Reviews of Wasatch Defense Lawyers (Attorney)

Shannon Hanson

I've had a wonderful experience with Wasatch Defense. The actual owner of this firm went to bat for me, and my case is being resolved favorably! They are expunging my record so that I can peacefully move on with my life. I was so nervous about my case I couldn't sleep for weeks until I called and they eased my mind. Give them a call and you won't regret it. I am thrilled that I picked these guys!!

Carlos Mendoza

I can't praise them enough. This legal team is the real deal and really helped me out. I highly recommend them to anyone.

Carly Van Leuwen

Ethan fortier

I was extremely stressed out about my case until I had a meeting with Lane at Wasatch Defense Lawyers. After talking with Lane who was the lead paralegal I felt like I was in good hands with these guys and went to face my court case knowing I would get the best out come possible. Lane lined me up with Jeanne Campbell who would be the lawyer on my case and she was so good to work with. She worked hard to make sure all my needs were taken care of in the court room and did not back down until we got the results re were looking for. Communication with both Jeanne and Lane was beyond 5 star service. I would recommend these guys to anyone who needs some help in the court room. They went beyond what I had expected and made what could have been a nightmare for me smooth and easy to deal with. I hope I don't have the need to call them any time in the future but If I do its great to know these guys will have my back. I will be recommending them to anyone who has any legal issues in the future! Ethan Fortier

Elise Gutierrez

I can't say enough good things about Wasatch. When our family contacted the firm, we immediately received a response. The attorneys went above and beyond to provide information and went out of their way to locate our loved one. I was super impressed with the information and communication I received before a retainer was paid. It is great to know that there is someone looking after your back and not just your wallet.

Haley Gorzitze

Very impressed with Wasatch defense lawyer. Craig,Lane And Jeanne are very professional and very knowledgeable. Even with the case closed Lane continues to reach out to my family to make sure we are taken care of. If I need something Lane takes action quickly. Jeanne fought so hard for us and made sure we had a great understanding of what was going to happen each time we had court. She made sure our questions and concerns were answered. We Definitely will use wasatch defense lawyer again!

They represented me for my first ever charge and did a wonderful job. I was scared and confused about the legal system and they were kind to me which really helped settle my nerves, they answered all my questions and helped me through one of the scariest times in my life. They were extremely professional and answered my calls day or night. I would use again and would recommend them to anyone!

First time ever needing an attorney and these guys made me feel comfortable. Layne is knowledgeable and makes you feel confident. I’m so happy that I have chosen Wasatch Defense Lawyers to defend me. I can not thank them enough

Katie Johnson

Had a great experience meeting with our attorney. We immediately felt better about our situation, knowing what we could expect and how to proceed. From just a brief conversation, a lot of our anxieties were eased. I would highly recommend Wasatch Defense Lawyers to anyone needing a defense attorney.

Cassandra Smith

Needed to clarify what “enticing a minor” in Utah entailed. Wasn’t sure if I handled a situation appropriately, or if I needed to protect my child more. Their blog was helpful, but a phone call was even more helpful. No charge for their advice today. Will happily call if I have questions again.

Nik Effgen

Great firm who knows their stuff. Lane put my mind at ease and talked me through everything I needed to know. Thanks for all your help!

Sonja Brown

When you are faced with criminal charges it is difficult to think clearly and make good decisions . That, in addition to not understanding a legal process complicates matters even more. Craig & Lane explained the law, outlined in clear language the steps in the process that would take place. They were reassuring, articulate, and effective. Craig made the process so much easier and gave me peace of mind in a stressful but successful outcome. I selected Wasatch Defense on recommendation from a trusted friend and was some of the "Best" advice I have ever received.

Lucas Roberts

If I could give 10 stars I would. Very easy to work with and great communication. I can't thank Layne enough. Highly recommend.

