Utah DUI Defense Lawyer
Utah has some of the toughest DUI laws in the nation. In addition to the possibility of serious criminal penalties, a Utah driver convicted of a first time DUI may have their driver's license suspended for 120 days.

Get the Vigorous Defense You Require
If you have been charged with a DUI, your friends or family may have advised you to simply plead guilty and move on. That could be a costly mistake. A DUI conviction may result in jail time, probation, court ordered alcohol treatment and a significant suspension of your driving privileges.
As an experienced DUI defense attorney, I can provide a vigorous defense on your behalf. If retained to handle your case, I will ask key questions of the prosecution, including:
- Did the police officer have sufficient cause to stop your vehicle?
- Did the officer properly perform any field sobriety tests?
- Did the officer properly calibrate and administer the breathalyzer test?
- Did the officer have probable cause to make a DUI arrest?
Utah DUI laws are very technical. Even if you have a blood alcohol level of .08 or higher, there are defenses I can raise that may result in a not guilty verdict or be used to negotiate a plea to a lesser offense that will minimize the criminal and civil penalties.
