Salt Lake City, Utah, we handle criminal charges ranging from traffic and misdemeanor offenses to serious felony charges.
Aggressive Advocacy
We do not take a fast food approach to the law. Our goal is not simply to seek the quickest and easiest plea agreement. We investigate the evidence through a thorough discovery and review process. We challenge the prosecution's evidence and theory of the case by attacking their evidence from a field sobriety test, breathalyzer test or police officer's testimony.
In addition to seeking a not guilty verdict or a charge dismissal in your case, we can negotiate with the prosecution to see if a plea to a lesser offense is available that looks better on your record, has less significant penalties or, in DUI cases, may better protect your driver's license. We will carefully examine and challenge the evidence in your case to seek the best possible result that protects your record, license and freedom.
Affordable DUI Defense
Utah DUI laws are too harsh in our opinion - especially for first time offenders who can lose their driver's license and go to jail. For a first time conviction, a Utah driver will receive an alcohol restricted license - driving with even a drop of alcohol in your system could lead to another arrest.
Many people charged with drunk driving do not have the ability to afford an aggressive defense. Unfortunately, many local criminal defense attorneys charge considerable fees to provide an aggressive defense to a DUI charge - in some cases as much as $5000 for a first DUI charge.
Our approach is different. Rather than charging people an arm and a leg, we charge an affordable flat fee for a first time DUI charge. Even for a felony DUI charge, we are reasonable in our fee structure. Not only do we offer a flat fee for a first time DUI charge, we do not charge extra if the case goes to trial — our flat fee covers the cost of trial if trial becomes necessary.