Ben Fishler

If I could rate this Law Firm 6 Stars I would!! Paralegal Lane was very knowledgeable in the law and gave me good sound advice. On a Saturday I called and Lane put my mind at ease. The Utah laws were explained to me very clear , even an 8 year old would understand!

Jamie Wagner

I don't even know where to start. From finding this company on the internet, to talking to them on the phone, to doing all the research I needed to do before choosing an Lawyer, I have had a great feeling about them handling my case. When I spoke with them on the phone they immediately set me an appointment to come in on a Saturday evening. From that day on we have had one on one communication night or day. No matter the time they answer my calls or they call me back in a timely manner. They are very professional, yet friendly and 100 percent supportive to your needs. They will go the extra mile that is without a doubt. I am very grateful to everyone on their team.

Christinah Mulder

Craig and Lane were immensely helpful to our family. They were sensitive, discreet, and approachable. They also did a great job translating legal jargon into understandable information so we could feel informed and confident moving forward with our case. We were also highly impressed with Wasatch's responsiveness and commitment to gettibg the vest results for us. We were moving out of state soon, and they helped us resolve our case quickly and without unnecessary stress and uncertainty. They also helped us find a constructive and appropriate solution for our case, taking care of things in a swift and effective way. We were very grateful for the help and quality work provided by Wasatch Defense, and we would highly recommend them to anyone else needing legal counsel or defense!

nora perkins

I can not say enough good things about Layne at Wasatch Defense Lawyers! He has really done a great job seeing me through the process that takes place in order to handle my case effectively. He is doing a tremendous job and I recommend using their services. They definitely get an A+ rating from me!

Lara Corbridge

Paul spent 2.5 hours with us in a face to face consultation and worked late on a Saturday night preparing paperwork. Layne is very responsive to questions and provides reassurance. They are very committed to taking care of Veteran’s challenging needs! I highly recommend Wasatch Defense Lawyers.

Amanda Hill

Lane is amazing. He took the time to explain to me what we need to do for my husband and within 24 hours was working on getting a motion filed to the courts. He even took time from his family dinner to assure me he was going to be able to jump in and help us during this hard time for my family. Thank you, Lane!

Katryna G

Lane & Wayne have done a tremendous job handling my Son’s case. The amount of support & time they have put into battling the case has been very helpful to my family. These are Lawyers that Are reasonable & people that you can definitely count on to get the job done. Thank you Wasatch Defense Lawyers

If I could give over 5 stars I would. The Wasatch Defense Lawyers website has a lot of helpful information and the defense lawyers are very professional and easy to work with!!

Kirsten Blake

Communication is key, and these guys have it!! Very educated lawyers and staff. They will do anything in their ability to help you and your case. Don't waste your time looking elsewhere, give them a call. Thank you for the help. Blessed

Kim Irish

Our son got himself in a legal mess. We came home to a letter on our door from Wasatch Defense Lawyers. We immediately called them and they guided us through the steps to helping our son. They were on the ball and helped us, our son and his child to getting on the right legal path from our first contact. Because of all they did our son got a minimal sentence and has been able to live a fairly normal life. We are so grateful for all they have done for us over the last 5 years.

Emily Felice

Highly recommend Wasatch Defense Lawyers, they treat there customers the right away. Always responsive and easy to work with!

Kate Roberts

I've never needed a defense attorney before, so you can imagine I felt a bit lost when looking for one. After doing some researching online, I came across Wasatch Defense Lawyers. I read their high reviews and praise, and decided to give them a call. Immediately after speaking with them I felt at ease, and like I had a partner on my side. Layne is clear, direct, and knowledgeable. I can't recommend or thank them enough!

Tracey Williams

They are willing to work with you when a payment is difficult . If you demonstrate that you are trying to make payments and keep them posted regarding any issues, they work with you. Their paralegal is a great liaison between clients and the attorneys. He communicates with the clients and helps promote their best interests to the attorneys. Wasatch Defense Lawyers does what they can to get to the best possible outcome for your case. They put in toms of effort while communicating with the prosecutor and judge, when needed.They try to get the best possible outcome for your case. While working and hoping for the best result they are also realistic and honest.

