DUI: How Do I Find a Good Defense Lawyer?

Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs (DUI) in Utah can lead to harsh criminal penalties for those found guilty. Several factors can determine how serious your charges for DUI might be. That’s why you need an experienced legal team who will fight for your rights—no matter the charges.

Experience You Can Trust with DUI Cases

*As of 2018, the legal blood alcohol level in Utah is 0.05.
