Gregory B. Smith

Lead Criminal Defense Attorney

An Experienced Utah Criminal Defense Lawyer on Your Side

With over 25 years of dedicated legal practice, Gregory B. Smith is a formidable advocate for individuals facing criminal charges throughout Utah. Recognized for his masterful negotiation skills and comprehensive legal knowledge, Greg has built a reputation for securing exceptional results while maintaining fair and transparent pricing. His approach is simple: provide top-tier legal defense that is both effective and accessible.

From DUI and assault charges to complex federal cases, Greg’s primary goal is to resolve matters efficiently and favorably, protecting your rights and your future. He understands that knowing the law is only half the battle; knowing how to navigate difficult situations and work with people is what truly sets a defense attorney apart.

A Client-Centered Approach to Legal Defense

At our firm, we believe everyone deserves access to quality legal representation. This principle has guided Greg since the beginning of his career.

Fair & Affordable Rates: We are committed to reasonable rates and financial transparency. To ease the burden on our clients, we offer flexible, interest-free payment plans.
Trust-Based Representation: Unlike many firms that demand large upfront retainers, we often begin work based on trust, allowing you to pay as you go. Your focus should be on your case, not financial stress.
Prompt & Clear Communication: We demand that every member of our team returns communications promptly and provides the highest level of legal representation. Our firm’s A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau reflects this commitment to client service.

Unmatched Experience and Respected Expertise

Greg’s extensive background provides a unique courtroom advantage. His career began over two decades ago in prosecutorial work, giving him invaluable insight into how the other side builds a case. This experience, combined with his involvement in thousands of cases across multiple legal disciplines, allows him to spot critical issues that other attorneys might miss.

His wide-ranging expertise includes:

Criminal Defense (State and Federal)
Appeals and Post-Conviction Relief
DUI / DWI Defense
Divorce and Family Law
Professional Licensing Defense
Contract and Business Law

As a “lawyer’s lawyer,” Greg not only teaches continuing legal education seminars to other attorneys but has also personally trained dozens of legal professionals. His respected insights have been featured twice on Good Morning America, and his editorials have been published in newspapers nationwide.

From the Football Field to the Courtroom

Greg’s drive and discipline were honed long before law school. As a two-time high school class president and a college football player at BYU, he learned the value of teamwork, strategic thinking, and achieving high goals. While his BYU team won a National Championship, Greg learned to fight and win within the rules—a skill he now applies to the legal field.

Today, instead of the football field, his arena is the courtroom. He channels that same focus and competitive spirit into advocating for his clients, fighting to ensure they receive justice.

If you are navigating the Utah legal system, you need an attorney who is not only a master of the law but also a skilled negotiator and a compassionate advocate. Gregory B. Smith and our team are here to help you achieve the best result.