Jeffrey Rands

I remember the days of Domino's when it was 30 min or it is free. We didn't know each other but I called and spoke with the receptionist and explained my problem. Once I did she contacted the attorney and he made sure he was available in 30 min for me. WOW that is fast. We were able to solve my problem in no time at all. They are great and worth every penny!!! Thank you so much for your assistance. I would recommend them to anyone!!!

Beau Bown

Highly recommend Layne at Wasatch Defense Lawyers. Incredibly responsive and very easy to work with. If you need legal help, look no further!

Christina Fenstermaker

My brother got Into some trouble and had multiple charges in different counties. They were able to pull everything together and worked hard and gave great advice as to what direction we needed to go. Lane was always available honestly anytime day or night to answer questions or just let me know what was going on. He explained everything so we were on the same page.

Alex Carrera

After speaking with several other lawyers who told me they couldn't help me with my case, I spoke with Craig and Lane who told me with high confidence that they could do exactly what these other lawyers said they couldn't. I’m not going to go too far into it but I was charged with enticing a minor and it wasn’t a fair charge. So, if you're feeling like there's no hope left, I would suggest going to this law firm because they have the experience, knowledge, and resources to help you, but more than that...they WANT to help you! I'm happy to say that I can now move on from this part of my life and I'm forever thankful for that.

Ashley Creer

One of the scariest moments in your life is realizing you or a family member needs a criminal defense attorney and now! Lane, with Wasatch Defense, was able to meet with me immediately and help me understand what to expect throughout the court process. Both Lane and Jeanne were quick to respond to any follow up questions I had. I felt comforted knowing that they had the knowledge and experience to handle such a sensitive situation. The court system is a scary place to be but it’s so nice to have an advocate that will speak on your behalf.

Lane Summerhays

I have never hired an attorney before, so when it came time to do souses lucky google brought up Wasatch Defense Lawyers # That’s all it took, the attorney they assigned to my case was so knowledgeable, he explained everything so clearly I was a dam so happy with my experience hear, if I ever need another attorney I know who to call Thanks Wasatch D Lane Summerhays

Amber Preece

When I found myself looking for an attorney to help my husband, I had no idea what to look for. I found this website. At 11 PM Lane called me back and quickly became my life line for several days. He checked on me and continually walked me through the process. Lane made sure he was there for me and was the light I needed during the darkest time. I wouldn't trust anyone else. They will are a force to be reckoned with and will never stop fighting for the best outcome!

Jeff Weaver

I was so impressed by this team at Wasatch Defense Lawyers. The help they provided with their experienced team was much appreciated. I cannot thank them enough. I recommend them highly to anyone who is in a situation where an experienced law firm is needed. A++

David Nyberg

Great representation. Came through as they said they would. Very honest and gave plenty of information about our case. Wasatch Defence Lawyers were highly recommend by several people who had good experiences with them. I highly recommend them also.

Allen Glaberson

Lane at Wasatch Defense has been real life saver. First he was THERE for us , on a holiday we had no idea was occurring. He has been sympathetic , professional, responsive and understanding of our situation. It is a real comfort to know that someone with a good head on their shoulders is in our camp and on our side , especially as we are travelers far from home. Strangers in a strange land kind of thing. I can enthusiastically recommend him to anyone who finds themselves in a difficult legal situation. He will quickly understand the basics of the situation and willingly put his shoulder to the wheel for you. The firm has been around for decades and knows ALL the local people who make up the legal system in the state. This allows them to provide the best advice possible. I am resting easier knowing that they are on the case.

J'Amy VanderVeur

The lawyers were helpful and understanding. They spent time with us and away to make sure they were ready for our case. With out they the whole ordeal would have been a lot more intimidating. Can’t thank them enough!

