Lane and Scott are amazing. I couldn't imagine how we would've gotten through the most stressful time in our lives without this firm. Lane is an amazing human and he truly does want to educate others and guide them, while always remaining very upfront. Always willing to talk, just listen, provide advice and a laugh when you really need it. I would never ever want to sit on the other side across from these gentlemen. Thank you again.

The Wasatch Defense Lawyers are the best team out there and I recommend them 100% to anyone!! They helped me through a very stressful situation and were able to get my case completely dismissed and my record cleared! I’m sure that if I had not gone to them, things would have resulted very differently. They are worth every penny! The moment I signed with them, a weight lifted off my shoulders because I knew I was in good hands and that they would take care of everything, and they did! I felt that they truly cared about me as an individual. Lane was awesome and kept me informed every step of the way. He always answered my messages promptly and reassured me that everything was going to be ok. Scott was also great and fought for me until the very end. Victoria was great too and was always able to quickly get me an appointment when needed. There were others whose names I don’t remember who also helped. The entire team was amazing!! Thank you so much!! I will forever be grateful!! I’m so glad that I found them through these reviews and want to pay it forward to others looking for an attorney. These guys truly are the best! Go with them. You won’t regret it!

So I want to say that this defense office is outstanding at what they do!! Scott Wilding is the best attorney I have ever encountered!! He has so much passion and drive, as well as strong leadership qualities. He has treated me with the upmost respect. Like I was his family and friend. He invested his heart and intelligence to get me the best deal possible. And let me tell you when all the bases were loaded and it was the bottom of the last inning. He stepped up to the plate and grand slammed it, the ball landed in the stadium parking lot. For reals he did the impossible. Thank you Scott and everyone else that got me through this case!! Just amazing all around. Definitely #1 hands down!!Angel Archuleta

They stood with me through the whole process and even got me bail when everyone said I never would. They also did such an amazing job that in the end the case was dropped. If you need someone to have your back come to them.

I don't think I have enough space here to fully detail how much I appreciate these guys! Here are a few highlights from my experience:Anytime I had a question and reached out to Lane, he responded immediately. I always knew what was happening throughout the process and I had the information I needed.The team provided very realistic expectations for the outcome of my case and I never felt like I was being under-represented. I believe they always had my best intentions in mind while working on my case and provided a sense of calm during a very stressful time which was a relief for me and my family.Their level of professionalism was very confidence inspiring and I am grateful that I choose them to represent me!Edit: even months after my case Ashley has been incredibly helpful!

I want to give a praise report for Wasatch Defense Lawyers. We hired them to defend our son but it turned out that it was a short term experience. We had put up a large sum of money and so my wife and I decided to askfor a Partial refund. They granted that to us. To me this shows good business principles and integrity. Thank you Wasatch defense lawyers.

Honest and transparent. When all was said and done my attorney and also the staff at Wasatch Defense Lawyers proved to be hardworking and transparent when communicating information to me. That’s all you can ask for in any company- especially a law office that you expect to have your best interests at heart. Don’t hesitate to call Wasatch Defense if you’re in a jam.

I've never felt compelled to write a google review before, but since the reviews on here are the reason I chose to go with this firm I wanted to add one to help anyone in a similar position as myself. Obviously anyone in need of these kinds of services is going through a terrible time in their life and the last thing you need is to go with a firm that will only increase your stress. From the time I walked through the doors for my consultation I knew this was the best place to be. I was immediately treated with the respect and dignity I had felt was lost to me, but to them I was a human like anyone else that was just in need of help and support, and they didn't hesitate to offer that to me. Through the entire process I always felt heard and understood and I knew that I had an entire team at my back helping me through the hardest time in my life. I wouldn't hesitate to go with them at any point in the future or to recommend them to any family or friend in need of their help. Do yourself the biggest favor you possibly could and get this team on your side.

Navigating the intricacies of legal situations can be a daunting task, especially when compounded by challenging circumstances. In such times, it's a blessing to encounter a professional like Lane. From our very first meeting, it was evident that Lane is not just knowledgeable but deeply empathetic and understanding.Lane took the time to truly grasp the complexities of my situation, lending not just his expertise but also an attentive ear and a reassuring presence. It's rare to come across someone who can seamlessly blend professionalism with genuine compassion, but Lane does exactly that. He ensured I received the representation I deserved and diligently worked to get my situation resolved.To anyone in need of paralegal services, I wholeheartedly recommend Lane. His dedication, warmth, and expertise are unparalleled. Thank you, Lane, for turning what could have been an overwhelming experience into a manageable and even reassuring one. Your dedication and support have made all the difference.

I just wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to the team who assisted me with my legal questions over the phone. Their prompt response and willingness to help me comprehend the legal complexities truly impressed me.Not only did they patiently explain the legal issues I was facing, but they also took the time to clarify why any misjudgment or misunderstanding on my part would not result in criminal charges. This reassurance alleviated a great deal of stress and anxiety that had been weighing on me.I have learned a valuable lesson through this experience - the importance of good intentions being misunderstood and the potential disastrous consequences that can arise. However, thanks to the guidance and support of this remarkable team, I now have a better understanding of how to navigate similar situations in the future without jeopardizing myself.I am incredibly grateful for their expertise and dedication to helping individuals like myself. The fact that they have agreed to meet with me next week, free of charge, to further educate me on how I can continue assisting others while safeguarding myself from potential jeopardy is truly remarkable.Once again, thank you to the entire team for their outstanding assistance, unwavering support, and for helping me find peace of mind in a challenging situation.

How Your Criminal Defense Attorney Protects Your Rights 

If you find yourself entangled in the Utah state or U.S. federal trial process, hiring an experienced criminal defense lawyer will become the most important thing you do to protect yourself. It is a decision that often stands between defendants remaining free, without a criminal record, and being convicted of a serious crime and receiving the state’s most severe punishments. An experienced defense attorney knows how to defend all your rights and works to create the best possible strategy for winning your case.

Your lawyer guides you through the Utah court system and stands up for you in court. Your attorney manages your case to ensure that all state and federal laws are observed and that all court rules are followed meticulously throughout the legal process. That prevents having your case delayed, postponed, or having you penalized due to mismanagement of the process.

If you are facing federal charges, your case becomes even more serious. You will need the best federal criminal defense lawyer available to navigate the U.S. district court system and work to build a winning defense for you.