Lafe Jordan

I found myself in a spot and Lane knew exactly what to do to. He was honest about what to expect but still delivered what needed to be done. He is personable and conversational and never made me feel like he was in a rush to get me off the phone. The work by him and this office has changed my life. Thank you.

Aaron Blake

If you need legal help, call these guys right now. You will not regret it and this was the best money I have ever spent. Since my first phone call all the way to getting my charges dismissed, these gentlemen were professional, answered all my questions, and helped remove my concerns. Craig and Lane are absolutely amazing at what they do. They helped me get my life back and truly gave me peace of mind. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs legal help.

Peter Franks

It is a real pleasure for me and my wife to work with lane and other team members of Wasatch Defense. We are impressed that they keep us intimately involved in the process and give us valuable advice. They are extremely competent, professional and efficient. We are very happy with their services. Things are ongoing for us but we know we are in good hands.

Maggie Whitaker

These guys had my back from day one! I was in a lot of trouble legally & personally. I was strung out on drugs & had several serious charges including a felony charge. They were very professional, dependable, understanding & kind to me & my family. They had to appear with me in court, 6 different times for the same case. After all was said & done, my charges were all dropped to misdemeanors. I trusted Craig & Lane, they did not let me down. This was almost 6 years ago that they defended me, I have changed my life around & I still talk to them on occasion with silly legal questions. they are really great men. Other people in my family have also received Legal services from them, cause they see how much they helped me. I would 100% go to these guys if I ever got myself in a pickle or needed them for any legal issues. They have a very successful business & I can see why, they are the best!!

Mea Olsen

These guys are so amazing and I’m so satisfied with these customer service and how much they care about helping their customers. Id recommend them to anyone. Thanks again for your help

Amanda Woolery

Wasatch Defense has been incredible to work with. They are friendly and caring. They know their stuff. I’ve been very impressed and thankful to have them on our side.

Jorge Michaels

I would like to say Wasatch Defense Provided me with excellent legal representation. Lane treated me more like a friend than a client, and that really meant a lot to me. Craig's the type of person that listens and has a lot of understanding and compassion. Thank you guys for all the support and understanding all of you gave me during this emotional and devastating time of my life. It has meant the world to me !! I will be sharing your number.

Jacklyn Polaco

Craig and Paul helped us with a small claims case and were passionate, analytical thinkers. They brought up great points on what could reasonably be enforced. Were quick and to the point in meetings.

Gabriela Godinez

My questions are always answered with any legal issues I have. The availability is amazing! I highly recommend this law firm.

Joseph Corbridge

Service was very professional yet personal as well in my case. Answered and addressed my questions and concerns thoroughly! Would highly recommend!

P4trikk

Working with an associate facing possible decades of prison time and a lifetime of restitution we found Wasatch Defense Lawyers. With a phone call they met with us that night, after hours and were all over it the next morning. Long story short we just finished sentencing. The possibility of years of incarceration was dropped for probation (not parole) The monetary restitution remained but was put into a more than fair payment program. I truly don’t believe that a better outcome could have been achieved by anyone. This team is incredibly attentive and knowledgeable of the legal system. Even the judge was surprised by the recommendations of AP&P as far as punishment. The team is also very understanding and compassionate. We were never judged or looked down on but instead I feel they went out of their way to provide reassurance, much like a group of friends trying to help out. As nice as they are don’t get me wrong Jeanne, Lane and Craig are a high, end powerful defense team, hard hitting and to the point. I recommend them to everyone and I wouldn’t hire anyone else!

Jack Deveraux

Words can not explain the level of dedication Wasatch Defense Lawyers put towards helping me and my family. Very professional, thoughtful, helpful, and understanding. No matter the time of day, they were there to help whether it was 8AM or 11pm. They gave me peace of mind and answered all of my questions. If you need a legal help, give them a call. Can't recommend them enough!

Jeremy Carter

Craig is a great lawyer, and the only choice you should make if you get into a situation with the law where you are unfamiliar. He listened to what happened, and even when I thought it was black and white and I had no hope, he explained what he could do and process, and made me feel very comfortable. He is knowledgeable and got me a better outcome than I could have ever expected. I was in a situation where I thought I had screwed my life up and Craig was able to get me into a situation where I could get back on track and put everything behind me. I wouldn't recommend any other lawyer if you are accused of possession of drugs or a DUI.

Ken Yama

Recently needed the help of legal council I federal court. Outstanding service and representation, discreet, honest, and swift action are just a few of the words and phrases to define the character of Wasatch Defense Lawyers and their entire staff. Fred was excellent! He provided superior guidance, not sugar coating the situation. He explained how the laws affected me and outlined all the potential pitfalls ensuring we were properly prepared for whatever the outcome was. I would highly recommend Fred. He is highly competent and has a great group of lawyers and support staff working with him. Call him if you need an excellent lawyer on your side. He is definitely my lawyer of choice for all legal matters moving forward.

Beth Howard

I really appreciate the time Lane and Craig took to listen to me, and the efforts they made to work with me. The solution they presented me with was not one I had considered, but it is one that seems to have the potential to solve all of my problems. Everything was explained in a simple, straightforward manner as a probable outcome, though of course there are no guarantees. I also feel that the fee I was quoted for all of the work they are going to do is more than fair. After spending quite a few days reading reviews and researching attorneys, I am glad I decided to go with this firm. You owe it to yourself to at least sit down for a consultation and listen to how they can help you.

Mandy Daniels

I met with Lane this evening he is wonderful and knows how best to help his clients or the clientele I really liked the fact that it was a free consultation and he was patient with me as I had a rough time finding parking he was concerned about me and waited till I got there and then let me inside the building as it was after hours I also like the fact that I do not have to have money upfront except for the filing and constables fees. He is not in it for the money I honestly felt he is more interested in my situation and how he can best help me.

Vance Bowman

Honest Review: I'm sure there are plenty of lawyers who would love to just take your money & run. These guys aren't those. They stayed with me from start to finish, then continued to help me after the case & sentencing were closed & done. Through my numerous visits to a courtroom, I saw what "Public Defense" lawyers weren't doing for the poor souls with no better choice in legal help. All I can say about that is 'Thank God I had good lawyers!' My case was handled very efficiently and very well. Damage to me was very minimal. I still paid for my mistake but thanks to the right help, I've been able to come a long way since. Today I have a family, a house and a good job. Special thanks to Wasatch Defense Lawyers.

Hunter Draper

The best defense lawyers in Utah! I was charged with a DUI and Possession of Marijuana. Their fast and caring responsive was unlike any other attorney I’ve talked too. I knew right away they would be the best lawyer team i could get! Craig and Lane got my possession charge dismissed and DUI dropped down to reckless driving! I cannot express how grateful I am to them. You could tell from the beginning how much they care about you and the work they do. They stayed in contact with me and let me know I could contact them at anytime. They helped protect me from the court system ruining my life over one mistake. I would refer them to anyone!!

Carrie Bell

We called Wasatch Defense Lawyers in a serious time of need. After meeting with several attorneys we went to a free consultation with Lane and Craig. After the meeting we knew exactly who we were going to choose to represent us. They knew what they were talking about and took action right away. I can't thank them enough for all the fighting they did for my husband and I. We had an outstanding outcome and recommend them for all your criminal attorney needs big and small.

June Rowuin

I couldn't have worked with a better defense lawyer, Lane and Craig were amazing! They were so friendly to work with and they really made me feel cared about. They really fought hard for me in the court room. They are extremely smart and well versed in the law. I would work with again and recommend to anyone!

April Young

I had no idea how to navigate the waters of the legal system. Craig and Lane walked us through the different scenarios and advised us at every turn. They were even able to show up with about a 12 hour notice when we had an urgent need at a court date. His entire team is very professional and kind. He sincerely cares about our family's situation. The outcome was better than our expected best-case scenario. I would recommend Craig and Lane to anyone especially if you need a criminal defense or DUI lawyer.

Michael Carleton

AMAZING! The level of personal and professional diligence is above and beyond reproach! From the moment I made my first call*which was answered immediately* I felt as though I was the only person of importance. I was absolutely humbled and grateful when i was scheduled an appointment that very night well after business hours. I don't know if words can express what my tears where saying, I no longer felt, I KNEW that I was not only being given the best possible representation also that I wasn't just another *case*. If these short words can carry any meaning to anyone feeling overwhelmed, confused of your rights or skeptical about seeking legal help. DO NOT HESITATE< you want to know someone is fighting for you someone is making priority of you and your needs. There are many numbers to many Lawyers, it may be difficult to express the feeling when this was the only one that mattered. My endless and most heartfelt sincere thank you to these most learned and deserving defenders.

Sami Brady

Wasatch Defense Lawyers are a godsend. They were able to help a family member of mine who was accused of a crime. I would highly recommend them for your legal needs.

Colten Ellis

Craig and Lane are very professional and informative. I unfortunately found myself in a little bit of trouble with a DUI and Domestic Violence charge and he talked me through everything and made sure I was provided the best possible outcome. The first few lawyers I talked to acted like they were selling a car.. it was “this is your sentence” without giving me a chance to even speak on my behalf. Craig and Lane were the only ones who let me explain my side and trusted what I had to say! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a lawyer.

Y Sampson

I feel the lawyers at Wasatch Defense gave my son's case their best. And although we did not get the out come we had hoped we got very good results. And what I especially like is that they are continuing to help my son after his hearing and sentencing to help with making his time in jail better and fought to get him work release that the jail was threatening not to give him even though it was part of the judge's sentence that he get it. I appreciate that I can call and they return my calls and they will talk to me about things that are appropriate to discuss with me but they never discussed with me things that were confidential to my son and the case. When I attended my son's final hearing there were many attorneys discussing their cases with their clients in the hall and I could hear what they were saying. I really appreciate that Jeanne took my son into a room and discussed his case in private. She does not know how much that meant to me that she has enough respect for her clients to keep information confidential. Thank you for working hard to defend my son and taking into consideration what is most important in his life. And for taking the time to explain the sentence to me and help me what had gone on in the hearing even though I am not the client. Thank you for having consideration of me as a parent. You did and are continuing to do a great job for my son and I might add our entire family.

Elizabeth Maldonado

Craig and his team were very professional and personal. This firm is definitely on top of things and will get the job done and get it done RIGHT! Loved the services and the results behind them.

Greg Holmes

These guys are amazing. I’ve always received just professional help. They treat there customers truly the right way and I can’t say enough how satisfied I am with there service. I’d recommend them to anyone. Thanks for the amazing service.

H Badger

Look no further these gentlemen are undoubtedly an infallible group of defense attorneys I've researched all of them and I'm more than pleased with my choice because they surpassed all of our expectations plus I believe we've made a few lifelong friends at first as anyone would I felt some uncertainty and uneasiness but Lane immediately welcomed us and was extremely receptive to our needs he was there for us committed the entire time let me say that I know we have built a strong bond there were a few times of panic and worry and Lane was right there to comfort and reassure me I trust him with everything not once did I feel like a burden even though I'm sure I was driving them crazy with questions and concerns these guys are sophisticated experienced and most definitely capable of handling the most difficult cases at one point before I met them I felt totally powerless destitute but now thanks to them I can finally breathe and I get to keep my husband and our little family can stay together I'll never be able to repay them for their genuine kindness and hard work in my opinion this was money very well spent love you guys, Haley
